Acknowledgements

I want to thank my family and my friends who stood by me until this book was finally finished. Without your love and support I wouldn’t have been able to see this through and this book would still be an idea in my head. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

To my husband, without whom I wouldn’t know what it means to find true love. You are my sun and my moon, I’ll love you until the end of time. Thank you for supporting me through this dream of mine.

To my beautiful boy, you’ve inspired me to do great and to be great. I love you to the moon and back...and all the stars in the sky. I hope you grow up to experience moments like these, when you’re dreams come alive. Thank you for being so patient and as understanding as a five year old can be when mommy hears the voices talking.

To my mother, the woman who inspired me as a young girl to dream of this day. Thank you for opening me up to the world of romance and believing I’d always get here.

To Christie, what can I say? You’re unending love and support means more to me than you will ever know. God gave me a rare gift when he made you my sister and I will always be grateful. Thank you for being my rock and my sounding board.

To Mayra, the woman who came along and inspired me with her own words. There is a reason God put that little ginger in my life, now I know why. We were meant to be friends from the very start. Thank you for believing in my story, listening to me whine and for nudging me out of my shell.

To my betas, thank you for taking a chance on an unknown author and for giving me your honesty. I cannot express what your time meant to me. It meant a lot to me to hear the happiness my story brought you. Thank you for loving Hudson and Alice the way I do.

A big thank you to Dessure for taking me on and helping me launch this book. You are amazing and without you I’m sure I would’ve lost my mind!

Thank you to you the reader. I know what it means to take a chance on an unknown author. I hope you’ve enjoyed this book and the story I’ve told.

Until next time...

Mississippi Rivers and Kingston Cole’s story in
Lost Without You
 

Mississippi "Missy" Rivers

The day I laid eyes on King, I knew my life would never be the same. His sexy alpha-male attitude rocked me to the core. I ignored my feelings for him and shoved them away in to the darkness. Forcing myself to ignore the way my heart went wild any time our eyes connected. But no matter how hard I tried, as time passes, the more lost I felt without him.

Kingston "King" Cole

I'm a second generation, badass Navy SEAL and the moment I laid eyes on the sass talking, hip cocking, green eyed vixen, I knew I finally met my match. But the timing was off.

I’m a patient man but she’s about to learn how serious I am when I say I'm lost without her.

Come hell or high water, Queenie is about to find out she’s mine.

Davenport Harbor

by Mayra Statham

Anne Carter
As a little girl I dreamt of Prince Charming, I found out there was no such thing. On a rainy night, my nightmare of a Prince found me, but not my secret and I was able to run.
But what I ran into that night might be worse.
He’s far from being a fairy tale prince. Older, grouchy and sullen.
One look in his eyes and I know he wants us as far from him as possible. Yet he keeps us safe, giving us more than harbor, he gives us hope.
He might not be a Prince but he’s definitely the beastly King of his domain.
John Davenport
I’m a man who has avoided emotional entanglements longer than I care to remember. I should send them packing, but I can’t.
I’m not a good man. I’m ruthless. Uncaring. Calculating. 
I’m a man with mile long list of faults and redemption is not within my reach, not in this lifetime. Nowhere close to the man that deserves the beauty that they can bring into a man’s life.
I just can’t seem to let them go.
A rain storm might have brought them to me but I’m like a vine around them, needing a little bit of their light to thrive.
Can two frightened souls heal and find courage to love again and become a family? Or are the ghosts of the past stronger than they can manage? 
Will the growly king and beautiful damsel in distress get their own modern day happy ending? 
 

Little girl’s might dream of Prince Charming

but a woman deserves a KING that stands behind his QUEEN.

 

Wrong Side Girl

By Julia Goda

Cole has been Lizzy’s best friend from the moment he found her crying in the woods two weeks before her tenth birthday. Growing up without a father, Lizzy was raised by her alcoholic and drug-addicted mother. Being branded as the town whore's daughter, she had one bright spot in her dark world: Cole. He was the one constant in her life, the only person she trusted would never let her down. 
He’s her savior, her protector…and the secret love of her life. 
Now, sixteen years later, they both live successful lives in Boston. But while Lizzy still harbors hope that one day Cole will come around and see what’s right in front of his eyes, Cole enjoys his bachelor lifestyle with no intentions of slowing down. 
It’s time for Lizzy to move on. 
Cole has been in love with Lizzy since he can remember. Those gorgeous but sad green eyes of hers have held him captive since he was twelve years old. 
But she is too pure, too perfect, too innocent for him and his lustful and promiscuous thoughts. 
He has promised himself he won’t touch her. 
That is, until he doesn’t have a choice but to claim her as his or lose her forever. 
Is it possible for them to have what both their hearts desire or will the cruelty of life keep them apart?

A Reason to Live

By CP Smith

WARNING:
Author believes in soul mates and insta-love, proceed with caution if you're not a romantic at heart. 
Love's greatest cure is salvation of one’s soul. 
Shane Sherman has a problem. Well, two, actually. One has auburn hair and pale-green eyes, and the other? . . . Is a secret. One he doesn't want to talk about. But all that changes when Sage comes to town. 
Sage Sloan is being stalked. So she runs to Trails End and the bravest man her sister said she'd ever met. Sergeant Shane Sherman. 
Sparks fly, tempers flare, and bears misbehave as Shane and Sage find a way to coexist in Trails End. That is, until a killer comes to call. Then all bets are off. Shane isn't about to lose his saving grace. 
This is the third and final book in the Reason Series. I highly recommend you read books one and two before "A Reason To Live." 
Rated R for sexual content, language, and M for Maxine.
