    It was the only real family I’ve ever known. Her asking me to leave was bullshit, but then disappearing without even saying goodbye was so much worse. I was done with Maggie then. I never wanted to see her face again. Five years. Five years of anger, pain and regret. Five years to move on and forget. And five seconds to get sucked back in. MAGGIE I have no right coming back here. No right asking for help. Not after the way I left everything - the way I left Jase. But what choice do I have? I’m dead if I don’t. I’ve made so many bad choices in my life. Caused so much pain. Maybe I deserve what’s coming to me. What right do I have putting Jase, my father, and the whole MC in danger just to help me? The MC is Jase’s sanctum, and I may not deserve it, but I’m praying that it can now become mine. Book 2: Retribution Will I was a different man two years ago. I was soft, too easy-going. Look where that got me. Death and destruction, and all of it my fault. I wasn’t going to let that happen again. Now all I wanted to do was fight, drink and fuck. I couldn’t imagine that anything short of retribution for the past could make me want to turn back into the man I was before. I certainly never imagined someone like Eva… Eva When my brother and I moved to this small little town to take over my Uncle’s bar, I thought that it was just going to be like a little mini vacation from our lives. What I didn’t expect was to be threatened almost as soon as we got there. And I certainly didn’t expect protection from that threat to come from a man like Will Bowers. Dark, violent and completely gorgeous. He’s the complete opposite of the type of guy I’m usually attracted to, but then again, I’ve never met a man like him before. My instinct tells me to stay far away, but at the same time, I can’t ignore the feeling that there is more to him than his rough exterior. I see something behind all of that pain in his eyes. Something that draws me forward. Besides, my friend Laura is always telling me that I spend too much time with my head buried in my books, and that I need to actually lift it up and live a little. Maybe she’s right, but I don’t think this is what she had in mind. Book 3: Vindication From what I can tell, Ghost is one of the most ruthless members of the Black Dogs MC. He seems to take a certain pleasure in violence and mayhem, and he has a wit that is just as sharp as any of the blades he carries. He’s also about as arrogant and infuriating as any man I’ve ever met, and has women fawning all over him wherever he goes. But for some reason, he seems to think that I’m his soulmate. He calls me his Valkyrie, and he shows up, unbidden, at the most inopportune times. Like when I’m trying to teach my class full of private school kids.

We are given a choice when we die to move on to the Source, stay on earth and slowly evolve into more of what we were (good people become angels and bad people become demons), or a chosen few can work to keep the Balance between them. The title character Raven is such a warrior who works to maintain that balance.Malign, the demon responsible for most of the world’s cataclysmic wars, has come to the United States with an army of vampires or, more specifically, demons she has convinced to act as those fabled creatures of the night to sow discord and social unrest. Raven and the other Balance soldiers must track Malign down and in their spare time try to convince the ancient angel Metatron that he is doing more harm than good with his participation in mortal affairs. Tagging along for the ride are a motorcycle gang of millionaire philanthropists, Raven’s fellow Balance warrior Zeus’ younger angelic brother, and the demon Lucifer with his babysitter Gabriel.The novel is written in two styles. Each chapter begins in a soliloquy from the title character Raven, where she tells pieces of her back-story intertwined with philosophical musings on her family life and dealing with loss, with the following bulk of the chapter told in a third person narrative.

    She owned and operated a construction company in the Deep South, lived her life on her own terms and never backed down from a challenge. At least, not until Leland threw out a challenge she dared not take. Leland had never wanted for anything a day in his life. He was wealthy, handsome, of Southern aristocratic background. He had it all. Except for the one thing he wanted most-Toni. Cashmere Sky by RaeLynn BlueSky had been badly burned by a disastrous marriage. Her ex-husband's brutal words left her battered and broken in places the scars didn't show. The last thing in world she had time for was some young boy toy, whispering sweet nothings in her ear.

Sometimes its Something Deeper.

     It was wrong. I knew it. She knew it. But that didn’t mean a goddamn thing. Jessica was my forbidden apple. And I wouldn’t have just one bite. Call me bad. Dirty. Depraved. For f@#king a girl half my age. So innocent. So pure. So… deliciously mine. It’d been years since I’d felt this alive. Years since I’d dared to imagine loving another woman. My wife died, but I didn’t. She would’ve wanted me to move on. Be happy. Find another mother-figure for our daughter, Cara. So maybe this was it. Maybe this was my second chance. A warped fairy tale. It was time to throw all caution, the rulebook, to the f@#king wind. Tell all our adversaries to go screw themselves. I was a grown man. She was a grown woman. Our choices were ours to make. That is until I found out my love was keeping a hell of a secret… Note: Accidental Baby for the Billionaire is 60k of steamy romance between a sexy billionaire and a hot, young nanny.

    You will need a few things; clean panties, a hot man/vibrator, and blocks of uninterrupted time. The only thing I can think of that's better than curling up with one of Gabi's books is curling up with a bundle of them. There's not a single book in this set that I wouldn't recommend. They're all deliciously dark, steamy, and absolutely riveting." Included in this set: NEVER LOOK BACK When they kidnapped her, something dark inside me came bubbling to the surface. I knew I wasn’t afraid anymore. I wasn’t going to ignore my past any longer. This time, I would fight... WRECKED & YOURS When the ship went under, I acted fast, and I did what I had to. And now we were stuck in the middle of nowhere, and the worst was yet to come. Looking back, I guess I always had a suspicion that there was something fated about those three strange days we spent together, and about the chain reaction afterwards that brought us both square into one another’s lives. COME UNDONE I can spot women like her a mile away. Uptight, fearful, holding onto their perfect lives by a thread. The moment I saw her, I wanted to break that thread. I want to possess her. Strip her down. Unravel her little world, and get at her hidden inner core that I’ve only had glimpses of so far. ONE LAST BREATH Aden - ex military and professional killer - has had it with the big city. Out in the snowy forests of Maine, he doesn't have to deal with any of that. It was perfect. Until she showed up. Broken, forgotten, and left for dead. It's time for Aden to discover just how much passion still exists in his calloused heart. AGAINST ALL ODDS She wasn’t my type. Not even close. So how did I end up here, in a steel container in a warehouse, feeling things I’d never felt for anyone before? I didn't know why, but I just knew that after that night we spent together, our lives would change forever. WHATEVER IT TAKES She’s still as beautiful as I remember, but she hates my guts, And I don’t blame her. But now I have a chance to do what’s right. And I will. Whatever it takes... DARK DESIRES I can see right through her good girl charade. I’m an actor, after all. I do what I want, and I don’t do anything unless it excites me. And she excites me. There’s something dark about her. Something magical, chaotic and beautiful. I could stay away. I should stay away. But I won’t...
