Asa isn’t about to let the skinny man he finds in the desert die. And when Virgil recovers, Asa thinks maybe he’s found a soul mate, just like his friends Tak and Loko have found in each other. Through everyday life and a series of ever more erotic lessons, Asa thinks he can teach Virgil that love shouldn’t have boundaries. Can Virgil accept the plans that Asa, with the help of his friends, have for his future?

Horace is a loner, a mountain man with a claim to a tiny stream of gold and a lonely cabin in the woods. When he finds young Walker wandering lost in his mountains just before the snow flies, he decides he's found exactly the kind of companionship he craves. Walker is young, naive, and totally unprepared for the kinds of amusements Horace has in store for him. Good thing he's willing to try new things, because Horace has a stern hand and a fine sense of adventure, showing Walker things he'd never dreamed of. But what will come when the spring thaw melts all that snow?

Reformed from his days as a bank robber and killer, Preacher rides the badlands with his crew of misfits, doing God's work and spreading the good word. He's not sure everyone can be saved, but he's determined to try. Despite his friends, which include a three-legged dog, a mute Apache and a flatulent Englishman, he gets lonely on the trail, so it seems a gift from above when Hawk shows up, trail worn and needing some good grub and a friendly face. Hawk is a scarred cowboy with a past he can't remember, and he thinks Preacher might be the answer to the itch he can't quite scratch. He's been alone a long time, and finds it hard to trust, but Preacher seems to bring out the best in him, helping him become the man he didn't know he wanted to be. Together, with the help of Preacher's old friend and mentor, Jett, and Hawk's amazing horse Fred, they face an evil like the world has never seen. They ride to the very mouth of Hell itself, all but losing themselves to forces they're not sure they can beat. Can they survive Redemption's Ride?

That’s why it sucks so hard when she tears her rotator cuff and has to spend most of her senior year not playing, not practicing, not doing much of anything but watching Kaylee cheer and flirt with her quarterback boyfriend. As with besties, Kaylee sets Charley up for homecoming. It’s a nice enough date until Brant confides in her that he’s glad Charley’s "like him."

Like him? What the hell does that mean?

Charley needs to figure out what’s going on in her body, in her life, and most importantly, in her heart.

Part of the The Cowboy and the Dom series:
  • First Rodeo
  • Razor's Edge
  • No Ghosts
  • The Soldier and the Angel

When a killer strikes, Texan and former rodeo cowboy, Sam O’Reilly, loses his older brother. Unbeknownst to Sam, James was also the lover and sub of a sophisticated New York City Dom named Thomas Ward. Sam comes to the city determined to stay until he can bring the murderer to his own brand of justice, while Thomas’ more ordered mind is hoping for a legal solution. Neither man expects their connection to the other, but having each lost someone irreplaceable, their hearts are crying out for comfort almost as loudly as their bodies are screaming for each other.

Some yearnings refuse to be ignored, but transcending their differences to explore the fragile connection between them will prove to be a steep a hill to climb--the first of many. As Sam and Thomas take the first tentative steps on the rocky path that might lead to a relationship, the killer steps out of the shadows...And this time, his sights are set on Sam.

Note to our readers: Each of the three books in The Cowboy and the Dom series has a fully realized, romantic ending. However, the overarching suspense element will leave readers on a cliffhanger after books one and two, to be fully resolved in book three.

Halian has been sent by his pack to find another shifter, one he thinks he might be a little in love with. When he finds out his friend has mated with another wolf, he’s wrecked, but that only lasts long enough for big bear Nathan to… sniff him. They fall for each other quickly, but no one is sure a wolf and bear can be mates, especially Nathan and Halian.
