TRUE COLORS
At Dreamspinner Press                              
From the very first, Zeke Roswell and Miles Winter are like oil and water. After a tragic fire claimed his brother's life, Zeke's personal and professional life spiraled out of control, and now he has no choice but to sell his gallery to cover his debts. Enter successful entrepreneur Miles, who buys it and plans to make a commercial success out of Zeke's failure.
Their initial hostility stands no chance against the strong passion that ambushes them. Zeke's talent and lust for life intoxicate Miles, and Zeke finds Miles's self-assurance and determination equally fascinating. But it's not until an unsolved mystery of violence and stolen sketches threatens to sabotage any chance at happiness that Miles and Zeke realize they have a chance at all.

  

FREEMAN
At MLR Press                                              
Freeman's return to the city is quiet, without fuss -- the way he likes things. But, he's missed by more people than he thought: his ex-wife, his ex-lover, and his ex-business partner. One wants friendship, another one intimacy. The third just wants him the hell gone again.
Freeman -- private, controlled -- hasn't time or appetite for trouble. But, when he strikes up an unusual, ill-advised friendship with young, lively, amoral Kit, it seems trouble's come looking for both men, ready to expose secrets that can destroy the fragile trust they've built. Freeman's more ready for the challenge than anyone realizes when the choice comes down to peace or Kit's life.

SPARKS FLY
At Dreamspinner Press                               
Nic Gerrard is this year's brightest young entrepreneur, charming and charismatic, with time for everyone.  Aidan West is his cleverest programmer, fiercely committed to his work and with little time for friendship or socializing.  Together they created the successful dating agency, Sparks, with a new and refreshing approach to matching people. 
A year later, their lives are very different--Nic has all the trappings of success and as much company as he wants; Aidan is solitary and disapproving of such a lifestyle.  When Nic decides to update the agency's unique matching program, he and Aidan must work together again.  Getting along gets harder as they deal with a malicious hacker and face a crisis at the agency.  It will take both of them to make the agency work, and somehow they have to find a way to put their differences aside. Nic and Aiden have secrets to keep, and whether they'll admit it or not, they each need something--or someone--to help Sparks fly.

 

THE GOLD WARRIOR
At Dreamspinner Press                               
Maen is a Gold Warrior, a defender of Aza City, a world controlled by the Queen and her womankind where the best of men are maintained for the military and the women's  pleasure. A favorite of his imperious Mistress and a leader among his men, Maen is too cautious to seek casual sexual satisfaction and so stays alone, taking his comfort in ensuring a stable and controlled world. That world is thrown into disarray by Dax, a bold and challenging new Bronze soldier who excites Maen with his fierce hero worship and leads them to a forbidden affair. They find themselves thrown together in a dangerous and hostile environment without the support of the City and far away from their loyalties, and Maen finds himself risking everything for Dax – his position; his loyalties; and eventually, his life.

TWISTED BRAND

Sequel to 'The Gold Warrior'
At Dreamspinner Press                               
No longer a revered Gold Warrior, Maen is a disgraced soldier, held in suspicion despite his role in winning the Queenship of Aza City for his Mistress, Seleste.  Returned alive from his captivity by the rebel Exiles, his reward was to be cast out from his position, his brave loyalty dismissed.  He remains an unwilling thrall to the new Queen while his heart mourns the memory of Dax, the young Bronzeman he helped escape from a sentence of death. 
When Maen is put under the guard of the arrogant Gold Warrior Zander and given the thankless task of preparing a Royal History, they both join up with the lively scribe Kiel.  The youngster's bold curiosity initiates a chain of events that will change their world and that of the City forever.  Maen's own discoveries will cast a new and shocking light on the Royal history and stir revolution in both citizens and rebels. And he will finally return to the Exile camp to face the one thing that can make him choose desire over duty.
