Penny Robertson just wanted to get through the events leading to her sister's wedding with as little drama as possible. Smile until it hurt, avoid questions about her lack of someone special, then put it all in the rearview.

She wasn't counting on traipsing to The Red Door Club--or meeting the drop-your-panties sexy businessman, Xander Wade. Xander has a proposition for her: if she agrees to pretend she's his girlfriend for a month, he'll go with her to the wedding...and pay her twenty thousand dollars.

It seems like easy money; a business arrangement that benefits them both, but she wasn't counting on falling for him.

Xander Wade works hard and plays even harder. CEO of a cutthroat investment firm, his philosophy on romance is no strings attached.

When his ailing father threatens to boot him from the company if he doesn't settle down, Xander makes a choice to play the game. He'll pretend he's the marrying type for a month, then go back to the jet set life. No complications. No love.

He wasn't betting on Penny. A month seemed like a breeze before her. Now, a month isn't long enough...

Spoiler Alert: To Trust A Billionaire Sneak Peek!

My apologies again for the delays with the final two installments of The Billionaire's Baby Series. In yay-worthy news: To Trust A Billionaire (The Billionaire's Baby Series, #4) will be released on November 15! I know some of my readers prefer to wait until the entire series is out before they read, so I decided in the interest of not spoiling the story, I'd put the sneak peek on my blog. ;)

Spoilers ahead, loves!

Excerpt from To Trust A Billionaire (The Billionaire's Baby Series, #4)

My throat closed, panic wrapping around my vocal chords and squeezing until tears sprang to my eyes. I faced Alicia, blinking rapidly because I’d almost forgotten about her altogether. From the way her lips were moving, the volume lost somewhere in my breakdown, she hadn’t forgotten about me.
My nostrils flared as I gave my head a shake, trying to dislodge the images that cut through my mind.
Jacob, staring deeply into me, eyes flickering with lust as his lips curled into a smirk—a smirk that was ripped from his face as some unknown fist sailed towards his jaw.
“Leila, who was that?” Alicia leaned in, her stormy eyes narrowing with thinly veiled suspicion and indignation that I’d be so rude as to answer the phone during our impromptu lunch date.
I didn’t answer her. I couldn’t tear myself away from the horrific images that were now seared onto my brain. My heart dropped as I imagined his blue eyes swollen shut. Watched the blossoming of red as blood vessels exploded from the  onslaught of the blows.
“Jacob…” I croaked, a sob clawing its way through the zen music that taunted me, like Angelique Entoine hadn’t just dropped a nuke that obliterated everything. Wooden flutes and the dribble of water across smooth rocks didn’t belong in this nightmare.
“Jacob?” Alicia parroted back, picking up her mug.
I frowned, watching her move in slow motion. When had the waitress brought over drinks?
How was the world still turning while my husband was…
Was…
Alicia pursed her lips and took a sip that made me want to slap the mug right out of her hands. “I’m sure he’s annoyed that I’m in his general vicinity. Please inform my son that I will get his wife and child back to him-”
“Jacob was taken, Alicia!” I shrieked. I almost yanked my hands to my ears because I heard my shrill voice echoing over and over again. It was a brutal crescendo that everyone in the building heard from the way everything around us fell silent. “One of my clients…” I couldn’t even say Angelique’s name without gagging, so I just skipped to the point. “They’re holding him at your house!” The name that I’d been trying desperately to ignore, the person that I refused to keep me shackled in fear, did just that. My next sentence came out in tortured bits and pieces. “Eichmann…has…Jacob.”
I expected Alicia to leap from her chair, her usual composed exterior splintering into a million pieces. I expected questions, sputtering from her lips like the broken teeth Jacob was probably losing as we sat here in this stupid cafe.
I got nothing.
No blinking.
No heat rushing to her cheeks.
No toppling of furniture or ruining of her perfectly assembled outfit.
No questions.
Nothing.

Irreplaceable (Underneath it All: Book Three) is Now Available!

Irreplaceable (Underneath it All: Book Two) is Now Available!


It's official: billionaire Jackson Colt has fallen in love. After spending his life avoiding that four letter word, pretending he didn't want to be seen, he realizes that love is worth the risk. But does Sadie feel the same?

In her darkest hour, face to face with her demons, Sadie McLeod should be doing the thing she does best--pushing away everyone.

Her heart is on the line. Will she lose everything if she lets herself fall, or will Jackson catch her?

Irreplaceable is the final installment in the Underneath It All series.

Irrational (Underneath it All: Book Two) is Now Available!

Irrational (Underneath it All: Book Two) is Now Available!


There's a reason billionaire Jackson Colt doesn't do love: Sadie McLeod. Now that she's shut him out completely, he can't fathom a life that doesn't have Sadie in it. She makes him weak. Vulnerable. For Jackson, that's unacceptable. But getting her out of his head? That's impossible.

Sadie McLeod should know better. Guys like Jackson don't live happily ever after with women like her. She didn't realize how badly she wanted happily ever after, how badly she wanted Jackson, until he was gone.

Can they take the leap into the unknown, into the terrifying and find the love they crave?

Irrational is the second installment in the Underneath it All series.

Irresistible (Underneath it All: Book One) is Now Available!

Irresistible (Underneath it All: Book One) is Now Available!


Billionaire Jackson Colt has success, wealth, power and a presence that makes his competitors tremble with fear. Beneath the armor is a man with a dark and painful past. A man with a heart that he guards by any means necessary.

As far as Sadie McLeod is concerned, 'escort' isn't a bad word. It's a job, one of two that she works to pay off a debt that is not her own. Tough as nails and far from a damsel in distress, love is a luxury she can't afford.

Can they put aside their dark pasts and find the love they both desperately want, underneath it all?

Irresistible is the first installment in the Underneath it All Series.
