Unbearable

“The best relationships are the ones that make it through darkness. The ones where people look at one another and see hurt and say, you’re worth it.”

After attempting to drink away a broken heart, Raven Walker finds herself in the arms of the one man she never thought she’d have. The problem is he happens to be her childhood crush and her brother’s best friend. What she assumes will be just a one-night stand turns into so much more. He’s strong, confident, loyal, tattooed, and before she knows it, her head and heart are fighting a battle between staying within the boundaries or crossing a line she can never come back from.

“That’s how Tyler and I began. Secretive and undecided.”

Tyler Hemming isn’t looking for anything but whiskey when he walks into Murphy’s Bar. He certainly isn’t expecting to find his best friend’s little sister drinking away a cheating boyfriend. He’s not supposed to want her. It breaks all the rules. But what he finds is an escape. A no-strings attached distraction that allows him to forget and live in the moment. Everything is perfect until he’s confronted with life-changing news.

***This story is told in dual POV, has an HEA with no cliffhanger, and can be heard as a standalone. However, I recommend listening to Unsteady, as characters play recurring roles throughout.

Unbound

“Hurting makes you react in ways you shouldn’t. Makes you lie and use others until the pain’s gone and what you suddenly feel is nothing but loneliness. The way it should have been in the beginning.”

There’s one place Rawley Walker feels at home. On a stage, gripping a mic in a darkened bar. Desperate to distance himself from the temptation to use her, Rawley leaves town in hopes to forget his childhood girlfriend who broke his heart.

“They chant my name between songs, worshiping the lost soul in front of them, but not a single oblivious one actually knows Rawley Walker, the front man of Torque. Why would they want to? Want some heavy truth? I don’t know him either. Not anymore.”

For years Sophie Cunning regrets one night that changed everything between her and Rawley. She can’t take it back, as much as she wishes she could.

Just below the surface lies a truth she never wanted to admit and he won’t let her forget.

As she attempts to move on with her life her past and present collide and she’s forced to deal with a new reality, one neither of them can run from.
