The Sixth Queen
Kings & Queens Anthology

     When the current Queen and heir to the thrown are murdered, my life is changed forever.
     Our people are peaceful, and prosperous, and a big part of why, is the way the royal family.  Long ago our people realized that training a ruler from a young age was only successful if the people supported the person in line to rule.  In order to maintain a healthy bloodline, and peace within the ranks, every sixth queen is chosen from a family of common status. 
     That wasn't supposed to be me.  My younger cousin was supposed to be the sixth queen.  I was supposed to teach her, and guide her as she grew into adulthood before she became the sixth queen.
     But fate had other plans, and now that my husband is missing, I have to rule my people as we recover from the first war we've seen in generations.  ​

Everything In Me
Everything and Always series Book 2

     To say Harlow screwed up big time is an understatement. She had been young and scared, and she let that fear get the best of her. She left the man of her dreams, the only man to ever love so passionately, so desperately, the only man she wanted to spend the rest of her life with…all because she was afraid of her father’s reaction. 
     Max had been one of the guest speakers for Harlow’s studies, one of her teachers. She wasn’t supposed to fall in love with him, but who can argue when fate arises?
     When she had to leave quickly, Harlow was so overcome by fear that she didn’t even take a minute to think about the consequences of her actions. Not only did she break her own heart by leaving, but also his. Could Max ever be able to forgive her for that?
     When he shows up unexpectedly for the big family dinner one weekend, it looks like she might get her chance to find out. Letting go of the fear of her father’s reaction is easier said than done, but if it means having a second chance with Max then surely it would all be worth it, won’t it?
     What will happen when the two most important men in Harlow’s life finally come face to face? 
​     But it’s not her father alone she has to worry about. Harlow has a secret. It’s a big secret, an important life-altering secret. If she thought Max wouldn’t forgive her before, now he’ll probably hate her for life. Even if Harlow explains, even if she apologizes, could it ever be enough?
