BLURB

Many sins lay in the creases of my hands. Darkness and corruption are part of my life.

After hints from my brother that all is not right with the family business, I leave Mexico and return to Vegas. I have a responsibility to protect what’s ours, no matter the price or who gets in the way. Those who don't fall in line will soon realize why I’m called The Vegas Reaper.

I demand order and obedience, so when I come head-to-head with our beautiful new hire, I’m faced with an unusual challenge, one that infuriates yet intrigues me.

When my hotel goes up in flames, my anger flares along with it. I pull on my cut and join The Devils Reach. The desert ride pays off, but there’s more at play here than I ever imagined, and I’m caught in a chess game of power from an unseen force. Deception, secrets, and chaos threaten my world. Could our new hire hold the key to it all?

___________

Warning: This story is meant to be read in the reading order that can be found in my Amazon bio and website. There is a heavy crossover from my Devil’s Reach Trilogy through the Quiet Mafia Series, and my Dark Water Series, where Grim is first introduced.

This is intended for 18+, violent, may contain trigger warnings, and of course…ends with a cliffhanger.

Ryder

Two years of silence and no goodbye—she slipped away and through my fingers, leaving me with nothing but questions… and a heavy heart from missing her.

I know what we had was real, that our love was once in a lifetime.

Now she’s back from her Parisian fashion internship, and I'm ready for answers, desperate to understand why she couldn't just stay.

Jordyn

When I walked away, it was to protect him. Yet, all he knows, all he cares about, is that I left. Coming home is a bittersweet journey, each step heavier than the last.

I want to give him the answers he so desperately craves, and this time, I’ll get to say goodbye. However, what I didn’t plan on was Ryder’s fight. He’s not going to let me go so easily this time.

Runaway Omega by Ember L. Nicole

 

Runaway Omega, an obsessed hero omegaverse tale from Ember L. Nicole is here!

One Click your copy here!

Blurb:

Mom told me I was a beta.

She lied.

I’m an omega.

I'd always lived a quiet, ordinary life. I never expected anything special would happen to me, but after I present as an omega, my whole world changes. I lose my home, my family, and even my identity. Then there’s the alpha my mom promised me to. A man as wealthy as he is cruel.

Now I live in a gilded cage, my life full of constant abuse, and one I dream of escaping. When my alpha throws yet another party to show me off, I see a chance to run and take it. Society says no omega can last long without her alpha, but after a year spent covering bruises, I’m willing to risk it. And if I go into heat? I’ll deal with that problem when I’m far, far away from him.

In my desperate bid for freedom, I run into three hot-as-hell alphas who smell as good as they look. Not only do they notice my bruises, they can’t miss the way I flinch away from their touch. Yet to my surprise, when trouble hurtles our way, they take over my escape and carry me away to their mansion. I’ll be safe there, they say. I wish I could believe them.

These men seem to want to protect me, but I know all the cruel things one alpha is capable of. But being at the mercy of three of them?

Runaway Omega is a standalone non-shifter Omegaverse. It features 3 sweet & protective alphas caring for an abused & traumatized omega in need of love & healing. It contains explicit sexual content including group scenes and DVP. There is no MM in this book. Suitable for readers over 18.

Trigger Warnings:

Contains darker themes including: human trafficking, abduction, discussions about fertility, SA (not from harem), abuse (physical, mental, and emotional—not from harem), forced institutionalization (not from harem), controlling of food (not by harem) which leads to disordered eating.

This story had me so intrigued and I was not disappointed. From the angst to the emotions that all roll throughout the story, Nicole blew me away with this one. I loved the concept and the characters. The push and pull and how it all played out. Each one brings something different to the table when it comes to their personalities to Everleigh and how she grows as a character. I love how it ended as well. Leaves you wanting more but being completely satisfied as well!

Author Bio:

Ember loves sweet heroes who know how to take care of their girl, both in and out of the bedroom.

She was the epitome of forbidden fruit.

And I wanted a taste.

Liam

Being the oldest Ravage brother means I’ve always been the fixer, handling everyone else’s mess.

But the one problem I can’t solve?

Keeping my hands off my best friend’s daughter.

Hidden away in my remote cabin, writing is my escape until duty thrusts her into my life.

Over the years, Zoe evolves into a tempting taboo–the one person I crave but can never claim, despite what she tells me about her… inclinations.

I vowed protection at any cost–even if it’s from myself.

Zoe

Orphaned and thrust into adulthood, I bury myself in school work and keep my eyes trained on the prize.

Now, with law school and an uncertain future looming, I’m used to doing everything myself and pushing back against Liam’s stoic, overprotective resolve.

Until I learn that the vanilla, cinnamon roll of a man I’ve known my whole life isn't so vanilla after all.

Now, instead of infuriating me, his strict, commanding presence sends shivers down my spine.

I soon realize his resistance was never about denying desire for him–it was about fulfilling a different kind of hunger.

Ward Willing is a full-length, age gap, billionaire romance with BDSM themes. It is book three in the Ravaged Castle series. All books can be read as standalones.

Warning: This book contains an overprotective/possessive hero, explicit sexual situations, and strong language. There is a HEA.

Pretty Dependable by Lacey Black

Tropes: Small Town/Single Mom/Friends to Lovers

Release Date: December 12, 2023

BLURB

Ellie

Being a single mom is the most challenging, yet rewarding job I’ve ever had. Especially in a small town, where everyone knows your story, or at least their version of it.

They say it takes a village, and they’re right. I’ve been lucky to have close friends to help me raise my son, Brody. One particular friend stands out above the rest. TD stepped up in a big way, teaching my son everything a father should. That’s why his friendship means so much to me. Brody and I both rely on his friendship. Any feelings I have for my sexy friend must stay buried. It’s safer that way.

Turns out, it’s much harder to do when he decides he’s done being just my friend. He wants more.

TD

There’s nothing worse than being in lust with one of your friends. For years, I’ve been fighting my attraction to Ellie and keeping it a secret. I thought I was doing what was best for all of us.

Between working as the local police officer and coaching high school football, I’m left with very little downtime, but what I do have is spent with Ellie and her son. When I find out the seventeen-year-old boy might be working to get this football coach and his mom together, all bets are off. With Brody on my side, I’m willing to take the chance and blur the lines between friends and lovers.

I have to make her see we can have it all. Despite her reservations, I’ll show her love is worth the risk.
