Here’s the set-up:

Carter Phillips has returned from multiple deployments, and he’s brought a few demons home with him. War has left him scarred, inside and out, and he’s counting on the peace and isolation of his family’s farm to keep his head screwed on straight. What he doesn’t bargain for is Amy Williams, the new horse trainer. She’s kinder than he deserves, tougher than he expects, with a hidden core of vulnerability that triggers his need to possess and protect her.

Amy has finally pieced her life back together, after being forced to give up everything and assume a new identity. Now she’s safe, no longer the target of accusations and death threats—but she’s also alone. The only danger to her secrets and her celibacy is Carter Phillips, smoking-hot former Marine—and her boss’s brother. With each passing day, she finds it harder to lie to him about who she is—and who she wants.

Neither of them wants to talk about the past, but the more time they spend together, the closer they become. When the truth comes out, will it set them free or tear them apart forever?

***A sizzling standalone romance***

Here’s the set-up:

USA Today bestselling author Gemma James brings you six darkly intense books in one COMPLETE series bundle. Over 1300 pages of action-packed dark romance that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the last page. Reader discretion is advised.

I was fifteen when I sent the love of my life to prison for a crime he didn’t commit. Back then Rafe was my brother’s best friend and off-limits, but that didn’t stop me from drooling over him. I’ve never forgotten the guy whose green eyes made me weak in the knees.

Rafe hasn’t forgotten me either. Eight years later, I find him on my doorstep with revenge on the mind.

The twisted part of this story?

I still want him, even though he’s holding me captive on an island. He says I’ve got eight years of misery to atone for, and every move he makes is designed to shame and punish.

Instead, his touch lights us both on fire.

But the lie I told years ago is ricocheting. Neither of us saw it coming. The violence, death, and betrayal that leave us in ruins. Redemption seems impossible because we can’t undo what’s been done.

I belong to him as much as he belongs to me, and we’ll fight for each other or go down in flames trying.

Includes all 6 books in the Condemned series: Torrent, Rampant, Fervent, Vagrant, Deviant, and Descent.

NOTE TO READERS: Intended for mature readers who enjoy a dark contemporary romance with kidnapping and other disturbing themes. Not for the faint of heart. You’ve been warned.

Here’s the set-up:

This book is a beautiful and moving allegory of loss and coping, and is particularly poignant for children who may be dealing with death and grief for the first time.

This version of Super Dog Zam targets the 6-9 year age group to aid in your family’s grief journey. In this edition, we aim to provide an introduction to the concepts of death and grief in a relatable, uplifting story, followed by a workbook including age-appropriate questions to guide children through their own thoughts and feelings about the subject.

The Super Dog Zam Grief Healing Books were created to offer families with grieving children a self-help tool that could be used at home to help young hearts and minds through the difficult grieving process. By using these books, adult friends and family of grieving children have an opportunity to take responsibility and action towards healing, rather than becoming frustrated by the lack of information and support so often encountered by families facing grief.

Super Dog Zam Grief Healing Books are part of an ambitious initiative by the Grief Heroes Foundation to become a lifeline in grief and close the gap of loneliness for children, teenagers, and their families. The foundation aims to reduce the stigma often associated with discussing death and grief in conjunction with schools and hospitals through educational programs and donations.
