Ursula felt tears slip steadily down her cheeks but she made no attempt to brush them away. “I would be honoured to,” she whispered.

She sighed and felt a warm flush of love sweep through her with such stunning force that she melted against his chest as he drew her toward him. He held her so tightly that she could feel the steady beat of his heart against hers and knew, with absolute certainty that was where home was; where her heart belonged. Here, in this man’s arms.

“I love you, Ursula,” he murmured when he released her lips and placed several tiny kisses across her cheeks.

“I love you too, Trenton,” she whispered as she returned the tender affection. “Thank you.”

“Whatever for?” he asked. He leaned back to look down at her and placed a gentle kiss on the soft curves of her lips.

“Being my very own pot of gold at the end of my rainbow,” she replied, and drew him down for a very thorough kiss.

 

 

 

The End.

 

 

 

 

 

 

COMING SOON…..

 

 

When Lizzie is caught in a compromising position with one of the
ton
’s most eligible bachelors, she expects her brother to be less than gracious. What she doesn’t anticipate is finding herself cast out of the home and sent off to live with her aunt in the wilds of Derbyshire, in a place she has never heard of. Heart-broken, humiliated, and nearly destitute, she has to rely upon the grace and favour of her rather impish aunt, whose eccentricities are more than a challenge to live with. However, with no money to do return, she settles into her new life fully aware that she left a very large part of herself in London.

Ben tries his upmost to find the woman who captured something inside him he had long since forgotten ever existed. Unfortunately, the debauched ways of the man who claims himself her guardian prevents him from locating her again. That is, until a rather intriguing turn of events brings them together again.

Before either of them can make old acquaintances, and Ben can find out why she ran all the way to Derbyshire to get away from him, everyone’s lives are thrown into turmoil.

Can Lizzy unravel the web of lies her brother has woven around practically everybody he knows? Will the people who are threatening him also pose a danger to Lizzie? Moreover, is Ben able to provide her with the protection she needs so they can have a future together?

One thing is for certain, Lizzie is ill prepared for the fate that awaits her, and needs her very own knight in shining armour if she is to have any kind of future worth living.

Is Ben’s love strong enough to withstand the very challenging tests a rather determined criminal element in London put before him? Or will Lizzie’s brother’s scheming, and London’s darkest secrets, tear them apart forever?

THE STAR ELITE ARE BACK……..

 

 

When a series of gruesome murders appear to be linked, the Star Elite are called into investigate. Luke, Jeremiah, Brandon, Cooper, Barnaby, Joseph, Kerrigan, Connor, Jacob and Marcus suddenly all find themselves faced with a complex web of mysteries that take them to all corners of England. As they unravel the series of secrets, lies and red-herrings, their work brings them many hidden dangers, unexpected desires, and several intriguing mysteries along the way.

Unfortunately, all the experience in the world doesn’t prepare them for the battles that lie ahead. Battles that take them from the back streets of the most deprived areas of the country to ballrooms, bedrooms, and straight into the lives of several rather intriguing women who aid, abet, and hinder their intentions in the sweetest of ways.

Can they ever identify the person behind the series of jewel thefts that have thrown London into chaos? Will the murderer of several high profile members of society ever be discovered? Or will the ruthless gang of pickpockets that stalk London remain at large forever?

As they unravel the complex network of thieves, liars, and charlatans to ensure that justice is served, the Star Elite find themselves battling to keep more than their women. With the integrity of the organisation under the spotlight, they have to call upon the experience of several familiar faces to help them, but will Fate, and London’s most notorious gangster stop them anyway?

Come and join the new generation of the Star Elite as they embark on another series of adventures; where each man could very well be Saved by Desire.
