At seventeen, Asher Valentine broke Harlow Hudson’s heart and never told her why.

Now they run Lux together, the most exclusive show club in Las Vegas. They built it from nothing. From the same broken street. From a bond neither of them has ever been willing to name.

Best friends. Business partners. The only constant in each other’s lives.

Until one dangerous night makes everything unravel.

Now Harlow is dealing with a threat inside her club, a sister who keeps dragging danger back to her door, and the one man she has never been able to stop wanting. The one man who has always stood between her and the world. The one man who touches her like restraint is the only thing keeping him sane.

Asher has spent years denying himself the woman he would do anything to keep safe. But when Harlow is threatened, the control he has lived on starts to crack.

He already lost her once.

He is not doing it again.

And once he finally puts his hands on her, friendship is no longer enough. He wants all of her trust, all of her surrender, and every single thing she has spent years pretending she does not crave.

We Could Burn is a steamy friends to lovers, romance with slow-burn tension, a filthy protective MMC, explicit open-door content, found family, and a guaranteed HEA. It is book one in the Lux series and can be read as a standalone. 

At twenty-one, Lottie Nielson crawled out of a marriage that almost destroyed her.

She came to Las Vegas with a broken leg, a new name, and no intention of ever letting another man decide who she was allowed to be. Now she is the creative force behind Lux, the most exclusive show club in Las Vegas, and she is finally stepping back onto the stage in a show that belongs completely to her.

Until her lead dancer gets injured.

Until Lennox Ellington says yes.

Lennox is Lux’s head of security. Controlled. Watchful. Impossible to read. The kind of man who notices everything and reveals almost nothing. For years, he has kept Lottie at a careful distance, because she is bright where he is guarded, bold where he is restrained, and entirely too tempting for a man who survives by staying in control.

But Undertow was built around gravity.

And once Lottie puts Lennox at the center of the piece, distance stops being an option.

Every rehearsal is a slow collision. Every touch lasts too long. Every pause says too much. She pushes. He resists. She smiles like she knows exactly what she is doing. He looks at her like restraint is the only thing keeping him sane.

Then Lottie’s past comes back to Las Vegas wearing a badge.

Her ex-husband is closer than he should be. Caesar’s shadow is spreading through the city. Lux is under pressure from enemies who know exactly where to press. And Lennox is done pretending restraint is the same thing as control.

Because Lottie already saved herself once.

This time, Lennox intends to make sure no one ever makes her feel powerless again.

We Could Break is a steamy grumpy/sunshine romance with a protective security MMC, a bold dancer FMC, forced proximity, found family, slow-burn tension, emotional healing, explicit open-door content, external danger, and a guaranteed HEA. It is book two in the Lux series and can be read as a standalone.
