🔥Opposites Attract

🔥Protector Romance

🔥Close Proximity

🔥Primal Play Kink

🔥Good Girl/Bad Boy

🔥Exhibitionism/Voyeurism

🔥Dominant, Alpha Hero

He’s the man I can’t forget. I'm the client he can’t touch. But some rules are meant to be broken.

I’ve spent my whole life being a good girl, and where has it gotten me? Nowhere. So I do something reckless, just for me. I let my best friend drag me to The Players Club where I taste freedom for the first time…and a dark, intense stranger catches me watching what it looks like to truly surrender. With nothing but his voice and hands, he gives me the most explosive night of my life.

It was supposed to be one night of pleasure, until Tate Holland walks back into my life as my full-time bodyguard. Now, he’s professional. Controlled. Off-limits. But every look ignites me. Every command makes me ache. Every moment alone feels like one breath away from breaking every rule just to touch him again.

While keeping me safe, Tate sees the real me beneath the privilege. He challenges me. He believes in me even when my own family doesn’t. And I see the truth behind his walls, the darkness he’s too afraid to unleash, the guilt he carries. The man who thinks he’s too dangerous to love.

But I crave that primal side to him, and I want every piece he tries to hide.

When the danger escalates and betrayal strikes from someone close by, Tate becomes the one man I can trust with my life…and my heart. Now, all that’s left is for him to trust me with his.

Playing with Surrender delivers a spicy bodyguard romance with forbidden tension, a protective alpha hero, good-girl rebellion, forced proximity, and a love story where surrender isn’t weakness—it’s everything.

Gentry Parkhurst had been my everything—until I broke his heart.

I’d loved my brother’s best friend since the day he caught me barefoot in a field chasing butterflies and dreaming too big. He’d loved me with a devotion that felt unbreakable. I’d believed we were forever…until tragedy shattered our world. When everything fell apart, I didn’t run toward him.

I ran as far away as I could.

Four years had passed before I set foot back in the small town of Haven Valley, convinced I’d left my past—and Gentry—behind for good. Imagine my shock when he’d been the one waiting at the airport, demanding I get in his truck so he could take me home.

I’d expected hatred.

I’d braced for indifference.

I hadn’t expected to find Gentry living and working on my family’s ranch, sleeping in my sanctuary, occupying every space I’d tried to forget.

No matter how hard I’d tried to keep my distance, we were consistently thrown together. Old wounds reopened. Buried feelings refused to stay buried. With every stolen glance and lingering touch, the truth became impossible to ignore.

We’d never stopped loving each other.

But some heartbreak changes you forever

As a goblin prince living in the human court of Morvane, Luc is unerringly loyal to his best friend, Prince Ramon. While his feelings seem genuine, his loyalty is forced, magically-controlled by the false heart beating in his chest. The royal wizards have hidden his true heart out of reach, keeping Luc as a well-mannered captive in the Morvanish palace.

Will Fletcher is an irritable apprentice smith, more comfortable sneaking off to the goblin kingdom of the Brightwood than staying in his family home. When Luc stumbles into his life, Will learns that he and the goblin prince have more in common than he expects. In order to steal back Luc’s heart and free him from magical bondage, Will must confront the shadows hiding in his past and forge a new life.

EXCERPT:

“I never wanted to be a wizard,” Will said. The words burst out of him in a rush, harsh and rough-edged. “But if I am one, I want to use my magic to do something good. I want to be more than… than this.” He gestured to the study, the bed, the detritus that had once been the sphere. “I want to use magic the way they do in the Brightwood.”

Luc knelt on the floor in front of him. “How do you know what magic they use in the Brightwood?”

“I’ve been there.” Will tried to look away, afraid that Luc might resent him for it, but Luc held his face in a firm grip. “My magic helps me get through the thorns. There’s a smith there, Olven, he showed me some of the magic the goblins have done. It’s small, but it’s helpful. It doesn’t have to hurt people.”

“You can navigate the thorns,” Luc said. “You’ve been to the Brightwood.” He smiled, but it wasn’t the vacant, unsettling grin that came with his magicked heart. His eyes were shining, sharp teeth bared. “What a curious man you are, William Fletcher.”

Luc slid his fingers through Will’s hair, cupping the back of his head. The heat of him felt like magic, warm and full, a surge of dizzying elation rising through Will’s body. It filled him like steam, and he raised a hand to Luc’s thigh.

Will had some experience with men. Traveling farmhands passing through Westwood were more than willing to spend time with a young man who wouldn’t spread tales. They didn’t bother with gentle touches and sidelong glances. There wasn’t enough time for that. Will was used to fellows making their intentions known, not having to guess what they meant when they stroked his hair and called him curious.

A voice rose from the other side of the house, and Luc pulled away, leaving Will kneeling in the center of the study with shafts of light pooling over the floor.

“We should hurry,” Luc said. Will felt adrift, yearning for something he hadn’t known he could ask for. He swiped a hand over his mouth. The pressure lingered, the ghost of warm lips that hadn’t quite touched him. “We don’t have much time before they return.”
