Travis, Lex, Gen, Amara, and the rest made the bleak outlook of Cobra’s former life feel like a distant memory. The strength and support and respect he found on the daily now turned the memories of Klay and Tyler into an outrageous regret. One so grave, he could barely believe that had formed the bulk of his life.
Before this. Before Gen. Before love had softened and changed him.
Cobra scooped up her hand and brought it to his lips.
Before he’d found his future.

Breaking The Rules
Book #1 in The Breaking Series
Successful owner of Holt Body Fitness, Travis Holt has one thing on his mind: winning his upcoming fight. Amped up on adrenaline and machismo, Travis is the favored competitor. Nothing can throw him off his game. But when his best friend's kid sister rolls back into town, all bets are off. The meek and sweet little girl has grown into a woman that Travis cannot resist.
Moving back to LA isn't exactly what Amara Valenzuela wants in life. After all, the life she left was full of flirtation, fun, and flings—all without the watchful eye of her overly protective big brother. But when her mother gets sick, Amara knows that she must be there for her family. Reconnecting with Travis Holt is just a bright light in her dismal relocation.
As Amara starts training at Holt Fitness, one thing is certain: Travis and Amara can't deny their attraction. In a room full of hot, hard, sweaty bodies, these two have more than fitness on their minds. Travis knows the rules; Amara is off limits. Frankly, Amara is damn sick of letting her big brother call the shots. She wants Travis for a night of passion and pleasure—whether her brother likes it or not. Will the undefeated MMA fighter be strong enough to resist the charms of his best friend's sexy and sweet little sister or will trying to win her heart be the showdown of his life?

Enemies-to-Lovers Erotic Romance

Paige Alexander, successful host of A New York Minute, adores her job and will do anything to save the show that’s her brainchild. But when IBC, fronted by Josh Lambert, buys NYCBC, Paige’s show is cancelled, and her choices are unemployment or a non-starring role on a new show co-hosted by Jerk Lambert, a man who makes her hotter than hell in every way.
Having scaled the golden rungs of the corporate ladder, Josh doesn’t do relationships or complicated. Promised a multimillion dollar payday if he turns Wakin’ Up—the show that replaced Paige’s—into a hit, Josh kisses uncomplicated goodbye when she shows up. The woman fascinates and terrifies in equal measure, and he’s suddenly questioning the value of gold versus the value of her.
Forced together in an Hawaiian paradise, the steam just keeps rising—on set, in the sauna, and in the narrowing distance between them.

When passionate nighttime encounters flare between them, Garrett begins to question what he’d risk to keep Rose.
