LOVERS LANE
After her sister is attacked and left clinging to life, Roxana
Lane vows revenge on the man responsible. But the closer she gets, the more
detective Nathan Scott watches her every move. With his piercing eyes that seem
to miss nothing, Roxy finds it harder and harder to hide her secrets… and stay
out of his arms.
A contradictory mix of strength and vulnerability, Roxy is a
conflict of interest that fascinates him on every level. But when the sexy
amateur sleuth uncovers Scandal’s dark underbelly, he must choose between the
woman he wants and the law he serves.
MEMORY LANE
The man who put Roxy Lane’s sister in a coma is still living his
wealthy, entitled life, hiding behind a veil of privilege and power.
The law can’t touch him. But Roxy isn’t the law, and he isn’t
aware she’s watching… waiting…. For it’s not due process she wants but
vengeance.
Detective Nathan Scott wants justice as much as Roxy, but with
no evidence to investigate and pressure from superiors to look in another
direction, the clock is ticking.
And it’s only a matter of time before the woman he’s come to
care for takes matters into her own hands.
DEAD END LANE
Despite Nate’s assurance that Brody Harrison is under
investigation for the assault on her sister, there is an unrelenting darkness
within her, demanding justice—swift, brutal justice.
But before Roxy can put her plan into motion, she stumbles upon
Scandal’s dangerous underbelly. Hunter becomes prey, and Roxy must decide which
is more important—vengeance… or her life.
Excerpt
“I requested one of his
specialties. He doesn’t make it often, so count yourself lucky.” She lifted one
foil-wrapped square. Once it made it to his hand, she continued, “Goat scrotum.
It grinds down into a great spread.”
He froze—one minute, a living, breathing person. The next, an ice
sculpture of terror.
Oh, the horror.
Laughter bubbled up her throat. His jaw practically unhinged from
the rest of his face, and his eyes, if they got any wider, they would swallow
his whole cranium. Taking pity, and hiding her snickers with the back of her
hand, Roxy said, “I’m joking.”
“Right. Ha-ha.” He let her shove the food into his hand, but only
stared at it for long beats. Hunger must have won out because he gingerly
unwrapped the sandwich—did he expect a goat to explode from it?—and lifted the
top slice of bread, eyeing the innocent deli meat underneath. “It’s turkey,” he
said on a relieved breath.
“Oh, shucks, and here I was so hopeful.” She took a bite, trying
not to laugh and spit her mouthful at the way he watched her chew. The big, bad
cop was afraid of goat balls, the ninny. “I take it you don’t like goat
scrotums?”
Despite the green cast to his skin, his scowl was darker than a
starless sky. “I don’t like any scrotums. That’s not a real… thing. Is it?”
“Well, goats do have them, as do men. But I prefer not to eat
those.” She probably shouldn’t get such a kick out of teasing him, but she
rather liked this flustered version of the buttoned-up detective. He was always
so confident and controlled around her. It would do him good to know how it
felt to be off balance.
About the Andris Bear
I blame my mother for my fascination with books. Growing up in
northern Indiana there wasn’t much to do and I’d often complained of my
boredom. My mom handed me a book and told me to shush. I’ve been obsessed ever
since. Though I spent most of my time in between the pages, fantasizing of
other worlds, I didn’t write my first book until I’d had three children—just in
time to have not a moment to myself. In an attempt to keep my sanity, I write.
My favorite stories contain strong heroes and heroines, fighting an attraction
stronger than both of them.
I live in eastern North Carolina with my hero and our three mini villains in chaotic bliss.
