  She violated every rule of therapy to save her patient, and herself. But at what cost? Her career, her marriage, and everything she thought she knew about desire. 
  Surrender to Desire is an erotic lesbian romance set at Christmas, where quiet longing turns into a love that refuses to be denied. Therapist Olivia fights a losing battle against her feelings for Alison, the woman who comes to her in pieces and begins to put her back together. When their forbidden connection moves from the counselling room to carefully negotiated intimacy, both women are forced to confront who they really are. Boundaries are discussed, consent is explicit, trust is tested, and aftercare matters. 
  As their attraction evolves into explorations of power and submission, Olivia learns to let go of control while Alison discovers the strength of a confident dominant. Within the chosen family of the Awakening of Desire series, they find people who understand that love does not always follow conventional rules. Secrets surface, loyalties are questioned, and the holidays become a crucible for truth, forgiveness, and second chances.

  WITH THE HELP OF AN ALASKA NATIVE GRANDMOTHER SUFFERING FROM DEMENTIA, VILLAGE POLICE CHIEF NATHAN ACTIVE HUNTS DOWN THE KILLER WHO HID A WOMAN’S DISMEMBERED BODY IN THE ICE CELLAR OF AN ABAN-DONED INUPIAT FISH CAMP. 
  The case starts when Tommie Leokuk’s husband brings her to Active’s office to show him what she found in her latest midnight ramble around the Arctic hamlet of Chukchi. From the pouch of her traditional atiqluk, she pulls a human jawbone with a single molar still in place. 
  Tommie’s dementia means she can’t explain where she found it. As her husband explains, “She lost her brain few years ago.” 
  At first, Chief Active doesn’t know whether she’s found a murder victim or an old grave opened by erosion or scavengers. 
  He soon discovers it’s very much a murder case, one of the most tangled he’s seen. The victim had two lovers, one male, one female. Both become suspects as the investigation proceeds. 
  At the same time, Active grapples with PTSD from being shot in a prior case. When he starts to wonder how his gun would taste, he realizes it’s time to see Chukchi’s tribal healer, Nelda Qivits, who believes anything can be cured by a cup of bitter sourdock tea in her little cabin on a back street of Chukchi.

  Something lurks in the darkness of the trees... 
  A group of friends goes on a hike in search of an ancient spring deep inside the forest. Mythical stories come from the woods - tales of gnomes, fairies, and other not so benevolent creatures. Everything changes for the group when they run into a hiker that mysteriously vanished in the area weeks ago. She is malnourished, dehydrated, and hurt, but she keeps raving about the danger in the woods, repeating one incoherent word over and over in a foreign language. By the time they turn back the way they came, it's too late. 
  There's something ancient in these woods. 
  Something far more dangerous than fairies and gnomes. 
  And it's after them.
