ISBN: 0821781286

Along the barren, rocky coast of Pentreath in Cornwall, a woman's battered body washes ashore, and the whispers begin: Nowhere is safe. For evil has come to Pentreath...and to the uneasy shadows of Trevisham House...

Fate has brought Jane Heatherington to work at Trevisham House. She knows what they say about the estate's brooding new master, Aidan Warrick: a man of mystery, a pirate, a smuggler, and worse. He may look like a fallen angel, but everything about him suggests he is in league with the devil himself...and Jane has seen nothing to suggest otherwise...

Cut off from family and friends, Jane's only companion is a man she dare not trust, who disappears into the night, whose secrets are many, and who looks at her with a hunger she both fears and desires. Now, as danger haunts the coast and a terrible retribution is unleashed, Jane wonders if she is falling for the dark prince of her dreams...or a heartless madman who preys on the innocent...

His Dark KissHidden Book Cover

Saint...Sinner...Or Cold Blooded Killer?

Release Date: November 2006

Publisher: Kensington Zebra
ISBN: 0821779672

Set high atop a hill, Manorbrier Castle is shrouded in darkness and savage rumors: No servant has ever survived for long...Stay away from the Round Tower...There's death there...And then there is the dark lord of the manor himself...a monster, they say, and a murderer...

Emma Parrish isn't easily frightened by hearsay. She's escaped a far worse fate in order to take a position ats governess at Manorbrier. Caring for Lord Craven's young son offers her a last chance to build a life for herself. She will not flee, even when she feels eyes watching her, hears strange, haunting laughter-not even when she is tempted by the alluring pull of Anthony Craven's seductive, dangerous beauty...

A whisper of evil crawls through the shadowy halls and locked rooms of the crumbling estate. At night, Emma sees a mysterious light coming from the Round Tower. She has been warned never to set foot inside it-just as she has been warned not to fall for Lord Craven's wicked charms. But some curiosities-and deepest desires-must be satisfied. And as Emma draws ever closer to a man she cannot resist or deny, she moves nearer to the terrifying truth of his darkest secrets...

Awards, Accolades, and Info...

His Dark Kiss was nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewers Choice Award for Best Historical Gothic 2006.

His Dark Kiss (originally titled Manorbier) was the first gothic I wrote, and the second book I sold. It was originally intended as a light, funny historical, but it kept trying to write itself as a dark, brooding gothic. Eventually, I just let it write itself the way it wanted.

Publisher: Kensington Zebra
ISBN: 0821779664

On the streets of Whitechapel, a man steps from the fog-shrouded shadows, looking for company. The women are always happy to take his coin-just before they take his knife...

Darcie Finch has come to the East London brothel as a last, desperate choice. Instead, the madam turns Darcie out into the harsh night with new hope-to seek employment from one who owes her a favor, Dr. Damien Cole-as well as a last warning: Have a care. Steer clear of his work and his secrets. He is a man to fear...

The Cole residence is a strange place, indeed. Servants disappear. Unsavory characters call at odd hours of the night. And Darcie has seen the handsome doctor leave his laboratory splattered with blood. Now, Damien has offered her the chance of a lifetime, using her skills as an artist to work beside him. Long hours together soon ignite an unexpected-and irresistible-passion. But the closer Darcie gets to Damien and his secrets, the more she wonders if he is a dedicated, charming healer...or a cold blooded killer...
