The worst secrets are the ones you can never tell.

I've become an expert at hiding bruises.

No one knows about the scars I hide under my clothes ... except for my best friend, Embry.

One horrible night, things go too far, and Embry insists on sending her cousin to help.

A wild, inked, bad boy and member of a notorious biker club.

I didn't count on him riding to my house with two of his MC brothers.

The three overbearing, possessive outlaws won't take no for an answer when I refuse.

Slash, Embry's cousin and my secret crush. I never told him how I felt. He's a reckless, dangerous, brooding giant who growls every word. He's rumored to have earned his road name through his ruthless skill with a blade.

Gunner, the trio's older, more experienced alpha, insists on keeping his distance and barking orders. But the look in those stormy gray eyes betrays his struggle, especially when they flash with heat and raze my body with their smolder.

And then there's Havoc, a pierced, tattooed playboy with lean muscle and coiled strength. He's left a mile-long line of broken hearts in his wake. But when his dark eyes focus on me, I swear he's plotting how to maim everyone who's ever hurt me.

The three bikers swear to keep me safe.

They won't rest until the threat against me is eliminated.

But they didn't know what they'd dig up. Lies, corruption, and a trafficking ring are only the beginning.

My father's debts and horrifying choices reveal truths I can't escape.

The only way I'm surviving this mess is to trust the Feral Rebels MC.

And let Slash, Gunner, and Havoc claim me.

This book has a brief crossover with the Tonopah and Las Vegas, NV Chapters of the Royal Bastards MC. If you read Hell on Wheels, this is Molly's story.

CLAIMED BY THE BIKERS is a motorcycle club romance where the girl gets all the bad boys and doesn't have to choose between them to get her happy ever after.

I’m fake dating the boss of the Zarkov Bratva—what could possibly go wrong?

Lev Zarkov is a real-life monster.

No, correction, he’s actually the devil.

Every instinct tells me I don’t want to do this.

But Lev Zarkov can be very persuasive…

There are a million reasons why I shouldn’t agree to a date with Fletcher Huxley.

He’s a growly-faced, stubborn-streaked, international rugby legend trying to revive his flailing career in the US after being canned by his team overseas.

While he might have the good kind of thunder thighs, intriguing tattoos, and a booty of steel, he also holds the top position on my very short nemesis list thanks to what happened the first time we met.

Plus, his mustache is as terrible as the reason he’s picked me to be the woman he wants to date.

But he has one big checkmark in the why this date is a good idea column: he’s my brother’s new teammate.

They already hate each other.

And my brother has made an unfortunate habit of interfering with my love life recently.

So a revenge date with Fletcher to make my brother mad? While letting Fletcher think this date is merely for the good of the team?

Yep.

I’m in.

I’m moving to London for work in a month. And it’s just one date. What could possibly go wrong?

Until It Was Love is a banter-tastic romcom featuring an overgrown snack of a man with a soft spot for his purse dog, a normally optimistic life coach trying to live her best life, a mustache catastrophe, and one little tiny fainting spell. It stands alone and comes complete with a swoony happily ever after that will leave your heart in a happy puddle of joy.
