If You Deceive (The MacCarrick Brothers, Book 3)
Another vengeance-driven romance where a ruthless hero schemes against the daughter of his enemy—same morally-grey scheming, but historical and far more explicit.
Dark Desires after Dusk
Keeps the immortal courts, mercenary antiheroes, and reluctant attraction, though it trades fae political intrigue for outright steamy paranormal romance.
Anything but sweet
Delivers the same sparring antagonists forced together, but in a warm small-town contemporary setting with no crowns, curses, or bloodshed.
Truly sweet
Offers a prickly, guarded love interest slowly won over, though the burn is sweet and domestic rather than lethal court politics.
The ones we trust
Shares the forbidden attraction tangled in secrets and betrayal, but it's a grounded modern conspiracy story with grief at its core.
Legacy (The Sharing Knife #2)
Fantasy romance about a mortal outsider navigating a hostile magical people's politics—gentler, warmer, and centered on marriage rather than revenge.
