What happens when a soldier falls in love with the shifter he’s been sent to kill?
In post-nuclear Manhattan, there are two kinds of survivors: humans and shifters.
Cage
After his older brother Ben was killed by shifters, Cage followed in Ben’s footsteps and joined the military. His job is simple: protect the surviving civilians in the wreckage of Manhattan and put down the dangerous shifter mutants prowling the streets. Bitter with revenge, he can’t wait for a chance to get even with the monsters who killed his brother.
Bindi
Half-wolf, half-human Bindi is one of Cage’s monsters. She lives underground, hiding away from military patrols and protecting the ragtag pack of shifter children who have come to depend on her. She’d do anything to get out of the city and get her pack to safety, but nobody gets in - or out - of this city.
On Christmas Eve, Cage catches Bindi - in human form - stealing extra rations for her pack. In a moment of pity he lets her go, but not without being struck by a sense that there’s something special about her. Something… different.
*** a Shifter Romance Series that will pull at your heartstrings ***
When he finally discovers her secret, Cage must decide what’s more important to him – finally avenging his brother, or saving the woman he’s come to love. And Bindi will learn a lesson about humanity... and about love.

Excerpt:
Nim growls, his black fur bristling, his haunches tense. The soldier raises his gun, and fear tears through my whole body.
I throw myself at the soldier, coming up with a plan as I move.
“Help!” I cry out as I crash into him. I knock him off balance and his gun fires. I’m terrified that he’s hit Nim, but I can’t look back to see. My hands are against his chest, clutching at his arms.
The shock comes, again, through my body. It hits the soldier too, I can see it in his gold-streaked eyes. Something between us arcs hot and electric, and it makes me dizzy, but I can’t let him go. Nim needs to get away.
“Help me! Please!” I cry. The soldier finally gets his bearings and shoves me off of him, aiming his gun. I turn to look, fright choking me so hard I can’t breathe. But Nim is already at the end of the alleyway, darting off down the street.
The soldier kneels quickly at the side of the injured man. I don’t think he’ll live. Nim slashed into him pretty deep. I watch him as he checks the dead man’s pulse, unable to stop myself from noticing his strong arms, his broad shoulders. I swallow my desire back inside. Now is not the time.
Then the soldier looks up at me, his face stricken with anger.
He knows. He knows what I am. I’m sure of it.

My new adult vampire romance novel is available now!
Billionaire playboy Robert Chatham is as bloodthirsty as it gets. Snarky and self-obsessed, he has a new girl every day of the week. What the London tabloids don’t know is the reason Robb acts like a lady-killer: to avoid having to kill them. A four-hundred year old vampire, he feeds and moves on, never getting attached to any girl.
Until Liz.
A shy American transplant in the heart of London, Liz is slaving away on her grad school project: working to find a cure for the blood cancer that her younger sister died from years ago. Dead focused on her studies, she’s more interested in the chemistry of hemoglobin than in the chemistry between her and any guy.
Until Robb.
After an old vampire friend comes asking for a favor, Robb has to choose between repaying a life debt and chasing after the one girl who’s broken through his emotional walls. And when Liz stumbles upon evidence that seems to solve the puzzle of his mysterious seclusion, she confronts him in his lab. Only the dark secret she thought she had uncovered turns out to be something even more terrifying.
With a dead body in the trunk of his Porsche and a vial of cancerous blood in the pocket of her lab coat, Robb and Liz are heading for a collision course that will change both of their lives forever…
Excerpt:
"Liz pushed herself away from the embrace. The connection between them snapped as their lips broke apart, and Robb stood in front of her, his hands outstretched, looking concerned.
“Wait one second,” Liz said. Her thoughts whipped through her brain in a hurricane of confusion.
“Of course,” Robb said. He touched her elbow, letting his fingertips run down her arm and to her wrist. She struggled to breathe normally. Pangs of sheer lust threatened to overwhelm her body after that kiss. She hadn’t wanted to stop—no, she should kiss him back—no, she mustn’t—
“Please,” she said weakly. She didn’t even know what she was asking for. A moment to breathe. A moment to regain her senses, to make the world clear again. Robb’s cologne was so strong! The scent of it dizzied her.
“We can go slowly,” Robb said. He put both of his hands up and rested them gently on her shoulders. Liz instinctively leaned forward, then caught herself.
“I don’t…I don’t think this is right,” she said. She was trying to remember the reason that she didn’t want Robb to take her to bed. All of her logical reasoning, however, seemed to be overtaken by the warm flashes of desire that kept bringing her focus back to Robb’s flushed face and full, eager lips.
“Liz, let’s not pretend either of us doesn’t want this,” Robb said. His hand caressed her cheek and then circled back around, his fingertips teasing the edge of her earlobe. The skin there was so sensitive that she felt that at any second she would faint with pleasure. “Give in. I’ll leave the project for now. I’ll—”
“No!”
Liz furrowed her brow, feeling conflicted with her body’s instinct.
“I wanted to work at your lab because it’s the best in the world,” she said. She heard her own voice rising, growing tense. She felt a million miles away. “You can’t sacrifice the project for this!”
“No, no,” he said, his tone reassuring. “Not at all. The project will continue, don’t worry. I would only leave if you wanted me to. Or if you felt uncomfortable….”
Liz did feel uncomfortable, but she didn’t know why. There was something too slick about the way he was talking to her, as though he was telling her what she wanted to hear, nothing else. His desire seemed real enough. That kiss—oh! That kiss!—seemed real enough. As she wavered, he wove her fingers into his and drew her close. She could not help herself from leaning into his embrace. He reached up and gently slid off the tie from her ponytail, letting her hair loose.
