Ad-exec Jordan Blake believed image was everything—until his parents were convicted of murder, the family company went bankrupt, and his excessive drinking and arrest fueled the tabloids. When lawyer David Barnes offers representation in exchange for assistance in reopening his Colorado mountain resort, Jordan has no choice. It’s help or jail. Hollywood wild child Lexie Sinclair disappeared by changing her name, joining the army, and marrying a soldier. Then her husband wrapped their car around a tree, killing himself, and leaving her permanently injured. For the past few years, she’s been content to live in peaceful obscurity as caretaker of David’s defunct resort. Jordan’s arrival exposes Lexie’s true identity and brings her dead husband’s ‘friends’ calling. Jordan offers to help, but the shadow of his drinking leaves Lexie reluctant to trust. Can they conquer their fears and find the courage to face the criminals—and the world—together? COLORADO TRUST SERIES Trust makes all the difference when love and danger collide.

Book Description
Nikki Rowen desires a family of her own—but first comes love, then comes marriage. She thought she had the former, until the moment she mentioned the latter and her boyfriend left her with nothing but a broken heart. Just as she’s beginning to doubt she’ll ever have a ‘til death do us part Happily Ever After, she meets her new neighbor in the most unexpected way. In Sam Mallin's experience, the word family is synonymous with abandonment; he’s more than content on his own. Yet, in less than a week, he finds himself caring for an infant dropped on his doorstep, and playing house with his beautiful next-door-neighbor. When his feelings for Nikki deepen, he fears he’s nothing more than the ready-made family she so desperately wishes for. How can a self-proclaimed loner hold onto the two females most important to him without history repeating itself in a world of heartbreak? EXCERPT: He’d just reached into the refrigerator for a beer when the doorbell chimed. The cheery summons grated across his nerves, making him cringe. Could he ignore this unwanted visitor who appeared to have practically been waiting in the bushes for him? A glance over his shoulder gave him the answer. Nope. His bare windows, glaring lights, and the volume of the TV made it impossible to pretend he wasn’t home. Curtains and blinds seemed a great investment right about now. Kicking the fridge shut, he twisted the cap from the bottle. The doorbell went off again, twice as long as before, as if the person on the other side held it down. Damn it. If this was another married woman bringing him pie, he was going to— Smile, and say, “Thank you.” That’s what neighbors did, right? He took a long, fortifying pull off his beer, then thumped it on the counter on his way to answer the door. Too bad his neighbor right next door hadn’t been one of those pie-wielding visitors. He’d have invited her inside. Then he got a glimpse through the window...of her standing on his front porch. “Well, whaddaya know,” he murmured with a sudden grin of anticipation. Maybe she’d come in and watch the game with him. Hell, he wouldn’t even care if she held a pie in her hands. He swung the door open and smiled his welcome at the pretty blond. His gaze dropped, then froze. Where he would’ve preferred a pie, she held a baby carrier—complete with baby. Damn, she had a kid. After what his mother put him and his sister through, he didn’t do women with kids. “Samuel Mallin?” He lifted his gaze up from all that pink to a pair of guarded blue eyes. Forcing his lips to maintain their upward curve, he answered, “I prefer Sam. And you’re Nicole, right?” “Nikki.” She frowned. “How’d you—” “I had some of your mail in my box yesterday,” he admitted. “Ah.” Her wry smile was appealing enough to make him forget about the baby. But it faded fast as she took a breath, shifted her stance, then extended her arms, carrier and all. “Sam, this is yours.” There was a crumpled envelope clutched between the fingers of her right hand. Tilting his head, he read his name in the crinkled address field and removed it from her grasp with a laugh. He liked that she’d chosen to bring his mail over personally. If he’d been thinking, he’d have done it first—and found out about the kid. “Thanks,” he said as her baby began to fuss. “I just put your stuff in your mailbox.” Nikki lifted the carrier higher with an exasperated huff. “You don’t understand. She is yours.” ~~~ To everything there is a season... Love finds a way during the four seasons in the Romancing Wisconsin Series.

Book Description

But California isn’t all sun and fun, and paying the rent while trying to prove herself is harder than she ever imagined. ...is more than a kiss... Something about Sadie drew self-made millionaire Zach Robinson—and it wasn’t just the amazing kiss they shared as impromptu actors in his company's commercial.

He’s falling fast—until his brother suggests acting runs in her family and Sadie might not be exactly what she seems... “Stacey Joy Netzel has a gift for writing and creating characters with amazing chemistry.

Book Description
She loved him and left him, but fate had other plans... Nine months ago, undercover detective, Ispettore Evalina Gallo, protected her heart the only way she knew how, never expecting to see her savior-turned-one-night-stand again. When he returns to Italia—now a person of interest in an investigation of a local organized crime family—her personal connection to the rugged American gets her assigned to the case. With his mother’s pleas ringing in his ears, Ben Sanders plans to retrieve a stolen bible his father shipped to Italy thirteen years ago, and then get out as fast as he can. But with the sudden arrival of the beautiful detective, he suspects his mother’s desire to right past wrongs might not be the whole truth. Now, less than twenty-four hours after entering the country, he’s getting shot at—again. In a race from Milan to Rome to find the precious book before anyone else, time is ticking for the one-time lovers. Attraction burns hotter than molten lava, but amid secrets and half-truths, they must move beyond past betrayals and trust each other if they have any hope of a future together. Don’t miss the wild ride of adventure from Milan to Rome. Get your copy of BETRAYED today! “...a thrill ride of an adventure and suspense, topped off with sizzling chemistry between the leads.” ~ Helen, Amazon reviewer EXCERPT: “You said you don’t look back.” “I don’t,” he lied. Because clearly, he hadn’t been able to forget about her. “Is that a lesson learned from your parents when they stole from other people? Is that how they taught you to deal with your conscience?” Her accent had gotten much thicker, and while he recognized she was purposely goading him, he still stiffened at her words. The realization that they were the truth sucked the air from his lungs, and he pushed away from the wall. “How’d my parents get dragged into this?” “You wanted to talk about family. Let us talk.” “No. I don’t know what your problem is, but my conscience isn’t the one that seems to be having a problem right now.” When he moved to brush past her, she grabbed his arm, her fingers gripping his bicep like a vice. The restraint snapped his tenuous control and he rounded on her. Grasping her shoulders, he backed her against the wall. Confusion surfaced when she offered no resistance. He knew from experience she could lay him out flat in one move if she wanted. So what was her game? Hands flattened against his chest, she lifted her face to his. He swallowed hard at what he saw. Earlier she’d turned away from him. Now the heat in her gaze was pure invitation. Closing his eyes against the temptation did nothing to stop latent desire from rising up to engulf him. Things had been explosive between them in the past. He discovered nothing had changed when his body hardened in response. Desperation tightened his grasp. “What do you want from me?” Her fingers curled into his shirt, nails scraping his chest through the silk material. “I don’t know,” she whispered. Opening his eyes, he locked his gaze with hers and was surprised to see there was some truth to her words. Uncertainty was mixed with an intense hunger that matched his. Shallow breaths feathered his chin, raising his response level past rational thought. He slid his hands up to frame her face and lowered his head. “Is it this?” Giving her no chance to answer, he covered her mouth with his. He swept his tongue inside and there was nothing tentative about his possession or her response. She tasted better than he remembered; a unique blend of sweet and spice that could never be replicated. Breaking the kiss, he rasped, “Tell me, Eva. Is that what you want?” “Yes,” she breathed. ~~~ ITALY INTRIGUE SERIES Kidnapped, book 1 *Winner* 2012 Write Touch Readers' Award, romantic suspense as Lost in Italy Betrayed, book 2 Conned, book 3 Romantic suspense, sexy alpha male hero, betrayal, international romance series, Italian vacation romance, sexy cop heroine, beach reads, treasure hunt, one night stand romance, second chance romance, family betrayal, Milan Italy, Tuscany, Rome, on the run romance, redemption romance, bad boy romance, Stacey Joy Netzel, romance series, action adventure romance, action, adventure

The effects of the wine were suspect as she took a balancing step to the side. The restaurant’s entrance light lit her up as she swayed her hips side to side, drawing his gaze down to where the hem of the dress skimmed against her bare thighs. His groin tightened at the sight of her creamy skin, and he quickly lifted his attention back up—only to be faced with her twirling the yellow rose petals against her tempting lips as she playfully batted her eyelashes again. “You like my new dress?” “Love it. You are smokin’ hot.” It was supposed to be a tease, but when her gaze met his, his pulse skipped with the realization he meant it in a way he’d never meant before. “Why, thank you, Net.” Even as he returned her smile, he wondered what the hell was happening to him tonight? It was like something had sparked when she’d asked if he was going kiss her goodnight, and everything she did since then fanned that spark into a full-on flame of desire. Was it a full moon that had him thinking he’d like nothing better than to kiss his best friend…and more?
