    I burned my bridges a long time ago and headed for the big city. Life was fast, but I was making it—until I wasn't anymore. I want a do over. Confront my past. Starting with the man who swore he loved me and left anyway. The big, bad biker who broke my heart.

    I never got over Nevaeh Ellis. Never could forgive her either. My brothers believe she's disloyal, and there's no making that right. But why is she back? And why is she so angry? The longer she's in town, the more I wonder what really happened back in the day. Is she the bad guy—or was I? 
     
     
     
    There's no time to figure it out. The feud between my club and the Rebel Raiders is raging out of control, trouble is dogging Nevaeh's heels, and if I don't make the right call this time—she's not gone. She's dead.

    Sin cuts deep. Redemption cuts deeper.
     
    In Crash, Book 1 of the Sinners and Saints series, the line between salvation and destruction is razor-thin—and crossing it comes at a cost.
     
    She thought she had escaped her past. New city, new rules, no attachments. But when her world collides with his, everything begins to unravel.
     
    He’s dangerous, untouchable, and carries secrets sharp enough to destroy anyone who gets too close. In a world ruled by power, loyalty, and unspoken codes, he doesn’t believe in second chances—until her.
     
    Their connection is explosive, volatile… inevitable.
     
    As buried truths rise to the surface, alliances fracture and enemies close in. Trust becomes a risk neither of them can afford, yet walking away might cost even more. Because in a game where sinners wear crowns and saints don’t survive, love isn’t just complicated—it’s lethal.
     
    Dark, intense, and impossible to put down, Crash is a gripping start to a series where every choice has consequences—and every heartbeat feels like a collision waiting to happen.

    Archer Kemp is tired of his life. Past wars, a cheating ex-wife, and a son he barely sees have made him empty inside; but things get worse when he awakens behind bars in a government facility called The Tower with an ensemble of others, some struggling to remember how they arrived. 
    The group soon finds themselves in a grim world where they’re starved and experimented on for the sake of military research. To further complicate the situation, his estranged brother shows up in the cell next to him before they’re mentally broken and bullyragged into descending the tower’s treacherous levels. 
    The moments that follow force Archer into his old wartime mentality—no man left behind—to try and keep them alive during a series of monstrous trials no human is meant to survive. And he must do it while fighting newly forming urges growing inside him blacker than the demons of his past. 
    Violent, fast-paced, creepy, and full of dread, The Tower pushes you down a dark slope of nightmarish moments mixed with one man’s broken realities.
