Danger
As far back as I can remember, I had no one. I had nothing. Now here I sit with so much to lose and so much to gain. Nate turning out to be my cousin honestly made sense. Him and I butting heads like we did… He’s a good guy, a pussy, but a good guy. Kristy and Nate will be very happy together.
I have a huge problem and I’m afraid it’s too late to save her now. The woman that has had me in a tailspin since an unforgettable moment in a men’s bathroom, and all the other hot and intense moments that followed, was now at risk. I did something I’d swore I’d never do. I got attached. It was worse than that, though. According to the guys, what I’m feeling is love. I can’t be in love with Kennedy. It wasn’t safe.
After Vin almost killed Nate, I decided it was time to get rid of Chain. So I walked into the precinct and up to Keith’s desk and we started going over how Chain worked, how to catch him and so on. The fucker knew half the answers because we were friends back home. He knew the shit I was messed up in, but he still had to ask. I knew the procedure.
Yes, I’m a fucking bodyguard now for Jake and Vicky, but it was better than being at the police station. The life as a bodyguard has definitely kept me on my toes. That’s what I needed too.
The problem I was in now… Once Chain finds out I’ve ratted on him. No one is safe, especially Kennedy. There was no way anyone was touching her. Over my dead fucking rotting corpse.
My dilemma now is how can I keep everyone safe once Chain found out? He would find out and he will come for me. My future was set in stone, but everyone else’s didn’t have to be though. So, all I had to do was keep them all safe until the cops had enough information to get him off the streets for good.
Knowing what I’m facing, I decided to drop my walls and let Kennedy all the way in. I wanted that as my last memories. Too bad in my life… nothing ever goes as planned.

Hidden Secrets series
(Each book can be read as stand alones, but because the series follows a ‘family’ it’s best to read in order to have the full understanding of each character)
Forbidden series
(Each book can be read as a stand alone but will overlap the previous stories.)
Stranded series
Lost Trilogy
(Must be read in order)
Stand Alone
Dangerously Yearning (Hidden Secrets, #7)— 2015
Danger Payne Mitchell has many dark secrets. Most of which he’d prefer to stay hidden. Meeting his family for the first time made him realize exactly what they could lose if he didn’t stay away. Even with that thought, he just couldn’t stay away. The thing Danger has learned was that when he had a plan, something always came along to derail it. This time it wasn’t something, but someone.
Kennedy Davidson was running. She was running as hard and fast as she could. She wishes she could say from her past, but since it wasn’t over, she couldn’t say that. Desperate times called desperate dangerous measures. The question was not would she survive her problem, but would she survive the man trying to save her?
Getting out from under what haunts us is not always cut and dry, but when things change in a moment of loneliness, our hauntings seem less intimidating. When you want something so bad and know you’d risk a life to get it, nothing can possibly come out right. When life means pain and love means death how will you stop Dangerously Yearning for what you can’t have.
This journey has been such an amazing experience for me. I have learned so much, but nothing has been more important than finding belief in myself. Belief that if I work hard enough anything is possible. This lesson was not an easy one for me to learn, but the people that I have come across along the way have been such amazing support that it became easier. I want to take this time to thank a few of them. They deserve to be acknowledged.
First, I want to start off with my girls
Kayla, Kristy, Leanne, Renee,
and
Mechelle.
The endless support and help with making my books polished has been amazing, but it is your friendship and our endless conversations, full of laughter, that have meant the most to me. If I could say one thing to each one of you that you remember it would be this:
We all fight our own demons and struggle down our own paths, but with amazing people to light the way makes even the darkest days seem bright.
Thank you so much ladies, truly from the bottom of my heart, you guys are aces in my book!
To
Vicky
, oh girl what can I say to you that I have already said a million and one times? You have been walking right alongside me from the very beginning. Our endless chats about books and book boyfriends to your encouraging words with each of my books… I can tell you right now that Jake will not be enough thanks for everything you’ve done for me, but I think he’ll keep you occupied enough. HA!! I love you girlie!
To
Kylie
and
Ashley
, oh Lord what dare you say to two crazy chicks? How about, I lubbers you both so much! Yeah, I think that’s a safe topic. Haha. You girls are like the best friends that a girl could ask for! You’ll be forever in my heart and I will always be there for you!
To
Allison
, Man girl what can I say… You are one of the best freaking people I have ever met. I’m so grateful to call you a friend. Our conversations cover such random topics, but we bonded over books and you entered my heart because of the amazing person you are. Don’t change. I’m always here no matter what. <3 Hugs! <3
To
Shannon
, we’ve been walking the same path, but at different times, always seeming to miss each other. Behind you, you leave a trail, a brightness, from your beautiful heart and loving personality. From the moment I met you until now, you have made an imprint on my life and on my heart that will forever remain. I don’t know what I can say to show you how much you mean, but from every text or message…the light you give grows brighter. I love you girl!
To
Faith
, you have been more than amazing support to me throughout my journey and I can’t even begin to tell you thank you enough. Even when I can’t, you do and that touches my heart so profoundly. You are AMAZING and I am so blessed to call you a friend. I love you!
To
Kaylie,
My dear sweet, loveable Kaylie. You are just… simply… I’m at a loss for words. You’re friendship has been a guiding light as I weaved my way through my path and there is no way I can thank you for that. The strength you carry about you day in and day out is astounding and even more inspiring. Girl, you are one cool chick! I love ya! Here’s to more time with laughs and inspiration.
To
Isa,
You are a driving force in getting my name out there. Without your constant support and ability to make me laugh even when it’s the last thing I want to do, I’m not sure I’d be this far. You are simply amazing and soon you’ll have your own book with your own book boyfriend hehehe. <3 Hugs! <3
To
Jennifer, Shawna, Kimberly, Kia, Amber, Kim B., Michelle, Kerry, Jamie, Tabatha
(crap I know I’m forgetting people), you girls are simply amazing. Each of you sprout wings and share your beautiful personalities with the world on a daily basis. Don’t let anything dim your lights. You are ALL in my heart and I’ll always be here when you need me and even when you don’t. <3 you all bunches!
To the
Beta Ladies
, you girls are one hell of an amazing group of women. Each of you so unique and talented, I’m winded by your support and guidance. I wouldn’t be here without each of you. So from my heart to all of you, Thank you so much!
To my
Readers
, what can I say? Without you guys, I wouldn’t be writing this out to begin with. I’d still have all these books sitting in a notebook on my shelf never to see the light of day. Because of all of you, I continue to type them out and thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to do something that I love. Each of you has touched my heart in a way I can’t describe. Thank you, thank you, thank you! <3 Hugs! <3
I am sure there are people that I’m missing and I’m so terribly sorry if I did. Please know that you are still important to me and always will be (even if I spaced and didn’t get you on the list). Thank you for reading another one of my books…Here’s to the next one y’all!!! *waves*
Writing has always been an outlet for me. Growing up, I’d write poems based on my moods or events happening around me. Eventually they grew from there. It was a great way for me to clear my head at night. A way to kind of shut down the day, so to speak. Now here I am so many years later, finally taking the leap into the author world.
My husband has been my rock this whole journey. We’ve been married for twelve years and have three amazingly beautiful children (11, 9, 6). They are the reason I push myself as hard as I do. They are my reason to strive each day to be better, to give them better. We are currently living in Wyoming, but we have lived in Alaska, Illinois, Georgia and Tennessee. Out of all the places we’ve lived, Alaska has been my favorite and most inspirational too.
When I’m not writing, I’m chasing my three kids, a five year old Siberian Husky, or even sometimes my husband *winks*. We love having family craft day. If it is a down day, you can find me curled up with a good book or occasionally watching some television.
Our lives are like books. We’ve just got to write the story. So let’s write the best one to hit the pages.
