Melanie Jordan’s life seemed perfect. Until masked intruders arrive at her house, demanding gold she doesn’t have. A savage blow to the head puts her in a coma for four weeks. When Melanie regains consciousness, she learns her husband has been murdered and her ten-year-old daughter is missing. Private Eye Dan Reno begins investigating, but nothing about the case makes sense. Was there gold at the house or wasn’t there? Was Melanie’s husband hiding something?

It’s a two-for-one deal when a pair of accused rapists from a New Jersey-based gang surfaces in South Lake Tahoe.

Ultrarunning’s Buckle Fever: Origins of the Western States Endurance Run—a book that chronicles the moment in 1974 when Gordy Ainsleigh dared to run 100 miles alongside the Tevis Cup horses. His audacious feat ignited a movement—and redefined the limits of human endurance. It became more than a race. It became a rebellion against doubt. At its heart were co-founders, Mo Livermore and Shannon Weil (MoShan), two women who helped shape the race’s formative years, which lead the way for the worldwide sport of ultra trail running.

Writing Breaking Chains: Escaping the Darkness of an Abusive Marriage has been an amazing, profoundly emotional, transformational journey and experience. I have dedicated this book to all those brave men and women who have endured the silent suffering of an abusive relationship or marriage and those who seek to understand and even heal from such an abhorrent and dehumanising experience. This book is not just a guide. It is a testament of resilience, courage and strength to all those who have endured and survived abuse in varying proportions and degrees.

I had it all–speed, skill, and a one-way ticket to the pros. But one bad hit shattered my career and left me with a busted leg, a bruised ego, and no clue what comes next. Enter Thora, my no-nonsense research partner who’s too smart, too fierce, and too beautiful for a washed-up guy like me. She’s got a sharp mind, big dreams, and zero patience for my pity party. Plus, she sees straight through my game face to all the broken parts of me, and instead of running away she challenges me to do better.

I can't tear my eyes away from her. She's incredible, the best soccer midfielder I've ever seen. Raw passion on the field. A hundred percent my type, but a thousand percent a distraction I can't afford right now. I've dated other athletes before. We're all too focused on our game for anything meaningful off the field. And usually, I prefer it that way. But she's all muscle and grit, with fierce eyes that let me know she'd wreck my body. And I'd love every second.

A professional soccer player willing to sacrifice everything to protect the woman who once broke his heart. A steamy one-night stand becomes a forbidden campus affair that could destroy futures. And a broken champion finds healing in the one woman who won't let him give up on himself.

I don't do relationships, but when a gorgeous bartender presses her chest in my face on New Year's Eve, I take it as a sign that maybe I should bend my rules. I’ve been under so much pressure lately, between my agent and my soccer prospects and my abusive biological father trying to extort money I don’t even have. What better way to distract myself from the pressures of going pro than to get under a woman whose curves could make a venus statue jealous? Fern is everything a man could ask for: unbearably sexy, brilliantly smart, and oh-so-responsive in bed.

A fierce almost-nurse who doesn’t have time for her annoyingly hot instructor. A team dentist who moves in with a hockey player for a fake revenge fling—and catches very real feelings. A midwife who thought one night would be enough to get a certain Crawford man out of her system. Spoiler: it wasn’t. From classrooms to locker rooms to the quirky streets of Oak Creek, these women are brilliant, busy, and absolutely not looking for love. Too bad love doesn’t follow bedside protocol.

From the first bite to the final crumb, this is the saga of that biscuit, told with the seriousness it never asked for and the depth it could never deserve. Along the way, hunger wrestles with hesitation, distractions arrive in the form of a knock at the door and phantom phone calls, and the great philosophical questions of our time are asked—such as whether regret tastes different when it is edible, and why the fridge is always worth checking at least three times.

To make matters worse, Sceach Gheal, Typhon’s home, doesn’t contain much to do. There’s no sitting area, no library, heck, there aren’t even proper servants, just some small, ornery dragons Typhon keeps around to do his dirty work.

*INTERCONNECTED STANDALONE* While Aodhan and Sierra’s story has come to an end (or a new beginning), Aislan’s story will continue in Resilient, a stand-alone novel. Aislan made a deal, his life in exchange for his brothers. At the time, it had seemed like a good idea, but now it has sunk in...

The human brain is remarkably pliable, capable of reshaping itself while still producing firm, enduring thoughts. Across the stages of life, our neuroplasticity gradually declines, yet the mind continues to adapt, compensate, and evolve. Technology, however, does not age as we do. It accelerates relentlessly—its pace now far exceeding the slow cadence of human biological evolution, which has largely plateaued some 100,000 years ago. This widening gap raises an essential question: what happens when our tools evolve faster than the minds that wield them?
