A ruthless king drug dealer, Jude ‘The Judge’ Cooper is in a league of his own. Armed with a killer smile, wicked slickness, commendable acumen, and Southern charm, he manages to mix and mingle with the best of them. A veritable heartthrob, he also manages to elude the wide arm of law enforcement time and again. Jude’s mission is simple: Be smarter than the rest. Faster than the best. Know the enemy. Accumulate wealth. Take out anyone in the way without hesitation. This motto has served him well.

But there’s one problem…

A change is going to come… The Judge is ready for a revolution, but with all changes, comes risk.

The wrong move could bring dire consequences.

Iris Ashford is a divorced cashier at a twenty-four-hour grocery store, raising her niece and trying to make ends meet. Every night, a tall, handsome man comes into the store and buys some of the most unusual items. Boy, does he have the most beautiful eyes she’s ever seen. It doesn’t take long for her to find out that her little friendly crush is the infamous Jude Cooper, AKA, J.J.E.— ‘The Judge, Jury, and Executioner.’

One fateful night, a simple conversation turns into a tempting business proposition and Iris unwittingly signs up for more than she bargained for. She has stumbled into a dark, seedy underworld, and is now bonded to the Judge.
Marked for life to a man who doesn’t believe in falling in love. Until he met her…

Here is a tale of truth or dare, love or hate, and survival of the fittest. What is a man to do when the stakes are higher than his clientele?

This book contains adult content. Readers be advised.

Blurb: Aries ‘Flame’ Creed is not the kind of man you want to cross. He’s rough around the edges, revenge-seeking, shrewd and nobody’s pushover. After living through a checkered past and a nasty divorce, single fatherhood and a successful motorcycle sales and repair shop in Atlanta, GA keep him on his toes. Things are finally looking up until, one day, he learns his wealthy, estranged father has passed away and left him his entire estate.

One such asset is a historic building in a prime part of town. Lauren McKinley loves vintage cars, healing crystals, strong coffee, and dirty books. She owns the ‘Kindred Spirits,’ bookstore in Atlanta, her pride and joy for years. Widowed and definitely not looking, she’s convinced herself that she’s content, and doing her best to look on the bright side of life. That is, until her business is jeopardized by a devil with haunting amber eyes, more ink on his body than on a world map, and a seasoned professional in the art of intimidation.

All hell breaks loose, perhaps for reasons that neither fully acknowledge until their backs are up against the bookshelf walls. Chemistry ignites, and Aries and Lauren turn from enemies to friends, and then lovers… This is a tale of broken hearts, awakenings, and two searing souls coming together and healing as one. Can Aries sort through his pain and anger at the world to give love another try? Can Lauren admit some harsh truths and trust her own heart this second time around?

After moving into her new home, she comes face to face with King Viper. Repulsion and fear surface, yet sparks fly between them. Fangs out, he threatens to sink them deep into Majesty but perhaps, for her only, his bark is louder than his bite.

Immense obstacles, shocking secrets from the past, and devastating blows lay at the feet of the couple, demanding their attention, and testing their resolve.

Majesty is tough, but Dominic melts the ice around her heart. Can she trust a man who has spent his days mostly doing the Devil’s work? Will he behave like his namesake, the snake that would strangle their love by winding his sins around it, thus snuffing it out, once and for all?

Blurb:

Kane Westbrook has fallen from grace... Born from a wealthy, Christian family and living his life in Texas, the handsome, 6’5” former college football star and accomplished automotive engineer endured an unthinkable catastrophe, one that changed his life forever. He now isolates himself from the outside world, creating a cocoon of a false sense of comfort.

Jessica Franco is as level headed and calm as they come. She’s worked for years at the United States Postal Service, owns her own home and shares her space with a dear friend who can’t seem to get her own life together. Despite having a rather difficult childhood and being viewed as the ‘not so pretty one’ of her family and friends, she has not only survived, but thrived. Able to often see the silver lining in other’s misfortunes, she covertly rarely can see them for herself. Everyone loves Jessica, and though she appears well adjusted and centered, there are secrets and abundant pain she possesses deep inside, the kind of emotions that tear her apart in more ways than one. Suffering from always being the bride’s maid and never the bride, Jessica’s life begs the question, “Is beauty really only skin deep?”

Kane and Jessica meet in the most simplest of ways but their complicated lives intertwine. A bond of understanding and intrigue is formed that neither expected, yet, it’s too amazing to release. Fate came knocking, and they answered. The unexpected package of love was Signed. Sealed and Delivered.

Will Kane be able to escape the prison of his own mind and follow his heart to make a life with Jessica? Will Jessica be able to open herself up like the flower she is, be vulnerable enough to accept Kane’s love and most of all, believe that she is deserving to receive it?
