I hate him. It’s mutual. And now we have to live together.
Erik Sorenson, the towering GU football superstar, got his Viking nickname because he’s blond, brutal, and ice cold.
After a sordid promise is broken, we spend two years silently ignoring each other. Even in the same room, there’s no conversation. No eye contact. Nada.
A serial killer is on a rampage. One day I see too much. And the killer sees me.
I’m forced to live with the Viking, and everyone expects me to follow his orders. Especially him. But considering what he wants from me… there’s no way.
The gorgeous Viking doesn't let people defy him. Too bad. I won’t be controlled.
Even under threat, our chemistry is white hot. It could burn until there's nothing left but ash.

Release Date: June 15, 2023

If the past nine months have taught me anything: what happens in Mason Creek doesn’t always stay in Mason Creek…
I’m back home in Lavender Falls.
Single.
Pregnant.
And craving ice cream around the clock thanks to a one-night stand with a sexy bartender I left back in Montana.
Two little pink lines turned my whole world upside down—and nothing in the pregnancy books prepared me for running into my unsuspecting “baby daddy” in the middle of town square.
Of course, he isn’t here for me. He couldn’t be. He never responded to my messages. No, Toby is in town filming a new television series about a single father. Talk about the universe having a funny sense of humor.
Now I just have to figure out if he’s ready to play the most important role of his real life: dad.

Saoirse Murphy.
Fierce, stubborn, strong.
She was the temptation I couldn’t give in to. I would’ve gone through hell for her. Even if it meant removing myself from her life to save her the heartache that comes from being with a Made Man.
