5 Books. No Cliffhangers. Enjoy! Not your average knight in shining armor. The muscled, rugged, rule-breaking Shifters of Anubis are secret for a reason... Book One No one would ever guess that Kai Weslark, a surfer boy living in paradise, could have a dark secret. Yet behind those crooked smiles, Kai has been trying to forget everything he left behind in California, especially his family and the Shifters of Anubis. Until he has no choice but to face it when a pretty brunette named Isla DeLuca needs his protection from the same organization that sent him into hiding. Isla awakes on a tropical island, baffled as to how she got there and even more baffled by her apparent kidnapper, who seems far too cavalier and full of jokes about it. And indifferent. Shouldn’t a kidnapper be a little more vested in the girl he brought across the ocean? But as Isla learns more about Kai and tries to find out what he’s keeping form her, she realizes she’s in danger from more than one quarter. And that there’s more to this surfer boy than meets the eye. Book Two Baltsaros Kazan was shipped away as a child from Greece to America.

Oh yeah, and pull double-duty as a bodyguard and fake boyfriend for KesariIyer. The pretty, bubbly Doctor who hates his guts. Roy has long resigned himself to keeping up the dual legacy of his rival families. Not doing or getting what he wants. Ever. But now he has to live with the pretty, bubble doctor who hates his guts? To work with her as co-lead? All while keeping up appearances under cover? Book Four Desmond Devoy can’t quite place his finger on why the co-ed with the long braids and sparkling gray eyes intrigues him. She’s beautiful, yes, but there’s more. Something is shattered and wanting underneath her poise. Something that beckons at him. Something he can never indulge in yet is starting to crave. But he has secrets of his own, dangerous ones he has to keep under lock and key. Something happened when he helped the Shifters of Anubis in the Sierra Mountains. And he’s come too far and sacrificed too much to stop now. Book Five She’s not supposed to be alive. Andrei Zima is a perfect soldier in the ranks of the Shifters of Anubis. Takes orders without question. Always gets the job done. And he’s supposed to kill Faye Knight. He didn’t question it. Didn’t hesitate. Not until he laid eyes on her. Not until his gut told him she was innocent. She was the woman he’d once tried to save and believed until now that he’d failed her.

    But that’s before she sees the perfect child. There he sits in his stroller, angelic and beautiful, magnetic and serene– and he makes Jane question everything she has and everything she thought she wanted. Suddenly all she can see are babies and pregnant woman everywhere. Were there always so many of them? And while there was once a man in her life–her one true love, Sam, gone from this world too soon–there is no man now. Jane must make a choice: possibly become a bitter and childless old lady, letting her biological clock tick on ’till menopause, or tend the ache in her heart now, by becoming a single mother. As Jane struggles to make the most important decision of her life, friends and family offer no shortage of opinions. There’s Ray, her “hubstitute” and gay best friend who would be jealous of any kid who got Jane as a mom; Sheila, her sister, who went from zero to sixty when she eloped with Raoul–who had two young twin sons– and has mixed feelings about being a new mommy; her strict, Catholic father who can’ t imagine what level of hell Jane would banish herself to if she becomes a single mother; and the women of Families with Children from China who are preparing to adopt orphan daughters–without a man in sight. Just as she thinks she’s made up her mind, Jane discovers one small wrench in her plans: handsome, charming, funny Peter, who just happens to be (unhappily) married. . . .
