A Dance With Devils: Lies And Truths Trilogy Book 1, page 16
“He’s going to thrash about,” Gray says, climbing on top of him until he’s sitting astride the solid body. “Protect his head. Alice?” I look up, away from Malachi’s lax face.
“He’s not dead?”
“Not yet. Have you got this? You need to hold tightly. He’s strong when he comes round. If it fucking works this time.” I sniff and run my fingers into his hair, gripping it severely to keep it still on my naked knees. “Goddamn, you’re a selfish son of a bitch, Malachi,” he says, drawing out a syringe. “A pain in my ass.”
Selfish.
But not dead. Not yet anyway. I can do that, understand it.
And I can still help.

TRUTH AND LIES TRILOGY
If you’ve not yet read the story of Gray and Hannah, who you’ve just met in this trilogy, you can start here with:
A Distraction Of Lies
I never knew.
One minute I was flying high and the next I came crashing down so harshly the world shattered.
It was all a lie.
But then he came.
He came with his dark eyes and his cutting words and his cruel, cruel stare.
Grayson Rothburg. Recluse. Genius. Truth speaker.
My friend Gray.
My real.
My hero in disguise.
He says I should move on. Change. And now he's offered me a diversion, a way to help me re-evaluate what's left of me.
The trouble is, I don't know how real that is either.
And I'm not sure I care.

The Broderick Saga
(Co Write with Rachel De Lune – Hart De Lune)
Sex. Secrets. Lies. Scandals.
Start here with:
The Muse
Cold, egotistical and a Foxton.
He tore my final performance to shreds with his pen, and embarrassed me for all the world to see.
But hate wasn’t what I felt for Scott Foxton when he touched me. Enemy wasn’t what I thought when he rescued me either.
I got lost in dreams and hope, and ignored the threats that would follow my own deceit.
For once in my life, family loyalty could be damned.
But then I saw the painting.
And now I can’t lie anymore.
The man I shouldn’t want is the one that holds my heart.
I just have to trust that he’ll still believe me when he knows the truth about Persephone Broderick.
The Broderick Saga continues with;
The Lawyer
The Writer
And The Fallen.
The Cane Novels
(Also Hart De Lune)
Start here with:
Innocent Eyes
"If he's gross, I'm bailing."
That's what I said to my supposed best friend when she asked me to take her place. A blind date, she said. What harm could it do?
He was charming. Beautiful. God's finest creation. He wined me and dined me. Made me do things I'd never before dreamt of in the bedroom. It was perfect. Dangerous. Arousing.
But Jenny didn’t tell me the full story. She didn’t tell me about the debt she owed. And now Quinn Cane wants his money's worth, and he’s going to make me pay whatever way he can.
“A debt needs to be paid.”
The woman who came to meet me didn’t owe me money. I could tell by her innocent eyes. Still, the debt will be paid either way.
She was something to play with and use as I saw fit, but something about Emily Brooks made me want to keep her. So she became my dirty girl. Pure. Innocent. Mine.
Then she whispered my damned name and invaded my world, changing its reasoning.
She wasn’t meant to break the rules. But she rolled my dice and won.
Shame. Forgiveness. Dark. Erotic. Romance. Mafia.
This book is intended for mature audiences. 18+ only.
The Stained Duet
Once Upon A (Book 1)
Alana Williams is three published authors. She has been for years, but now she wants to add another voice to her whirlwind of deadlines and unachievable targets. Trouble is, she knows nothing of her latest literary undertaking.
*****
Alana
It began as research. Just research. The technical approach. One that delivers the content necessary for a hidden culture to seem plausible, even if it’s not. Readers expect perfection from me. They want the experience. They need to be taken on a journey. That’s my job as a writer.
Blaine Jacobs is his name. He’s my research. A man who seems as logical and focused as me. A man who agrees to help. A man who, regardless of his stature in the community, seems to offer a sense of realism to this strange section of society. And even if he does occasionally interrupt my data with dark brooding eyes and a questionably filthy mouth, what does it matter? It’s just research, isn’t it? It’s not real. None of this is. Nothing will come of it or change my mind.
So why am I confused?
I’m becoming lost.
Falling apart.
And Blaine Jacobs, no matter how calm he might have seemed at first, now appears to linger on the edges of sanity, pushing my boundaries with every whispered word.
18+ ONLY. Intended for mature audiences.

********
Alexander White, the wealthy business man with looks to die for. Just like the other colours you’d think.......but no.
He came from a very different place and made some of his money a very different way.
And he keeps it well hidden because the truth would destroy everything he has. All that he’s worked for would be gone in an instant if they ever found out what he’s capable of, or what he really did and who he did it for. So he keeps people far away with metaphorical games and walls to deceive and confuse.
He doesn’t do relationships, he doesn’t do emotions and he certainly doesn’t do love.
He does money. Making it, manipulating it and spending it whist he plays with women who know what they’re signing up for.
Three people shaped who he is today. One damaged him beyond repair, another taught him to control the rage, and a decent one helps him to consider his options more appropriately.
But be under no illusions ladies, Mr White has not been a nice man, and he will probably never be a decent man, but as long as he keeps up his image, and nothing gets through his barriers, no one will ever see the truth.
Life’s good for Elizabeth Scott, successful business, happy kitchen and a great sister who deals with all the expensive people so she doesn’t have to. She just cooks, bakes and smiles her way through each day......well most of the time, anyway, that is when her great sister isn’t pushing her to, “get out there a bit more,” or “sort her shit out.”
Then the biggest contract of their lives comes up..... And the ever useless London tube, with her sister in it, catastrophically breaks down. Unfortunately, that means only one thing. She’ll have to deal with some of that wealth herself, and that means the devastating Mr Alexander White in all his glory.
Life suddenly couldn’t get worse, regardless of his unfairly gorgeous backside.
She has no idea what the hell she’s doing.
