    Shezlez the Self-Proclaimed is an absurdist story about a poor man’s ambition to organise his own political party in an unnamed country characterised by moral apathy, poverty and heartless bureaucracy. Upon his first speech, so rousing as to attract the attention of the Progressive Party, Shezlez finds himself embroiled in a corrupt scheme of deceit and backstabbing in the leadup to the upcoming mayoral elections. A Machiavellian tale of political ambition, Shezlez the Self-Proclaimed examines the fickleness of loyalty, and interrogates the perennial question of whether the pursuit of power, no matter how idealistic its genesis, can ever remain a noble quest.

The twin of country heartthrob Joe Bob Blade has upended his enviable life by resigning as CEO of the family business.

But he bore a grudge against the brothers who left him to hold down the fort while they gallivanted off to follow their bliss.  
    Now Jake is content to rattle around in a rented Victorian mansion. He appears easygoing, though distracted. His recently dead friend haunts his thoughts, making him fear for his sanity.  
    Jake has a new career, one frowned upon in his social circle. He writes thrillers. The muse he finds in Port Townsend is just as inappropriate: the married, beguiling Chiara.

    At almost thirty years old, Honor Hayes is yet again dealing with the dumpster fire that has become her life. The queen of self-sabotage, she packs up her car and leaves town before the fallout after sleeping with her boss' wife. 
    Out of options, she reaches out to her cousin, Liberty Faulkner and is offered work with her Uncle Steven's construction company in the small, Colorado mountain town of Wynter. 
    Accepting the offer, her intention is simply to get back on her feet and get back on the road. But then, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. 
    Greek beauty, Amalia is in what is essentially a forced marriage to wealthy salon owner, Nocola Russo. She's far more valuable to him for her looks and phenomenal body than her skills working in one of his high-end salons. 
    Constantly under threat for any move her controlling husband doesn't like - particularly if she were to get pregnant - Amalia is forced to make the ultimate sacrifice for her unborn child. 
    She must escape. 
    A network of underground advocacy groups helps Amalia steal away to the other side of the country, where she is hidden in Wynter, Colorado. There, she just wants to finally be free to start over and have her baby and live in peace. 
    There, not only does she find the maternal embrace of Lady Wynter, but also brash tumbleweed, Honor. Will they find their way together, or will Honor yet again blow up her own life? 
    Journey back to Wynter as she once again wraps a new pair of lost souls into her fold, while saying goodbye to a beloved resident.

    Delivery jobs don’t usually come with a side of heroism. 
    Husband and wife duo Jay and Char run a transport starship-for-hire. They haul cargo and passengers across the galaxy—for the right price. Is it the prestigious job Jay’s mother wished he had? No, but disappointing her was nothing new. 
    When a pair of nonhuman travelers booked passage on Jay and Char’s ship, they failed to mention the whole host of trouble they’d be bringing with them. Now, the fate of the galaxy is in jeopardy, and it’s somehow up to a pair of middle-aged interplanetary freight haulers to fix it. 
    And the bigger question is: Will saving the galaxy finally be enough to make it onto Jay's mom's holiday brag letter?

    Minutes before my wedding, a phone call from my fiancé rips my life apart. 
    I flee to the Scottish Highlands, seeking sanctuary in Bannock, an idyllic town I visited as a child. 
    All I want is peace and quiet to mend my broken heart. Instead I lock horns with the grumpy Scotsman who runs my hotel. 
    I don't recognize him at first but it turns out he's Alasdair McIntyre, the first boy I ever kissed. 
    As a twelve-year-old, he was sweet, but now? His blunt remarks and cocky smirks infuriate me, while my comebacks only reinforce his view I'm a stuck-up big-city "lass. 
    I came here to heal, not be provoked by this irritatingly handsome Highlander. Yet beneath his gruff exterior and admittedly impressive muscles, there are glimmers of another side to the man. 
    I mustn't let my guard down. My heart is already cracked. If I let him in, I risk shattering it altogether . . .

    Oath of Honor - A promise to protect and serve… 
    Pregnant and in a killer’s crosshairs! 
    When Harper Crane is nearly abducted outside the law office where she works as an administrative assistant, she’s grateful two police officers are there to rescue her. At seven months pregnant she has no idea why someone is coming after her, especially since her criminal ex-husband is dead. She wants nothing more than to return to her boring life, but the attacks against her escalate, giving her little choice but to accept Steele’s protection. 
    Tactical police officer Steele Delaney believes someone within Harper’s ex-husband’s criminal enterprise is responsible for attacking her. But when key evidence is found in Harper’s apartment, he tries to understand why she’s being framed. He only trusts his fellow officers, and members of the Finnegan family. Staying under the radar isn’t easy, but neither is protecting his heart. Can he keep Harper and her baby safe long enough to plan their future?
