The third book in the Knights of the Boardroom triology picks up a few weeks after Olivia Daniels stows away on the Templar Enterprises Group’s jet hoping to escape the country before hell rains down around her. But that successful getaway comes at a price, including both new and old enemies, an older brother so overly protective he may be causing more harm than good, and two Doms who are convinced she’s their future. When Olivia Daniels discovers files on her computer implicating her in a plot to sell nuclear secrets she knows she’s being framed for treason…she just didn’t know who would want to destroy her reputation or why. And now that she’s healed (okay, almost healed if you want to split hairs) from a gunshot wound she received protecting her future sister-in-law, Olivia is ready to track down whoever is trying to ruin her. Security specialists Sawyer Hughes and James Mikels are trying to keep Olivia safe, but the brilliant beauty isn’t making their job any easier. Both men want her and they’ve known for years they’d eventually find a woman they wanted to spend the rest of their lives with, but they are determined Olivia needs to be fully recovered and SAFE before they make their move. Discovering the petite bundle of trouble is interested in their lifestyle tests the two sexual Dominant’s patience to the limit. Can they keep her safe long enough to convince her she is everything they’ve dreamed of? And can Olivia accept the fact she is worthy of everything they’re offering or will old demons undermine what could have been?

In book six of the Masters of the Prairie Winds Club: Cameron Barnes, owner and Dom of Dark Desires, enlists the help of his friends from Prairie Winds Club when his family becomes the focus of an unknown threat.

When Carl Phillips shows up as part of the security detail for Cam's wife and daughter, Cam is confronted with a past regret—one that has haunted him every day for the last twenty-five years. Carl Phillip has never turned down a mission, but he sure wishes he could. Instead, being a team member, he pulls on his professionalism and reins in his haunting past—at least until he is sitting in front of it. Then all bets are off. As the threat against Dr. Cecelia Barnes grows near, the men of Prairie Winds step in to help and do what they do best—locate, secure, and extinguish. Enter Dark Desires, where past regrets will either bring a Dom to his knees or forge a future where love, life, and family is worth every heartache felt.
