THE VOW (Manhattan Nights #1)
Reads
ELSIE I thought a “vow” could keep us apart. I was wrong. It’s been seven years since I’ve seen my first love—my best friend’s hotter than Hell-in-July older brother, Brett. But when my first night in NYC ends in disaster, I find myself walking into his tattoo shop in need of help, the memory of our lost romance still singed on my skin. Problem is: Trouble seems inked into Brett’s. And when I’m near him, that’s exactly what I find myself in—Trouble. Because I follow rules. And he breaks them. He’s tough. Guarded. A mystery. All wrong for me. Staying away from him the first time was harder than everything I’ve ever done before. Trying it for a second? Might break me completely. AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is the newly REVISED + EXTENDED version of the full-length, stand alone, best friend's brother/second chance romance with humor, suspense and heat. Enjoy!

THE DEBT (Manhattan Nights #7)
Reads
My best friend’s sister is not the kind of loan I can pay back. LACHLAN Weddings are supposed to be fun—glamorous...aren't they? I'm not so sure anymore. Because the second my best friend Drew tapped me to Best Man at his own NYC nuptials, I realized that I was in for one hell of a ride. Especially when it becomes clear that his younger, can't-stay-out-of-trouble sister Sabrina will be the Maid of Honor and I will have to keep my usually-busy hands off of her. Mostly, because she's my best friend's little sister. But more because she deserves better than a guy like me—a family screw-up with more secrets than good intentions. I am sure of one thing, though: I owe Drew for saving me from a lifetime of mistakes. It just didn't occur to me that Drew might have his own mistakes, too. Dangerous ones that push me closer to that sharp-tongued Sabrina... And closer to a ticking time bomb I never saw coming.

Because when a new con falls into my lap, I need the sensual brunette’s help if I want a prayer of staying out of a federal jail cell. Technically speaking, I’d deserve it.
