💗TEASER TUESDAY💗
“Cٲ?�
Just ignore her.
I glanced back at her. “What?�
A frown marred her brow. “You do get health checks, right?�
Was she kidding with that sh!te? “Not that it’s any of your business, but we get health checks at the club constantly. Now, can I have your promise you will not befriend anyone I bring over? In fact, can I have your promise we will ignore each other from now on?�
Beth considered it. “Nope to the former, yes to the latter. I’m not going to ignore other people because they made the epically bad decision to either be your friend or sleep with you.�
“You’re a pain in my fvcking ar$e.�
At my biting tone, Beth narrowed her eyes. “I hope she”—she gestured to the gate my one-night stand disappeared out of—“gave you a venereal disease.�
“You are a venereal disease.�
To my shock, she beamed. “Hey!� She raised her arms in celebration. “You made a funny! Good for you.�
“I hate you.� I climbed into my Defender and ignored Beth’s little wave and s>xy smirk as I drove past her.

Lifting my shoulders in a lazy shrug, I replied, “They’re backups. In case of an emergency.�

He’s a disgraced actor. She’s the daughter of Hollywood royalty. Both are hiding in the Scottish Highlands, but despite their antagonistic attraction, they can’t seem to hide from each other�
North Hunter has worked hard to step out of the shadows of his orphaned upbringing into the limelight of Hollywood.

COVER REVEAL: Beyond the Thistles (The Highlands Trilogy #1)
It’s been a long time since Walker Ironside left behind Scotland and the memories that haunt him. Yet after years of traveling the world as a bodyguard, Walker misses his homeland enough to return. To a village in the Scottish Highlands that plays host to an exclusive members-only club, Ardnoch Estate. If not happy, Walker is content working with the elite security at the club and maintaining his bachelor lifestyle.
What he doesn’t need is distraction in the form of the enticing but too-young newcomer, single mother Sloane Harrow.
Sloane never imagined she’d get pregnant at sixteen. Or that a decade later she’d escape from California with her daughter, Callie, to start over in the Scottish Highlands. Hidden and safe from Callie’s dangerous father, Sloane is satisfied with their new lives. Her daughter is happy. Sloane has a stable job, a quaint cottage, a passion for baking that might just be turning into a business, and a huge crush on brooding security guard Walker Ironside. Unfortunately, the grumpy Scot seems immune to Sloane’s charm, but she can’t help but try to seduce him with cupcakes and baked treats whenever the opportunity arises.
However, when someone arrives in Ardnoch intent on destroying Sloane’s life, Walker is the first to step forward to protect her and Callie. Even if it means giving into temptation and awakening his own demons. Because in doing so, Walker faces failing not only to shield Sloane from her past, but to safeguard her against his own.

A Cosmic Kind of Love is OUT NOW!
My new sexy friends-to-lovers rom-com about an a NYC event planner and an astronaut who meet in a unique way ;) is finally here! I couldn't be more excited. Here's a little excerpt from the book:
My gaze drifted over the table, looking for a menu. Finding none, I searched the tables behind us only to freeze at the sight of pink hair and a familiar profile.
Hallie.
Sitting in the middle of the room at a small table, leaning toward a guy I was secure enough to admit was handsome and laughing flirtatiously, was Hallie.
My Hallie.
On a date.
Suddenly my chest tightened with something like panic.
“I think that’s Hallie Goodman,� Darcy said beside me. “You remember her from my engagement party? She’s planning my wedding� Chris?�
I was already out of my seat, moving around the tables, my feet taking me to her with a mind of their own. The pulse in my neck throbbed, and the heat that flushed through me shocked me. The heat that told me I was angry.
Listening to the voice in the back of my head that reminded me I had no right to be indignant because Hallie and I were just friends, I reined in the emotion and shoved it back down just in time.
Hallie and her date looked up as I stopped at their table.
My gaze locked on the face that had grown more familiar to me than any other. Her eyes rounded with surprise. “Chris.�
Just like that, my irrational anger completely deflated.
My panic did not.
This woman was made for me.
I knew that deep in my bones.
And I’d been so wrapped up in my own problems, I’d taken too long to express that to her.
