So when Vivien is joined by a handsome  insurance agent eager to prevent the multi-million dollar claim from  being paid, they use any means necessary to track down the location of  the stolen paintings.

What they’re saying about it:

I totally loved it! defiantly not my usual type of read. I was a bit  skeptical at first but intrigued by the storyline. Leti Del Mar tells a  story that captures you and then doesn’t let go, I couldn’t put the  story down! Vivian is an amazing character who is so determined, witty,  hardheaded, but at the same time easily hurt. She blends well into the  world of art and security, and when she meets Walt/Nathan the book  couldn’t get any better!

Love takes him by surprise when he falls for Colby Williams, a woman unlike anyone he has ever been drawn to, a small town vet with a heart for animals and a fierce love for a teenage daughter she is also struggling to raise.

But Colby has a secret in her past, a secret she’s not sure her daughter will ever forgive her for. And as for Ian McKinley, he seems too good to be true. If she had learned anything from the one time she had thrown her heart fully into love, it was that it didn’t last.

Except Paige can’t help noticing that, for a city-boy, Tait seems unexpectedly at home on the land. And he does ask a lot of questions…

Originally released as an ‘Amazon Hot New Reads’ four-part series and described as ‘Fifty Shades of Royalty’, ‘Asteria’ is now available as a full-length (108,000 word) novel.

Lover. Slave. Princess.

UN translator Lucy Snow sneaks into an embassy party…and meets Prince Jagor, heir to the throne of Asteria. He’s mysterious, charming and supremely powerful, and the chance encounter turns into a steamy kiss in one of the embassy bedrooms.

Their initial tryst isn’t enough for the Prince: he offers her a job as his personal aide.  Not only is she now conducting a secret romance under the watchful eyes of his retinue: Lucy is only too aware that in the wealthy European kingdom of Asteria, women are ‘owned’ by their lovers.

As the couple battle to keep their love a secret, Jagor shows Lucy a submissive side to herself that leaves her breathless: but is she ready to accept the Prince’s collar and the life in Asteria that comes with it?  When their relationship becomes public, can she survive the glare of the spotlight?  And, as political unrest in Asteria threatens the entire royal family, exactly how far will she go for love?

What they’re saying:

“The worldly style of this author drew me in…the sophisticated story of sexual desire in an original setting kept me there.“

“Oh my I loved this book! I fell in love with Jagor & could totally see Asteria’s ways.”

“The prince in the title is seriously hot.”

It was supposed to be a game. The idle rich of galactic Society loved to invent useless little games to keep themselves      occupied–and the greatest was the Scavenger Hunt. Visit different worlds, pick up hard-to-get items that can’t simply be bought, and have a fine time. A clever way to pass empty moments.

Tyla deVrie and her twin brother, Bred, follow the family tradition of entering the Scavenger Hunt. But little do they      realize as they hop from planet to planet aboard Bred’s decadent space yacht that the Scavenger Hunt is far more than a game; it will irrevocably change their lives. That is, if it doesn’t end them first.

What they’re saying about it:

“Honestly, I could use every exclamatory word in the dictionary, and it wouldn’t be a good enough word to describe how excellent this novel is… This is one of the best science fiction novels I have ever read.”–Linell Jeppsen
