Hooked: Club Decadence Book 7, page 16
On a special assignment for MI6, agent Arturo Durand finds himself halfway across the world in the backyard of his old friend and colleague, Tony Rossi. Securing the assistance of the Rossi Team in his ongoing investigation is all Arturo intends to do, but when there's a little time to play, he can't resist the temptation to unwind at Club Decadence as well. And when fate intervenes to pair him with the lovely but unyielding Mari for an unexpected scene, their mutual attraction is impossible to ignore.
Slowly, one night at a time, Arturo begins to break down the walls Mari has built around her broken heart. But as the ongoing investigation leads him straight to Mari's dead husband, Arturo must choose between his lifetime of loyalty to the crown and the growing love he feels for his new prime suspect. Though he's certain Mari is innocent, he's quickly running out of time to prove it. And once she discovers his true identity, he won't be able to save her from the overwhelming feelings of betrayal. Can he find a way to protect her and prove to her that she was more than just his mission?
Publisher’s Note: Betrayed is Book 8 in the Club Decadence series. Formerly title French Kiss, it has been revised, re-edited, and recovered. All the books in the series are steamy, suspense-filled romances that contain power exchange, BDSM themes, and scenes with graphic violence, which may be disturbing to some.

THE BARBARIAN’S CAPTIVE
(Primarian Mates, Book 1)
https://books2read.com/u/ba1yqb
Light years from home, plant biologist Lt. Eva La Croix and her all-female exploration team land on a planet they believe is a perfect substitute for the dying Earth. They are set upon by huge alien hunters, and Eva is captured by the barbarian leader. Tossed over his shoulder, she is carried back to camp and claimed as his own.
Despite her fear, she is captivated by the gorgeous, dominant male with his long, gleaming black hair, smooth bronze skin, and glimmering golden eyes. Expecting her full compliance, he strips her and prepares her for an intimate and very thorough inspection. Horrified, Eva protests, but quickly learns defiance will be met with swift consequences, including a bare-bottom spanking until he proves to her who is in command.
Deemed compatible, she and her teammates are whisked away to the barbarians’ world where they are mated to these powerful men. While pampered and protected, the women are expected to submit to their males’ authority and bear their young. Will Eva learn to adapt to their unusual beliefs and old-fashioned ways? Can she sacrifice her independence and surrender to this dynamic, highly sexual alien male who has conquered her body, and perhaps her heart? Or when escape is imminent, will she flee with the others, never to see him again and feel the rampant desire that now surges through her blood for her compelling barbarian mate?
MARSHAL’S LAW
(Jackson Brothers series, Book 1 of 3)
https://books2read.com/u/bz1gpG
When Janelle Prescott is thrown from her car as it careens off a slippery road, she expects to wake up in a hospital. Instead, to her utter disbelief, she wakes up in a jail cell which looks like something from an old western movie set. It is there, hurt and alone, with no idea what happened or how she will get back home, that Janelle first meets Aaron Jackson. As she regains her wits, however, Janelle realizes that something is terribly amiss, and her worst fears are confirmed when she learns that Aaron is the marshal of Cheyenne County, Wyoming...and the year is 1878.
When an injured, apparently addle-headed woman falls into his lap, Aaron takes it upon himself to keep her safe and nurse her back to health. Truth be told, he is instantly attracted to her despite her sharp tongue and her bizarre story—a story which the evidence quickly forces him to accept as genuine. After Aaron takes her under his wing and into his family’s home, the two clash frequently, but Aaron is more than ready to lay down the law...even if that means a good, hard, bare-bottom spanking for this feisty brat from another era.
Having little choice, Janelle must learn how to live as a woman in the Old West, including submitting to the firm-handed marshal who, in spite of everything, seems to have laid claim to her heart.
