“I was here on business,” Reed shouted.
“What do you mean?” she wondered.
“The investors I brought on own a property out here. It’s got the facilities I need to get things up and running. And since it’s already part of their portfolio, they’re willing to lease it to me at a substantial discount in exchange for a portion of future profits.” He sighed. “It’s been in the works for a while, but I didn’t want to say anything—”
“Until you knew for sure.” An enormous grin broke over her face as she finished his thought.
Could this really be happening?
Simon joined her, since he had all the pieces too.
“Well, guys, there’s one thing I know for certain already.” She choked on the admission. “I’ve missed every one of you like hell. And…I love you. Each of you for who you are separately and I’m extra in love with you for what you’re like together. We have something that works between us. Hell, we’ve practically been in a damn relationship for the past four years, just without sex. What fun is that?”
Actually, it had been amazing. And it could only get better.
She continued, “I know we still have a lot to work on. The other issues you guys raised about turning this relationship into a forever thing are still going to be hurdles we have to clear. But I’m willing to figure it out if you are. What do you say?”
“I say I love you too, Andi. I don’t care how we have to do it, but I’m committed to making it work.” Reed charged to her and swooped her into his arms. He kissed her until she was dizzy before handing her off to Cooper, then Simon, who convinced her they felt the same way without having to say a single word.
“So I only have one question then…” Simon said with a smirk when he had taken his fill. “How big is your bed?”
“Pretty sure we’re going to need a new one.” She laughed then, thinking of the four of them jammed onto the queen-sized mattress, which had seemed enormous—and empty—the night before.
“Damn straight. And I hope you don’t have plans for the rest of the weekend. We’re not leaving this house until you remember what it’s like to belong to us,” Reed swore.
“Sounds good. Besides, it’s been a bitch having to do my own laundry, cook, pay bills, and take care of my car. I’m spoiled and I like it that way.” She couldn’t say that without cracking a smile. Though she’d only been teasing, they didn’t seem to mind.
“You haven’t seen anything yet,” Cooper promised right before he kissed the shit out of her. The happiness that fizzed through her veins eclipsed anything she’d felt before, proving his point quite nicely.
“You know, that sounded kind of sexist, Andi. Not like you…” Reed lectured with an evil twist to the corner of his lips.
“I am a bad girl now. Maybe you should spank me for it.”
“Maybe I should.” He stalked closer with a growl that didn’t scare her in the least. But she shrieked and let him chase her around their new home—any place they were together would deserve that title—for a little while before getting caught.
After all, anticipation made things so much sweeter.
She knew that from experience.

Attraction, fear, danger—an unlikely recipe for healing scars.
Men in Blue, Book 5
In the year since Ellie escaped The Scientist’s ghastly dungeon, she still can’t stop looking over her shoulder. Or stop feeling guilty over the man who sacrificed so much to save her.
He lost everything. His career, his aspirations—even part of his body. It’s no wonder he wants nothing to do with her. Too bad he’s the only man she can think about.
Lucas has vowed to stay away from Ellie, but not for the reason she thinks. The woman he craves doesn’t need to waste her life taking care of a man with a missing leg, not when she needs to focus on her own healing.
Despite the best matchmaking attempts of the Men in Blue—and their wives—the emotional and physical gap between them seems uncrossable. Until Ellie is threatened again, and the only choice is to work together until she’s safe.
But to stay in the land of the living, they’ll both have to fight through their pain—and relive a few nightmares—to guarantee their demons won’t destroy her future.
Warning: Contains an alpha male with a broken body, but whose best bits are in fine working order. And a woman who survived hell, and is determined to fit enough of their jagged edges together to make a whole. Vivid PTSD flashbacks of sexual violence could be disturbing for some readers.
Perfect isn’t a destination. But the journey can be one hot ride.
Hot Rods, Book 7
As the planner for the Hot Rods’ quadruple wedding—one of which involves her sister, Nola—Amber Brown needs every ounce of her formidable attention to detail. Which is just fine with her.
She’s a teensy bit envious of the raw sexual power contained within the Hot Rods’ polyamorous circle. But after watching her mother suffer the heartache of her father’s death, Amber won’t risk her heart, not even for the super-sexy lawyer on the guest list.
Gavyn has handled enough divorce cases to witness the horrors people who supposedly loved each other can inflict. Yet when he assists Amber with the wedding prep in exchange for her advice on his new venture, it’s hard to ignore the s
team rising between them.
Finally, they agree to a single night of strings-free sex. Except one taste isn’t enough to curb their hunger. Until Amber makes a shocking discovery that sours her appetite for the man she thought could satisfy her for a lifetime. And leaves Gavyn negotiating desperately for a future he never thought he craved.
Warning: Powerful emotions, like love—or self-loathing—can be intense to witness. But rescuing someone from soul-deep bitterness is worth the risk.
Some hearts can be repaired. Others should just be totaled.
Hot Rods, Book 6
Carver always thought he could sense when Roman was on the verge of falling into his inner darkness. But this time, Carver misses those cues—and leads the police on a high-speed race to the ER, praying his Barracuda won’t die on the way.
When Roman awakens from the haze of painkillers and alcohol, he already knows the question poised on Carver’s lips. Was it an accident—or did he deliberately dance on the edge of death? How can he tell Meep that lust and laughter are no longer enough to help him cope with the rapid changes among the Hot Rods?
Part of him is happy for them. The other part is pissed. Because what he’s always wanted is Carver all to himself. Much as he loves his brother mechanics, sharing isn’t his strong suit.
Roman needs time—and distance—to get his head on straight. The only question is, when Roman comes home from rehab, will Carver still love the man he has become—or will their roads have diverged too far to cross each other again?
Warning: Contains full-throttle emotion, pedal-to-the-metal sex, and an answer to the age-old question—can there ever be too many mechanics under the hood?
