  A mail order bride agency is a perfect solution to her dilemma, but is there any man who would want a jaded, “no longer fresh” 27 year old woman?

  Eli does not want to be tied to one woman. Never has, never will. But the wealthy bear shifting saloon (Ahem… brothel) owner finds that the ladies in his establishment won’t take no for an answer. A wife on his arm would best keep them at bay. A wife in name only, of course.

  It’s a business transaction. A sensible woman is what he needs, and on paper Lilly looks perfect. Older, widowed, she’s not some young virginal harpy preoccupied with illusions of love and dreams of romance.

  Unfortunately, once his bride to be arrives, Eli can think of little else but disrobing her and claiming her as his wife in every sense of the word.

  DRAGON KEEPER

  Kaitlyn is a small town girl with dreams of making it in L.A. But, it seems her full body and soft curves don't mesh with bleach-blonde, plastic-boobed, stick-figure girls at auditions.

  As successful as he is as a man, as a dragon Brett has failed to do what every dragon must do lest they go insane- find his treasure.

  Kaitlyn soon learns that her employer’s chiseled jawline, dark hair and bedroom eyes don't make up for his mood swings and outlandish behavior. She's not sure what the wants from her, but when she sees whips, chains and shackles, she knows it can't be good.

  ZAREK (DRAGONS OF PLARIZAKIAN)

  When Alien Warrior Weredragon Zarek Rav meets curvy biologist Aubrey Moss, sparks fly!

  As the newest biologist at Gen-Ex, mousy Aubrey Moss wants nothing more than to please the president of the research facility, her domineering and overbearing father.

  But, despite being the top female research biologist in the country, she still can’t seem to escape his demeaning jabs and cutting insults.

  When Aubrey is tasked with a job that no one at the facility has been able to achieve, retrieving samples from one of the research subjects, an extra-terrestrial called Zarek Rav, her attraction to him is so powerful, it overwhelms her.

  Zarek’s planet is destroyed, his people on the hunt for a new home. When Zarek is wounded, the Parizakians are forced to leave him behind to shuttle the others to safety. But they’ll return, and when they do….

  …they will destroy all who oppose them.

  Zarek need only bide his time before he will leave Earth and be reunited with his people. The last thing he expected to find on this obscure planet was a mate. But, the human female called Aubrey with her thick, soft curves, beautiful smile and warm heart initiates an attraction deep inside of the warrior that is stronger than anything he has ever felt.

  When the fate of millions rest in Aubrey’s hands, will she defy her father’s wishes to help Zarek return to his people? Will Zarek and his people accept her into their fold?

  Can a young, widowed mother find love with a dragon intent on guarding the gold running through his mountain during the California gold rush of 1849?

  Zedekiah has inhabited his mountain for centuries. Long before the miner 49ers came to town.

  DRAGON’S CLAIM

  Now, he is forced to broker out sections of his mountain to miners intent on striking it rich. His goal to blend with the regular folks, to appear acceptable in their eyes is tenuous.

  Zed harbors a secret that must be kept under wraps. Yet, there are rumors about town, whispers of the “monster of the mountain”, tales of screeching cries sometimes heard in the night, and lately odd looks aimed his way.

  Paulette’s husband died on their journey west, two weeks shy of reaching their destination. Now, Paulette is left in a strange mining town with an infant and dwindling finances.

  What are her options? Darning or washing? No, this town isn’t filled with folks looking for that kind of thing. Prostitution? Surely, prostitutes were in high demand, but that only led to one thing — illness and death.

  For Paulette and Zed, a marriage of convenience is a perfect answer.

  A business transaction.

  Only, hearts have a way of following their own path.
