* Injured royal falcon? Check * Mistaken identity? Check * Death threats? Double Check When witch Hadlee Moreau volunteers to clean the local vet's office after hours, she's abducted and unconscious before she even has a chance to speak one word of a protection spell. Anders, king of the falcon shifters, loses his ability to fly during a night hunt and is gravely injured in the fall from the sky. His men search for a healer in a small, seaside town and find a female in an animal care center who they believe is a medical doctor. They abduct her to help Anders, taking her to their island home under the cover of darkness. When Hadlee wakes from the drugs, she knows two things: she's never been so pissed, and the gorgeous man on his death bed is her destined mate. It's not enough that she has to save Anders' life, but now she has to figure out who wants the falcon king dead and how she can save him...and herself.

I write for the readers who stay up past their bedtime, telling themselves "just one more chapter" long after the lights should be out. The ones who fall in love with fictional characters, escape into magical worlds, and crave protective heroes who would do anything for their women.

My love for paranormal romance started as a young mom reading ebooks in the middle of the night, drawn to the monsters who were more than villains?they were heroes. Inspired by shifters and fated mates, I set a goal in 2011 to publish my first book. Over 100 books later, I'm still creating the kind of stories I love to read.

Now, I spend my days dreaming up protective heroes, captivating heroines, and the happily ever afters they fight for, often while walking with my pup coworker and plotting my next book. I write for readers who love adventure, passion, and a touch of magic?because I'm still that girl under the covers, reading by flashlight, lost in another world.
