My name is Jordan Sutton, a highly educated forty-two-year-old spinster. I have to tell you… I freaking hate that word but… it is what it is, no use busting my balls over it. Either way, it doesn’t matter. I can hold my own among any chick half my age… and I’ll have you know— I’ll do it wearing my fave stilettos! I’ve been a co-owner of The Red Reign PI Agency but as an ex-army ranger and an expert strategist in counter terrorism, here I am, stuck back in Iraq. Yeah, I allowed the FBI to suck me back in to catch one of the most notorious terrorists on their hit list. And wouldn’t you know it … I ended up caught and chained up by the very asshat I went to find in Iraq. But it’s no sweat, I don’t break and can crawl through mud and live fire with the best of them and yet, there’s this delusional Black Ops muscle head who believes I need him to save me. It’s time he faces reality. My name is Brock Carter. I’m a forty-six-year-old widower with my path littered with the conquests of sexy kittens. I must admit that there is one left— a black-haired tauntress with an unusual carnal flavor known yet untasted that has provoked my appetite and inflamed my libido. Anyway, I’m co-owner of a covert Black Ops group called, The Cobras. We’re on the trail of the most feared Mafia Boss the U.S. has ever encountered and it’s a case that requires all our attention. Now, because of the Red Reign kitties strong arming terrorists, our attention is divided… something we can’t afford. Not to mention that seductress I told you about… yeah, the little naiad had to go dune surfing in Iraq and got herself captured. It’s time to set her straight and convince her that a pretty kitty should be purring… preferably in my bed. I haven’t found the right words yet to beckon her, but when I do, I’ll be looking for that lightning left hook she’s got. Even so, it’s time she faces reality.

“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die . . . A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.” War has come to Algoran. The Gulstaa nation is determined to expand their territory with merciless resolve. Their end goal is revenge for a past defeat — they want to conquer the Mountain Mokta and anyone else in their way. Jordan SnowFire is now the Mokta Chieftess. She has the daunting task of stopping a conflict she never asked for. Will she seek the wisdom of God or the wisdom of her tribe? What impact will the blood of SnowFire flowing through her veins have on the way she conducts this war? How far will she go to protect her family and the Mokta people? Meanwhile, Erica Melendez finds herself trapped in the middle of the hostilities. Tragedy forces her away from the Ullvarr village and into circumstances she never imagined when she came to this world. Can she survive long enough to be reunited with Jordan? Loyalties are tested. Decisions are made. And Algoran will never be the same after Jordan’s Arrow finds its target.

A tiny country roughly the size of Indiana, Jordan has enjoyed a stable government throughout its 80-year history and has been a significant force in a tumultuous part of the world. Led by Hussein ibn Tallal for more than 40 years, the country built a strong economy, expanded personal freedoms, and assumed a key role in Middle Eastern affairs. Jordan is home to the ancient city of Petra, an archaeological site that remained unknown until 1812. Referred to in the Bible as Sela, Petra's structures were created by carving into the solid, rose-colored rocks. In 1985, it was designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, and in 2007, it was named one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. -- Publisher description.

One Castle Seven Masters Seven Dungeons Seven Times the Kink “I should warn you, Master Eagle, I bite and have been known to scratch.” Peyton Jackson was a Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist, the best in her field, but in Castle Sin, she was known only as Sub PJ. Peyton had stayed away from the ocean for a reason, yet there she was, on a remote island in Key West, surrounded by the sea, gazing at the majestic castle meant to become her home … at least, that’s what she made the seven Masters believe … In reality, she was there for only one reason: to get her cousin off the island. One unexpected perk … or detriment … was that it placed her directly in the sights of her biggest celeb crush. In contrast to finding herself wanting to please her Master at every turn, she also smelled a story, a scoop … and she had every intention of taking advantage to find out exactly what went on inside the walls of Castle Sin. Until she awoke the Beast inside the King of the Castle. “And it’s going to be such a pleasure to make you crawl and beg,” he promised in a deep growl. “As meek as a little kitten.” He was known as Stone Rothman in Hollywood … Stone Sinclair to his family … and Master Eagle to everyone else in Castle Sin A powerful Master, a compassionate man, and a hungry and demanding Beast created the enigma that was Stone Sinclair. Trust and honesty were paramount in every aspect of his life and he expected the same from those surrounding him. As the king of his castle, it took a lot to crack his armor … but this time she had peeved him off. She was one of the trainees who had applied to be a submissive at Castle Sin … and she was a fake. A liar and an impostor. Two traits this powerful Master had no patience for. The moment he laid eyes on the tall redhead, the Beast inside his soul began to stir. She was a deceiver, and he was going to enjoy transforming her into exactly what she’d applied for. A submissive … his submissive. Meanwhile, unbeknownst to both of them, a conspiracy threatened to yank their entire existence apart. It endangered not only their lives, but spelled disaster for the entire nation, and Peyton was forced into an impossible situation she had no way to get out of. With lies and lust and fear at war inside her, helpless to fight the domination of the Master and his Beast, she attempted to find a solution … but no matter what she did, there was only one way it all would end. With Stone Sinclair hating her. Editor’s Note: Stone will make you want to go out and apply to all the local BDSM clubs in the hopes of finding your very own Master Eagle. Sexy as hell, sweet like candy, with just a vein of mystery and danger that we have come to expect, Stone is woven in such a way that will have your head in the clouds, your blood pounding in all the right places, and your heart cracking as you wonder what you would do if you were in her place…

The finale in the Castle Sin saga! One Castle Seven Dungeons Seven Masters (Oops … now there are ten!) Seven Times the Kink A story that’ll make you laugh, curse, and cry... In trust, I becomes we—a fate sealed as one. This story is the culmination of a journey of two people whose trust had been tested … and failed. “You make it so easy for me to hate you.” Peyton’s heart soared the day Stone came to save her. It didn’t last. He made it clear from the start that he didn’t want her at Castle Sin. He wanted her gone as soon as she recovered. But she wasn’t the kind of woman who took kindly to being told what to do. Besides, she had something to fight for … and as long as there was a spark of heat in his eyes when he looked at her, she wasn’t giving up. She loved him and come hell or high water, she would make him love her again. “Believe me, hating me is the only way you’ll survive … if you insist on staying.” Stone Sinclair was a tangled web of contradictions. Having his love and trust thrust back in his face had snapped the tenuous thread that allowed another into his heart—one he had worked so hard to spin since he’d fallen in love with Peyton. Forgiveness wasn’t an option; not since the dark demon had once again taken residence inside his soul. But how did the Dom in him ignore the submissive who challenged him at every opportunity? How did he separate the driving need to be the only one to dominate her from his inability to fully trust her again? They said the home is where the heart is, but in the case of Stone and Peyton … it was no more than an elusive dream. Would they ever find their way back to each other or would they forever suffer the lonely consequences of pride and duplicity? Only time would tell. Editor’s Note: In this final book of the Sinclair Doms and their subs, all loose strings are woven back together in an emotional, cathartic, titillating, and satisfying closing act. Couldn’t have asked for anything more! Brava!! AUTHOR'S NOTE: This series should be read in order.
