About this series

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

A shadow of a man. A whole heart. Another failed chance. And a love so unexpected and strong. But will it be enough, and will it be in time to save someone from the noose....

Sure, I ain’t no saint. Never said I was. Tell me you’ve never made a mistake, and I’ll call you a liar. But I’m about to make another one. At least that’s what going after Nash Paxton is, according to everyone else. Admittedly, I’m not the best listener, either. Until I take that ride into the bushes, seeking him out. Then I listen. I listen real good, too. Of course, one would listen up if it means saving someone’s life. Turns out that everyone was right this one damn time. But now it’s too late…and I know too much.

***

It wasn’t meant for anyone to see. Especially Braylynn. But I only told her what I had to. Least of all the reason I was doing what I was doing. The rest will go with me to the grave if I have my way about it. She turns out to be way more than I thought or could ever want. And she didn’t have to do any of it, either, but she did it all the same. And when it comes time to pay the piper, knowing what she did to me not twenty-four hours ago, my heart and my brain have trouble deciding. And then I run out of time…. just as her clock runs out...

    1

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A black sheep. A runaway. The American dream. And an old friend that reappears from thin air...bringing Billy’s past with him...setting his future with Piper to a grinding halt. The stain on my secondhand blouse taunts me as I drive to Billy Barnes’s ranch. He hasn’t called me for an interview, despite my numerous messages. I’ve been away at school long enough that I’ve been removed from this small town. Word is that Billy Barnes went away, too, to the military. Came back a different man, not fit for a woman. Doesn’t matter, since my only interest is work. He’s put off by me, but I don’t give up. Next thing I know, he’s following me like some lunatic, until he learns my secret, and then we’re both in a heap of trouble. He’s not the only one with nightmares. He’s not the only one living a nightmare, either. But then he looks at me with something in his eyes that I’ve never seen before. When I learn that it’s love it’s too late. *** My brother Cassidy points out Piper Charlton’s resume from a stack on my table. But I grumble, as he shares points about her, and the fact that she’s the last thing I need. When she shows up unannounced, I’m not impressed. The second trip is plain ballsy, but I’m too exhausted to fight, and I end up doing two things I’ll later regret. Her brains, her drive, and her heart are what open my eyes to things I would have never cared about before in a million years. She’s more intuitive than what’s good for her, and she finds out a certain something about me that I’ve never told a soul. I never meant for Piper to be a victim. And I’ll be damned if she ends up that way. That’s why I have to stop it before it starts. I just hope that I don’t break her heart in the process...or my own heart, for that matter.

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. Three lies. An introduction gone wrong. An impossible decision. And four words chosen that could make or break a perfect romance. Ever since Piper’s birthday party, we’ve been giving the town something to talk about. But now that Blair has boldly offered me something that I can’t refuse, I have to figure out what to do. And that what to do is staring me in the face. Beautiful eyes, a perfect body, but a silver tongue to boot. Sparks fly when I stupidly accept. It’s the biggest mistake of my life. But when my world falls apart, and the lies all come out, will Blair be there to help me pick up the pieces? And will I let him... *** Why I get involved makes my head spin. I know I’ll live to regret it. And I do. But, man, is regret fun with her. She brings out the worst and the best in me, in ways I never thought possible. Jade is perfect except for one thing and that one thing I can’t change, nor would I want to. Now that we’ve made the mistakes, when the lessons come, I’m not sure where either of us are headed. Until we witness the flatline. That’s when the truth about us all comes crashing down. It’s a stupid, crazy mess, but as the tears flow down her beautiful face, I’m not sure how long I can stay to catch them...and then it happens...and it makes my stay with her...more permanent. But can we both handle it?

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. A double life. A broken heart. A few bad actors. And a lesson learned that spells out four letters...but are they love...or dead... Cassidy’s only hurting because of his past life. And it ain’t my fault that we’ve got something in common that doesn’t rub him right. But nothing spells trouble like what’s going on at his brother’s ranch. Except when Cassidy’s past catches up to me and he’s got a problem with me for it. The nerve. I soon learn though, that he’s got his reasons, and they’re good ones, too. It takes a tragedy for me to learn the difference. Luckily, he’s right there with me to see me through. Until his brother’s past catches up with him, too. And that’s when we’re all in trouble...and at the worst time, because it’s right when my sister Jade and her love Blair say their vows. Karma is a real problem. *** Karma’s got nothing to do with it. It’s all about sense. And Crystal didn’t have much of it in the beginning. Mixing with this and that, but all this time, I didn’t know why she was avoiding what was right in front of her. It takes time for it to sink in, but when it does, it also takes guts for her to confront her demons and be honest for the first dang time in her life. Fear is a powerful thing. And when you’ve been driven by it your whole life, hiding from it, too, it’s something to figure that all out. Especially when it comes clear after tragedy. It’s the look in her eyes that draws me in, see. That look that I hadn’t ever seen before. I just hope that I get to see that look for a long time, but I’m not sure after what happens at Blair’s wedding. ...maybe that look will haunt me for the rest of my life...or maybe it’ll be my dearest blessing. ​

  • Don't Play the Cowboy

    4

    This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. She’s never been kissed. He’s a cocky cowboy with notches in his bedpost. When a wedge is driven between them, she tries to walk away, but will he let her? Then he finds out something about her that makes her worth fighting for. Life became more complicated, and I didn’t even notice. Not until two decades pass and it seems like everyone has moved on except me. Nobody told me that this part isn’t normal. And nobody ever tried to make me feel like it wasn’t, until I wanted something I couldn’t have. I wanted it so badly I made up lies to get me there. Wyatt is the only one that sees through it all. He’s the only one that can see the truth and it terrifies me. Until it doesn’t. Until the lies become the truth and there’s no turning back. And only Wyatt knows the difference. *** I’m not gonna lie. It’s completely messed up. Liz is off bounds as far as my brother Billy is concerned. Just because she works for him doesn’t mean that he calls all the shots. I’m just as much a part of this family as he is. And when he finds out what I already know, he’s got no leg to stand on, either. Nobody can give her what she needs until one person cuts her loose. And that will never happen, not as far as Liz can see. But when push comes to shove, and the accident happens, I’m in more than I ever thought I would be in, and I hold the spade, in more ways than one. Problem is, I’m not sure if Liz is ready to set it free, the spade, that is. And then we end up using a spade to dig...six feet under.

Some have said that if you see me on the street (usually with a book in hand or a laptop fired up), I appear a cold, hard-fisted person. However, once we've spoken for five minutes or less, you'll have laughed at least once. That is, provided you appreciate sarcastic, self-deprecating wit. My first short story was penned in middle school and I was hooked ever since. I graduated with honours from Humber College and began working as an Administrative Coordinator for a large, multinational corporation shortly afterward. Quickly learning that the corporate world, despite the love I had for my job, is a slow killer of creativity, I chose to quit during maternity leave in 2006. Difficulty thinking outside the box soon evaporated when I received something that didn't come in one: my first child. While at home with the baby my imaginative energy got the better of me and my first memoir was written. It had been a dream of mine to write about my late father, who passed away from alcoholism in 1992, and it took me two years to compose a fifty-page manuscript, but I did it. After my second daughter was born in 2008 I had more fuel to write, and felt it necessary to voice the challenges and inherent gifts I acquired during my struggles with Scoliosis. Hence, my second memoir was born. The words flowed out of me with such ease I shocked myself. My love for words grew with each book I read and every word I wrote. I soon realized I had no more material to write non-fiction, which led me to take a stab at fiction. The next two books were such a revelation: it became more and more clear what my true calling was. The rest, as they say, is history!
