My life was boring, so I decided to shake it up a bit.
With my life at the ranch changing by the minute, and not for the better, it seemed I would never find any excitement to fill my days.
They say to be careful what you wish for, and I learned that the hard way.
Walking in on a stranger trying on my teal coat, only to find out we slept together, was a shocker.
I didn’t remember a single second of how we met or what happened after.
Neither did he.
But apparently, everyone in town knew our business.
And the secret we were carrying around.
But before I got a chance to tell my new man any of this, things took a strange turn.
Bullets flying, men attacking every hour of the day, and neither of us had any idea why.
And that was just the bad stuff.
There was an undeniable chemistry between us, and keeping our hands to ourselves turned out to be harder than I thought.
But the infuriating man was insistent on keeping me safe.
And the whole time, all I really wanted to say was Shut Up and Kiss Me.

    






Hard Rock Bottom of Your Heart ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review – “Some of her best writing…Holy cow, this book! I was immediately immersed in Murky Falls! I could not put this book down. Im excited to read the rest of the series!”

Real Good Man ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review from C. Luna – “Real Good Man by Giulia Lagomarsino is the kind of small-town romance that sneaks past your defenses with humor, heart, and a slow-burn love you didn’t see coming—but end up rooting for with your whole chest.”

How Forever Feels ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazon Review – “This author never fails to entertain. Her characters come to life. You live their emotions. Every. Book is it’s own adventure. Next book please!”


I’m a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, “No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book.” I didn’t think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn’t already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven’t been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

Lucy is the only woman I love. The only heart I cherish. But she can never be mine.

Life is danger, and life is pain. I learned that lesson at twelve years of age when my father and sister perished in flames. Lucy and I were the only survivors, she an abandoned little girl with pain in her eyes, tears on her cheeks, and steel in her heart.
I couldn’t lose her, so I lied about who we were, without knowing the terrible price we’d pay. Lucy and I became Barones, children of one of the wealthiest and most sinister families in Malus. I love Lucy more than anyone in the world, but I led her unwittingly into danger.
Our new family treads a dark and violent path, strewn with bullets and blood. Our true identity is a deadly secret. To protect my beautiful Lucy, I must walk the same path as our parents. To save her from a violent fate, I must arrange her marriage to someone else.

Cover Reveal ~ Birdsong Trilogy ~ by ~ Nina Lane

Series: Birdsong Trilogy
Author: Nina Lane
Genre: Contemporary Forbidden Romance
Tropes: Age Gap, Teacher/Student
Father’s Best Friend
Cover Design: Najla Qamber
SPARROW & HAWKE

He shouldn’t touch her.

Nell Fairchild knows how to survive. How to stay quiet, stay invisible, keep the worst parts of herself hidden. She’s good at it.
She’s not good at Darius Hawke.
Her father’s oldest friend. A war photographer with a dangerous past, a talent for disappearing, and eyes that see far too much.
Darius knows better than to want Nell. She’s too young, too vulnerable, and completely off-limits. He’s spent a lifetime navigating war zones, captivity, and the darkest corners of human nature. The last thing he should do is drag his best friend’s daughter into his shadows.
But some lines were made to be crossed.
And when Darius takes a temporary teaching job at Nell’s high school, staying away isn’t an option. She’s everywhere — too close, too tempting, too determined to draw him out of the darkness. And the more he resists, the hotter the tension between them burns.
If they give in, there’s no coming back.
*****
Sparrow & Hawke is a slow-burn, high-heat romance filled with forbidden desire, forced proximity, and a love so wrong it might ruin them both.

FEATHER & FLAME

He walked away to save her. From himself.

Four years ago, Darius Hawke left his mark on Nell Fairchild — and she’s never been the same. He didn’t just change her. He ruined her for anything safer, anything lesser, anything that doesn’t burn.
Then he decided she deserves better than what he is.
She hasn’t forgiven him.
Now Darius is back, and one look is all it takes to bring everything roaring to life again.
He still wants her. He never stopped.
When the violence of Darius’s past comes for them both, the heat between them goes from impossible to incendiary. But the most terrifying thing isn’t the danger closing in.
It’s what they’ll destroy to stay together.
*****
Feather & Flame is a scorching second-chance romance of both reckoning and desire between two people who are finally out of reasons to stop.
Note: This is the second book in the Birdsong trilogy, to be read after Sparrow & Hawke (Book 1).

WISHES & WINGS

Everyone is telling Nell that Darius Hawke is dead.

Everyone is lying.
She knows it the way she knows her own heartbeat. His absence doesn’t feel like a loss. It feels like a locked door.
Nell knows how to open locked doors.
What she finds on the other side is worse than a disappearance. Darius has been keeping secrets — about his past, his choices, the life he kept carefully separate from everything they built together. The man she finds may not be the man she thought she knew.
She still wants him back. She can’t reason her way out of that.
To reach him, she’ll have to trust a man who frightens her in ways Darius never did. Wade into darkness she can’t walk back from. And decide, when the truth finally surfaces, what she’s willing to forgive.
Some loves are worth setting the world on fire.
*****
Wishes & Wings is the explosive conclusion to the Birdsong Trilogy — a gripping, obsessive romance of danger, devotion, and a love tested until there’s nothing left but the truth.
Note: This is the final book in the Birdsong trilogy, to be read after Sparrow & Hawke (Book 1) and Feather & Flame (Book 2).

Cade

When it comes to women, keeping things casual is my forte. What can I say, I like to live life to its fullest. Then I spot the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen at The Tipsy Lizard, and I know I need to get to know her. Like a moth to a flame, I’m drawn. The only issue is, she’s dating someone else.
So, the only choice I have is to give Oaklee my number and tell her to use it when she’s single.
To my surprise, that phone call came sooner than I expected. She’s just getting out of a relationship and isn’t looking for anything serious, which is right up my alley. Spending time with her isn’t a hardship, and sending little gifts to her office to say hello is a lot more fun than I would have imagined.
The problem is, I’m not sure I can keep her safely in the friend zone much longer.
Oaklee
Relocating to a small town was exactly what I needed. However, from the moment I arrived in Cooper Town, everything seemed to snowball. The jerk I was dating decided to cheat, leaving me in a new place with a new job and a support system of one to lean on.
Meeting Cade at a bar turned out to be more than just a casual happenstance.
Being around him is easy. He’s gorgeous, charismatic, fun, and always sends me little things to let me know he’s thinking of me. When I have to start working beside my ex, Cade kicks it into overdrive, showing me exactly how easy it could be to fall for a guy like him. Too bad he’s not looking for forever. Cade only wants right now.
Suddenly, my easiest hello might be my hardest goodbye.

When a vicious assassin is banished from the only life he’s ever known, he starts over only to be tempted by the goddaughter he hasn’t seen in almost twenty years.

Hades
Vindictive, malicious, some would even say sadistic…
I couldn’t argue with any of those assessments. We are who we are. I’m a vengeful assassin who will stop at nothing to make those who wronged me pay. And I’m thirsty for revenge.
Eighteen years ago, I took the fall for a man who was like a brother to me. I even vowed to protect his daughter by becoming her godfather— and then he betrayed me.
Two decades later, his daughter, now a stunning woman, strolls into my life, having no idea who I am or what I’m capable of. Capri takes an unhealthy interest in me, the older and dangerous man, and I don’t do anything to discourage her. I welcome her obsession because it suits me.
When her infatuation with me grows stronger, I prove just how vindictive, malicious, and sadistic I really am. Is she the opportunity I need to enact my revenge against her father or is she the reason I finally let this vendetta go?

Foster
I learned early how to survive on my own. Keep my head down and my past locked away.
My childhood taught me that nothing lasts and no one chooses you forever. So I built a life free from love—and pain.
Football gave me discipline. Success gave me distance. Silence kept me safe.
Then Eden walked into my house.
My new housekeeper. Someone meant to clean my messes and remain on the edges of my life.
Except she didn’t stay on the edges. She saw me—really saw me—and didn’t look away. Her laugh somehow turned my empty house into something that felt like a home.
With her, the walls I spent years building began to crack.
Loving her means risking everything. It means believing I’m worth choosing. She makes me want to stop hiding… and change the play.
Eden
I know what it’s like to grow up unwanted. To pack your life into boxes and pretend it doesn’t hurt when no one ever unpacks them for you.
Loneliness taught me independence and resilience, to build a family from the people who stay. I never expected more.
Then I met Foster.
He’s quiet and guarded, carrying the weight of a past he refuses to name.
Working for him was supposed to be simple—do my job, keep my head down, don’t cross lines.
But the more time we spend together, the more I see the man beneath the armor. The one he hides from the world.
We weren’t looking for love. Yet somewhere in the stolen moments, we chose each other.
And for the first time, I’m not just building a family—I’m finally home.

A new, sexy standalone novel from New York
Times
 Bestsellers, Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward…

 

The last thing I needed was a live-in bodyguard. And I
definitely didn’t want him. Six foot two, with broad shoulders that were
impossible to ignore and a talent for getting in my way, Wes Callahan was a
walking bad decision.

 

But when you’re the daughter of a notorious mob boss,
apparently your opinions stop mattering the moment your father ignites another
war. I’d spent my entire life trying to escape that crooked world—new name, new
city, newfound freedom. At least until I was suddenly shacked up with my new
bodyguard. 

 

Wes knew exactly how to push my buttons. He was also
infuriatingly protective. And smart. And funny. And thoughtful when he thought
I wasn’t paying attention.  Little by
little, the walls I’d built started to crack, and falling for the bodyguard
became the most dangerous thing I’ve ever done. Because if my father found out,
Wes wouldn’t just lose his job. He’d lose his life. 

 

Getting involved with him was reckless, yet I couldn’t
find a way to stop it, no matter how hard I tried.  But while I was busy losing my heart, the man
who took it was hiding a secret. 


And it turned out, the most dangerous man in my life wasn’t my father after all—it was the one who threatened to break my heart.

Falling for a man who’s forcing me to marry him makes me sound weak. And in our world, the last thing a woman wants is to feel weak.
Brielle

Kane Morgan was never supposed to be anything more than one reckless night.
Turns out, he’s the enemy, and he knew exactly who I was when he was making me forget my name—while screaming his.
Now, Kane wants more than just revenge on my family. He wants me as his wife.
After a lifetime of heartache, all I want is to marry for love.
But Kane’s ripping that dream away, forcing me into a marriage of revenge.
He’s cold, ruthless, and calculating, and yet he’s everything I can’t seem to resist.
Because when we’re alone, he shows me a different side of him.
I hate that he comforts me when my past creeps into my nightmares. That he believes in my dreams. And most of all, that every stolen moment with him feels like it could put my broken pieces back together.
I shouldn’t be falling for my new husband. He gives me everything I’ve ever wanted … except the one thing I long for—his heart.
