Blurb:

Liam Harrington has more evil in him than the devil himself. His daughter? My wife? Well, she’s being groomed to take his place on the throne of fire.

I fell for everything. They trapped me, convinced Sam to spy on me, and now I’m roped into something closely resembling the Hunger Games.…

They dangled her in front of me, and now they’ve taken her away…

Because they know she’s my weakness and I will do anything to get her back. But Liam missed one little detail…I’m not his puppet.

I am a Cold. Ruthless. Killer.

And what happens when you try and put someone like me in a cage? I will burn your whole f***ing empire to the ground.

About the Author

****USA TODAY BEST SELLING AUTHOR****

I was born in Manly on the Northern Beaches in Sydney, Australia and grew up in the west after we moved there to help my brother’s eczema which was made worse by salt air. I now reside in the beautiful sunny state of Queensland when we are not travelling.

One of the highlights of my life was being accepted into Nursing just before my 16th birthday. It had been a long-time dream and one which encompassed 37 years of my life. Along with nursing, being married to my very own book boyfriend, a Naval Officer, for almost 48 years, and posted in numerous places, gave me experiences which I have written into many of my books.

We enjoy traveling the country with our Caravan/RV and 17 young Jack Russell called Gemma-Jean.

My books are in various genres – Western Historical Romance-both steamy and sweet, Contemporary Romance-steamy and sweet, Male/Male, Australian Outback and City Romance. I also have one menage and one paranormal romance along with two children’s books. As I said earlier, I have a rather overactive imagination.

I hope you will pick up one of my books and when you close the cover on one of my stories it will be with a satisfied sigh.

BLURB:

I’ve walked in more than one pair of shoes being head of my family. I’ve shouldered the whispers, and rumors that surrounded my father, but I’ve never confronted what was right in front of me…the secrets. It’s time to stop ignoring the obvious. If I don’t, I’m going to lose the one person who single handily drug me from the darkness. I can’t go back now that I’ve seen the light.

Dani… one simple name rights me every single time. Sonny’s slipping away from me. I can feel it, see it, hear it. It’s surrounding us. His family holds the answers and at times I feel I unwillingly am a part of the secrets.

She’s still stalking him even after death.

Jess… will he ever get over her. Or will it simply be him getting over me.
