If you’re in the mood for some fantasy, sexy angels, and demons, this is the story for you.

The journey of Grace Forrester and Ralph White began in THE INTERVIEW, with Grace searching for the dream job and Ralph interviewing for a new live-in submissive. The story is a slow burn from the start of their lives together and sets the background of the series to follow. This is where their journey continues… Grace Forrester Life is full of curveballs. I just wish they’d bypass me on the odd occasion. Throwing me a lifeline just to yank it back doesn’t count. I had my chance at turning around the ever-deepening mire of debt. I was sucked in… and I messed it up. What sane woman would agree to a certifiable proposal by a prospective employer on the day of the interview? Not this one. The threat of losing the house I inherited from my parents forced me to reconsider my options. Except… would the formidable Ralph White consider my counteroffer? Ralph White I’m not well-liked in the corporate world, not that I care. I worked hard to achieve success and became a self-made billionaire, something no one can take away from me. Except it leads to a lonely life, one I counter by carefully selecting a new live-in submissive every year. Grace Forrester ticks all the boxes, but she’s stubborn and spurned my offer. She’s the one I want, and I always get what I’m after. Besides, I have the power and money to bend her to my will. Amid a suspenseful backstory of money, power, and corruption, will this sassy woman give in to the pull of the natural submissive yearning to be set free? PLEASE NOTE: Although the blurb is in first person, the book is written in third person.

The aim of this book is to bring together multidisciplinary research in the field of green infrastructure design, construction and ecology. The main core of the volume is constituted by contributions dealing with green infrastructure, vegetation science, nature-based solutions and sustainable urban development. The green infrastructure and its ecosystem services, indeed, are gaining space in both political agendas and academic research. However, the attention is focused on the services that nature is giving for free to and for human health and survival. What if we start to see things from another perspective? Our actions shall converge for instance to turn man-made environment like cities from heterotrophic to autotrophic ecosystems. From landscape ecology to urban and building design, like bricks of a wall, from the small scale to the bigger landscape scale via ecological networks and corridors, we should start answering these questions: what are the services that are we offering to Nature? What are we improving? How to implement our actions?

The Decadent Sins Saga concludes with the riveting story of the young man Torin took under his wing. Now, twenty years later, he is the Mafioso to fear… They say I am the Devil’s Spawn. They aren’t wrong. They say I am evil incarnate. They aren’t wrong. I am Death. Brendan Caruso I was born as a Kent, but since my eighteenth birthday, one man taught me the true value of who I was and who I was meant to become… a man I now call Dad. Torin Caruso legally adopted me and changed my name on my nineteenth birthday. Today, I am the legal son and successor of the most feared Mafioso the country has ever known. Until me. Under Boss X’s tutelage, I became the best of the best Mafiosos out there. The word no isn’t in my vocabulary, and those who dare use it quickly learned the error of their ways. I’m fiercely protective of my Caruso family, so when Xia Silver came snooping at Decadent Sins under the premise of looking for a job, I smelled a rat. She was too refined, too articulate, and too beautiful to be as destitute as she claimed to be. Not that it stops me from allowing my testosterone to get the better of me. Instead of looking out for my father, I was too caught up expunging pent-up lust with the pretty redhead to take notice. Dad ended up behind bars because of my slackness. Now, I’m on the warpath. Xia Silver will pay for her deceit, and since her father is the Boss of the East Coast Mafia intending to oust the Caruso family, I know just how to get Torin out of jail and end their interference—killing two stones with one bird… I’m going to marry the twit. There will be no mercy. She will learn no one uses the Devil’s Spawn and walks away scot-free. PLEASE NOTE: Although the blurb is in 1st person, the book is written in 3rd person, dual POV.

Danton, Castle Sin, Book 8, is an edgy, fast-paced, dark BDSM suspense novel. A tale of opportunities, new beginnings, and revenge. Castle Sin Seven dungeons Seven Masters Seven times the kink. How do you come back from a black hole that sucked you under and like a maniac on the loose, consumed you? “Until you’re ready to release the woman inside you yearning to come out and play.” Danton Hill knew despair. He’d once sunk into the same mire that now threatened to devour his soul once more. He’d risen above it then … and he’d be damned if he didn’t do so again. He had to … It was time to act on the attraction he’d been fighting for too long, and in the process make right a wrong … if only he could remember what he’d done to the soft-spoken, yet fiery Vera Thorne while held in the claws of the darkness that had consumed him. Whatever it had been, he would make it up to her while exalting in the submissive he had yet to completely unlock within her. “No one is going to come out and play, do I make myself clear, Danton Hill?” Vera Thorne couldn’t forget that one night with the hulk of a man, and even though he’d scared the daylights out of her, she couldn't fight the chemistry between them when he arrived at her door. Once again, he set her passions alight with no more than a brooding look. Worse, his dominance toggled loose the natural submissive inside her that the one night with him had triggered … she, a revered surgeon, kneeling in front of a man … it was unheard of! Meanwhile, SPEONUS had crossed the line too many times to count and having been on the receiving end of their cruelty, the beast inside Danton raged free. His fury knew no bounds. It was kill or be killed, and this time, Danton had too much to live for to die. Then again, life—and death—were unpredictable … Editor’s Note: All the characters we have come to know and love—and hate (um, hello, no one loves the bad guys). All the heat and sexy debauchery we have come to crave. And that all too familiar bittersweet ascent to the final pinnacle that will bring us closer and closer to the end of this series. Danton does not disappoint and leaves you aching desperately for the final books while simultaneously wishing they won’t come so that Castle Sin and the Masters and their subs will never ever end. The series should be read in order for the best reader experience.
