Stop The Wedding – A Snowed Inn Story
A desperate plea for help and an admission of love sends Patrick racing to stop his best friend from marrying the wrong man.
Patrick never stopped loving Declan, even if he shoved him away at graduation when they kissed. His alpha-type brothers and father, with all their firefighter history, would never accept him being bi, or understand his need to step outside of the family firm and be a cop. So, he hides how he feels, and ends up losing the only man he’s ever really loved. The only reconciliation they tried was the night he found out Declan was engaged, and it broke him that by staying silent he had lost his once chance at happiness. That is, until he receives a desperate phone call from Declan asking to be rescued. Through travel chaos and storms, Patrick finally reaches the Colorado mountains, but with an empty wedding room and no sign of Declan or his fiancé, he knows he’s too late.
All too familiar with rejection, jilted by his fiancé on his wedding day, and lost, Declan has no idea what comes next. He never imagined he’d be entirely alone after the wedding party leave, or an avalanche would trap him in the hotel over Christmas. And worse? Patrick has shown up, is staying in the hotel with him and won’t leave him alone. Sharing a room with his former best friend is the last thing Declan wants, but maybe this is a sign that he needs to confront the past and move on with his life. But when secrets and truths are revealed, Declan has to make the biggest decision of his life. Is it possible for him to fall out of love with the one man who really holds his heart?

The Soldier and the Bodyguard
Someone wants JC dead, and Adrian is the only thing standing in the way. Has war followed them home? Or is something more sinister at play?
JC struggles to understand his place in the world, and despite being wealthy beyond imagination, he’s never found real happiness outside of his friendship with Adrian. Enlisting in the army is his attempt at finding purpose, but tragedy strikes, and only the Ellery Veterans Center can help put back the pieces of his shattered life. With a bullet fragment in his brain and seemingly no chance of ever being the man he once was, he begins to lose hope.
Adrian didn’t hesitate to follow his best friend to war, but with their unit decimated in an ambush and JC bleeding into the dirt, Adrian buries his hopes for the future to keep the man he loves safe. Acting as JC’s bodyguard means he is secure for now, but threats from an unknown person escalate to attempted murder, and Adrian has no choice but to take JC and run. When the Sanctuary Foundation intervenes and takes them into their care, they might be safe, but revealed secrets could destroy everything.
Sometimes, even if love finds a way through tragedy, it can be impossible to imagine forever.
This book features characters from my action-adventure romantic suspense Sanctuary series, but you do not have to have read Sanctuary to enjoy this story. This best-friend-to-lover, hurt-comfort romance has bodyguards, threats, found family, and a guaranteed love-filled happily ever after.
