    Now he wants me back? Ten years ago, I had the perfect life. A happy family, a loving boyfriend, a bright future. Then the accident took everything away. I woke up broken and scarred, my family destroyed. My boyfriend, Jack, gone. He vanished from my world and left me alone with just memories. Jack's tight body in my bed, on the kitchen floor, in the park...his hands on my skin, the fire in his eyes as he made me his. Now he's back and he wants me to run away with him. I want him so bad I can taste it. I want his kisses to burn my throat. I want a family with Jack and a child of my own. I want to be whole again. My heart says yes, but my head wants to know why the world's most eligible bachelor would want the scarred broken girl when he can have anybody he wants. How can I trust the man who disappeared when I needed him most? --- I'm taking her back. Perfect girl, perfect future. Once, I had everything. Ellie, my passion. I remember her skin under my hands, her lips pressed against mine, the scent of her hair and the feel of her writhing body. Looks like an angel, but a demon in bed. Then one cruel night stole it all away. They took me, shipped me overseas. Somebody already planned my perfect life, and my scarred girlfriend wasn't part of it. I know the truth: The accident was no accident. Someone tried to kill her. To hell with their plans. I'll make her mine again, and nothing's stopping me. I'll remind her how beautiful she is and we'll be the family we were meant to be. They tried to kill me to keep her from me once. I'd rather die than lose her a second time... **Author's Note: This limited edition of Broken Wings contains three full length, standalone bonus novels with HEAs: Blackbird, Mockingbird, and Hawk**

Go Deep


Bella Love-Wins - 2016
     I'm not riding a wave to the NFL. I am the wave, and everyone knows it, including my fans, opponents, coaches, every NFL agent who matters, and the hot little chicks who follow me around. I'm the whole package...with a package that leaves chicks wanting more. There's just one exception. Cassidy Greyson. She is the uptight cheerleader, my brother's best friend, and a fellow student in a few of my courses. Getting a piece of her is now my informal senior year 'pet' project. Little does she know she's about to be owned. Cassidy Greyson 
I worked my butt off for three school years and two long summers so I could graduate early and get the hell out of my backwater life in Louisiana. Sure, I stuck to the cheerleading, but only because it was a family tradition that my mother insisted I keep up. Just because my older sister, Caroline, fell for the 'be-a-cheerleader-to-marry-an-NFL-star' trap, doesn't mean I want to follow in their footsteps. This is why Slade 'Slaughter' Clark doesn't have a chance in hell. I've avoided falling for the arrogant jock up until now, and there's no way I'll let him in. My business professor may have thought he was doing us both a favor when he forced Slade and me to partner up for a major project. I just wish I didn't have to stare into his sexy hazel eyes or watch him flex his tight, bulky muscles while we work together. *Author's note. Go Deep is a full length, standalone story with a HEA ending and no cliffhanger. This story is light on football and heavy on steamy romance.
