Glimmers of Me

Dreams of You

Echoes of Us

The Bastards live in a world that most don't understand. We follow our own rules, only accountable to each other, the innocents we protect, and the people we couldn't save. Each of us wears a mask, hiding behind a polite smile and a respectable job, covering the monsters inside. I made peace with who I was a long time ago. I have no regrets.Except one. I've been in love with Jo Walker for years, always standing on the sideline, playing the only position I could. When she looks at me, she sees her best friend; he's the man I want to be. I blew it once; I walked away, leaving her with more questions than answers, knowing it was best for both of us. A few months without her made me realize that nothing mattered if I couldn't have her. I need to get her back, and I'll do anything she asks, including telling her my darkest truths.I expect her to run away and never look back. That's the smart thing to do, the safe thing to do. I'm no good for someone like her. This life will only syphon all the goodness away, leaving her bitter and cold. It seems like my choice should be easy. But, I'm not letting her go without a fight.

A Secret Affair

Callaghan. A name synonymous with power and fear. A family of untouchable criminals. As a teenager, Gabriella Forte had no intention of getting to know the town's most dangerous brothers. Once Dustin set his sights on her, she was trapped. There was only one way out of her personal hell. Declan was determined to break away from his family's shadow. Until he fell in love with the one woman he couldn't have. She changed everything. Life isn't always kind. Love can hurt. Sometimes you need to sacrifice yourself to protect the people you care about. It's been twelve years since Declan did the unthinkable and went to prison. He promised to stay away from Gabby and his nephew. That's one vow he can't keep. Things aren't always what they seem. Facts are only as credible as the person stating them. The truth doesn't always set you free.

Almost Innocent

Not afraid to speak his mind or make a scene, Nathaniel Kelly has made a name for himself as country music's ultimate bad boy. Covered in tattoos, singing songs about drugs, drinking and heartache, Nate acts more like an out of control rock star than the grandson of one of the genres most influential and legendary stars. Every man wants to be him. Every woman wants just one night with the hard-rocking country rebel. Except me. I just want to know that the boy I used to love is happy and that I didn't break his heart in vain. That's why I buy every magazine that even mentions his name; at least, that's the story I tell myself. When my friends gave me a birthday present any fan would die for, I was suddenly face-to-face with the man I never thought I'd see again. My body wasn't supposed to react to him the way it did. And, Nate sure as hell wasn't supposed to look at me the way he used to. Can someone you loved as a teenager really have a hold on your heart twelve years later? Is it ever too late to say you're sorry and make up for past wrongs? I'm about to find out.

Forever Red

Josephine Walker doesn't do drama. All her life she has taken the safe route and done what was expected; she married her college sweetheart, found a great job, had two beautiful children and settled in to her little piece of perfection to live out her life. She was happy with the mundane. The only thing that seems out of place is her best friend Matt; he is as funny, crazy and impulsive as she is sarcastic, dependable and predictable. Matt's life is loud and full of chaos. Jo knows his past is as dark as his tattoos, that his secrets are buried for a reason, but all she can see is that he's always got her back. When her marriage falls apart, Matt swoops in to help Jo pick up the pieces. At least, that's what he planned to do. But, Jo has other plans. She's done playing it safe, done caring what other people think. She wants wild and crazy; and as much as she tries to ignore it, she wants Matt. Together they have to answer the ultimate question; can a man and a woman, who are as close as they are, ever truly be just friends? Jo adores Matt, she trusts him completely. But, will she risk everything, including their friendship, to take a chance on love with the bad boy that could destroy her heart?
