It was inevitable that someone from my old life was going to find me at the Vipers’ Den.I was ready for it, but I didn’t expect him to step in. Luc Batiste, the Vipers’ Council, was my savior. He wasn’t loud and showy like the others. But it was always the quiet ones you had to watch out for.Now, I owed him my life. But he wanted the truth, and that was more than I could give. *** Luc There was something about her that never seemed to fit. Maria didn’t belong behind a bar slinging beers and booze.She was too good for that. Too good for me. So, I kept my distance.But I was there when that customer got a little too familiar, and there was no way I was going to let it go.In my world, there are rules, and once a Viper claimed a woman, she was his. I just claimed Maria in the loudest way possible. She thought she could hide from me. That her secrets are safe. But they weren’t.Maria was mine now. That meant I owned every inch of her, including her past.There was no getting away from it. No getting away from me. Sooner or later, Maria was going to have to accept it because I wasn’t letting her go. Devious Lies is the second in the contemporary romance series of connected standalones, Jersey Bad Boys.

Series Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Highly Recommended Read! They say quiet ones are the worst well you’ve not seen anything until you meet Luc. WOW! His inner beast is about to be unleashed when he finally after months of obsessing about Maria gets the chance to claim her as his. The steamy erotic sex is off the charts with this storyline and will make you hot and bothered. Luc has his own special way of giving extra pleasure and let me tell you ladies, you’ll want a Luc of your own! A little action, lots of loving and a swoon-worthy storyline which is not just entertaining but one you won’t forget for a long time. If I could give this a 10* review I would, it’s that good!” -Bookbub Reviewer⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”Maria is hiding something and Luc is determined to figure it out. In the meantime, he falls for her from afar and things go south in good, and not so good ways. The drama and suspense is palpable, though easily handled the Viper way.

Merciful Lies Desperate to pay off his debt, Anna Keller’s brother offers her to dangerous, tattooed Nico Fury for one night. Six months later, Anna’s brother is dead and she returns to Nico — pregnant with his child… A blazing-hot dark romance that kicks off a series! Lies can be merciful. It just depends on the why. Anna I knew the second I saw him, my life would change forever. When my brother offers me as payment to Nico Fury, the king of the Vipers, how can I refuse? Tattooed, built, and tall, he was the only man I saw when I walked into the room. It was like he occupied all the available space, sitting on his throne of blood, sweat, and lies. Nerves assailed me, but I owed my brother too much to let anything happen to him. One night. That was all. But it would leave me wrecked. Actions always had consequences. Six months later, my brother was killed by a rival organization, and now they were after me. There was only one place I could go to keep my unborn baby safe. I just hoped the king would be merciful. *** Nico Perfect things didn’t exist, at least not in my experience. But she was pretty close. I had her in my bed for one night, and I couldn’t shake the memory. No, I wasn’t meant to keep soft things like Anna Keller. My life belonged to my crew, and we were a vicious group. Hell, we weren’t called Vipers for nothing. But she was different. She made me want, and I loved and hated her for it. Anna was light in a world of constant darkness. She was all warmth and beauty like no other. And I craved her like a drug. Six months had passed since I took her in return for clearing her brother’s debt to me, but that man attracted trouble like honey did flies. It wasn’t long before I learned Sam Keller had gotten himself killed. Less than an hour later, Anna came back to me, on her knees, asking for sanctuary. I knew the moment I saw the swell of her stomach she was carrying my baby. Anna thought coming here would protect her, but she was walking right into the Viper’s nest. Before I was finished, my little runaway would be begging me for mercy. Merciful Lies is the first in the contemporary romance series of connected standalones, Jersey Bad Boys.
