HONEY

It’s been seven years since I last laid eyes on Colton Hayes. To the small town of Gumtree Valley, he’s the bull riding homegrown celebrity. To me, he’s the boy who broke my heart and abandoned me to deal with a heartbreaking secret alone. Now he’s back. But it’s okay, because I have a new life, one with a kind-hearted cowboy who’s willing to give me the life I came so close to having. Except Colton’s return is showing the cracks in my relationship and the sparks which had once burnt bright between us have reignited with a passion I never thought imaginable…

 

COLTON

When I left my life in Gumtree Valley, I swore I’d never return. Yet here I am, seven years later, helping my brother on our family’s horse ranch after my dad’s accident. The bulls, the buckle bunnies, my name in lights, it was all enough to distract me from what I’d left behind. But now I’m back, watching her start the life she’d always wanted with my brother, I’m starting to wonder what the hell I was thinking to ever walk away from her. I’d been the one to break her heart, determined to live my dream. This time, it’s my heart getting broken when I discover the secret Honey has kept from me…

Forever Mine

They want her. He doesn't. But why?

Book 1 of The Forever Series

At the age of sixteen, Roxy Thorn never expected to find her soulmate while attending her first White Moon Ball. She didn't expect to get rejected either.

​

Two years later, rogue wolves are stalking her pack, Saltwater Woods, almost weekly. They're after something but no one knows what. It's decided that the youngest and less experienced pack members are to be evacuated, sent to hide out in other packs, only to return until it's safe. Roxy is sent to lie low at Moonlight Ridge pack, one of the most powerful packs of the werewolf community. There's a reason why they're so powerful, and it's thanks to its notoriously tough Alpha - Isaac Winters. Who Roxy is horrified to discover was the werewolf to reject her two years earlier.

​

After being crowned as the Alpha of Moonlight Ridge pack at the young age of sixteen, Isaac Winters has worked hard to continue the legacy of one of the most rivalled packs of the werewolf community. On the outside he's tough, ruthless; but inside carries heartache of the brutal memories of his parents' deaths. His decision to reject Roxy was to keep her safe, but her arrival is beginning to make him wonder if he'd done the right thing. Can he let go of his past to allow a future with Roxy?

​

With life-changing secrets being held and a new threat to the werewolf community, can Roxy and Isaac ever be together? Or will the secrets surrounding them pull them apart, forever?

Book 2 of The Forever Series

It's been fifteen months since a single decision changed Roxy and Isaac's lives, thwarting the future they'd dreamt of together.

​

While Isaac fights the curse of a blood wolf each day with the chance of finding a cure growing slimmer, Roxy has had to step up from her title as Luna to Alpha. With the stress of running such a powerful pack, and the fear of never finding a cure for the curse which is slowly killing her beloved, Roxy finds herself struggling. 

With their lives already complicated enough, a knock on the door proves to them once again that life is never fair. Secrets of Roxy's family bloodlines are revealed - secrets Isaac had known all along.

​

Meanwhile the two notorious fugitives of the werewolf realm, Levi and Abigail, are sighted after months of evasion. A hunt is decided by the Alpha committee, a hunt which Isaac is determined to join, fully well knowing the risks that come with the curse. 

 

While Roxy struggles with new revelations and finding her new place in the world, Isaac is determined to bring down the blood wolf he allowed to slip through his paws months ago. Even if it meant saying goodbye to Roxy one final time. Will Roxy decide to stay with her family, despite their differences, or return to Moonlight Ridge where Isaac's ghost will haunt her? Or when all seems lost, will they be saved by a sworn enemy?
