They say eyes are the windows to the soul—but when he looks at me through hues of slate-green and flaring blue embers, I’m terrified of what’s watching me from behind his clashing gaze, something primal and feverish that threatens to melt me like fire in ice.
I fear falling into Kallum Locke’s pitch-black soul.
But after I’m called to a crime scene to investigate the most gruesome act of violence to descend on the legendary town of Hollow’s Row, I have no choice but to turn to Kallum, to the man I had locked away in an asylum for the criminally insane.
He’s the leading expert on all things Nietzsche and occult. And now, to get answers, I’m forced to make a deal with the devil himself.
Kallum:
Really, eyes are the windows to the soul? Then I wonder what little Halen St. James thinks of all the cryptic eyes watching her in the killing fields… I wonder if the hairs on her delicate nape lifted away, if a thrilling shiver raced over her soft skin. She’s desperate for the answer, and she’ll do anything to uncover it—even make a deal with me, dangling freedom like bait on a hook.
But she’s far more tempting to sink my teeth into than any lure.
This is book one of the Southern Wedding Series but there is a sequel, did you read it first? I didn't not but I didn't feel lost in the story. I am going back to read it though just to make sure I didn't miss anything else. 😊
Harlow is floored when she finds as wedding invitation in her mail and it is from her ex who broke her four years ago as they were graduation college. Sure she managed to move forward and start up her vet practice as she always planned. The love of her family always right beside her but dating and moving forward, not so much. As much as she doesn't want to go to this wedding, she made a promise to be there for his best day of his life. So she pushes herself to go.
Travis is certain that he is doing the right thing and moving forward. But is he really? He works too much at his shared vet practice. His sisters and mom are their for him in every way they can be. When the wedding day arrives and one thing after another seems to go wrong he begins to feel a little defeated. Sparks fly inside when he sees her across the room.
This could be one of the best second chance stories I have read. The characters are fun and witty with sizzling sparks. Could it be possible that they have found what they lost? Communication was a huge part of the issues all those years ago, can they learn to talk to one another this time around?
I am excited for what the next book brings.

When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...
Brett - The quiet loner. Content with life in his small town and a job he loves—except for the one thorn in his side. Kelly—the world traveler that pops in and out of his life, taking a small piece of his heart with him every time.
Until the day she comes back, broken and adrift.
Can he show her there is more to life than bright lights and endless wandering?
Could his heart be enough to finally tame the restless need to run?
Or will she break his heart all over again and leave.
The last thing any professional hockey player wants is to be the old man in the game. The guy who doesn't know when it's time to retire. Still, I can't bear the thought of leaving the game.
This past year I've reflected on all my regrets, and I told myself that once I retire it'll be the time to settle down and start a family. But this is where it gets tricky.
I think I've found her—my Mrs. Although she'll deny our connection to anyone who asks. We've been sleeping together casually and since I'm still playing hockey, I've let her get what she wants—me—whenever she wants.
After being told my career as a player is over, the owner of Florida Fury grants me a shot to stay in the game. A coaching position I didn't know I wanted until it was offered. The catch? He's also passing the family business down to his daughter.
Who's his daughter?
The woman who's been in and out of my bed for the past year. Which means the woman I intend to make my wife is now my new boss.

Kane and Jana have been a long awaited couple and their story was well worth the wait. It was almost so good that you forget this is the end of a fun witty series that we all loved.
Watching Kane and Jana go from the hook ups as player/owner's daughter to the friction of coach/owner as they tried to fight thier chemistry and underlying feelings was very interesting. There were many times I wanted to smack them both upside the head. Kane and Jana found themselves in the media forfront as the followers had lots to say about the new positions and how they would handle things. This just added another level to the feelings they were trying to hide from everyone.
When they find the lines crossed once again, it's different this time. Kane had decided before the changes that he was ready for all in. Jana took a little longer to understand her feelings and realize what she really wanted. Things couldn't be that simple with these two thought and there are some other underlying things they need to find a common agreeance on. Will those things be the divide or will they open their hearts to the whole package?
Sad to see this group of hockey fellas and their wonderful ladies come to an end. Excited for the start of a new series full of football and frollic.

Tia Louise has revealed the covers and blurb for FILTHY!
Releasing June 9, 2022
FILTHY
By Tia Louise
Good girls are saved by princes, but my savior is a monster.
After my father died and my family splintered, I became a target, a pawn in a game I didn't know I was playing.
Then he appeared—dark, dangerous, tormented, and always just within reach.
He makes me feel something I lost years ago: Safe.
And he thinks he can keep me at arm's length.
Once upon a time I was a hero, until the sins of my father caught up with me, and I was forced into darkness.
I should've died in that fire. Instead, I served evil men, until I risked it all by walking away.
Now I'm a wanted man. At any time, I could be taken down for what I owe.
What I don't expect to find in my hiding place is her—broken, beautiful, so damn tempting.
I shouldn't touch her with my filthy hands. I was hired to keep her safe.
But every day it gets harder, then she starts sneaking into my bed.
Together, we're filthy, but together, we can find our way through the flames.
(FILTHY is a stand-alone, bodyguard, romantic suspense novel. It contains a fierce, wounded alpha-protector and the filthy girl he's hired to protect... No cheating. No cliffhangers.)
She was the complete opposite of me in every way; sweet, spontaneous, and full of sunshine... she was also half my age.
The world was her playground, and Nova Skye spent every breath fearlessly exploring it. Her passion for adventure was contrary to the solitude I loved, yet somehow, I couldn’t get enough.
Her innocence sparked a flame in my empty soul, burning down every defense I had. By the time I started to believe in the us she said we could be, it was too late. My free-spirited rebel was gone, taking what was left of me with her.
Without her, I learned that home wasn’t just a place, it was Nova… and it was finally time to come home.
Although I take my job very seriously—being the resident charmer, the man responsible for helping clients with security, all the while making it look like I’m the newest love interest of insanely gorgeous women—it looks like it’s all fun and games. I’m getting paid to go on dates to some of the most glamourous places all around the world after all, but at the end of the day, it’s still work. When the assignment is over, I walk away—usually with a smile and another notch in my bedpost, but who am I to turn down the perks? This new assignment should be no different. I can play any role handed to me. Hell, I love a new challenge. Only Archer Bremen is different… and not just for the obvious reasons. His British accent hits me in a way I never expected. The scowl on his face makes me think of a million things I could do to make it fade. His smile tells me that this new assignment is going to change everything…

Until he comes face to face with Emma Jameson—the one who got away. The pair are bonded by a secret from their past, one that none in their inner circle can ever know about...
Thanks to her father, Emma is no stranger to the MMA world. UFC Middleweight champion, Ryley Jameson, is known far and wide for his scandalous antics in and out of the ring.

Someone demands retribution for the sins of the past, and they've chosen to make Emma their first target. Determined to keep her safe, Carter will do whatever it takes to protect her, even if that means putting his life on the line.
As hidden truths are revealed, Carter and Emma find that no one in their circle is safe... and this is only the beginning.
His designer suits, expensive shoes, flashy car, and cruel intelligence can’t hide what he is underneath.
Empty.
He fooled me once, and I swore he’d never get a second chance.
There is nothing he can do to redeem himself in my eyes.
As my most hated rival, the only time he makes me smile, is when I’ve bested him in the boardroom.
But someone far worse is out to get me. Perhaps, even hurt me.
The police have no leads, and I have no idea who it could be.
I do know one man who doesn’t play by the rules. One man who could protect me.
I’d rather live in fear than ask for his help.
