They always say that two wrongs don’t make a right…
Well, she was wrong for breaking into a house that didn’t belong to her; even if she and her daughter had nowhere else to go.
And, I was wrong for watching her on the surveillance camera as she moved through the house and climbed into bed.
So I offered her a job and a home.
Her smile…
Her curves…
Wrong has never felt so right.Now, I want to make the biggest impact yet…
I want to make her mine.

ARIEL & KAYSON
Some things in life were inevitable; death, taxes, and lying, whoremongering men.
One woman would never be enough for one man.
So I traded in men for a Harley.
Nothing beats that kind of power between my legs.
Then I blinked.
And he was there.Some things in life were inevitable; death, taxes, and badge bunnies willing to hop into my bed.
The only problem is I’m a one woman kind of man.
In my line of work, I’ve seen it all.
Nothing bothers me until I find a woman’s wrecked body.
When she blinked,
My world changed.Forever doesn’t come close to giving me enough of her.
Some people are unforgettable. Like, the first sheriff that pulled you over for speeding. The first person to kiss you senseless on the hood of a car. And, the first guy to make you orgasm. But, when all of those things are from the same man; let’s just say unforgettable doesn’t even come close.I wonder if he ever thinks about me and everything we ALMOST had.~~~Oh, he remembers and he’s prepared to put his money where his mouth is…
Almost is a second chance romance. Part of the Iron Orchids series but can be read as a stand-alone. It is romcom with a splash of drama.
Ready for a taste of Damon and Katy?
“But what did they do next?”
“What they promised. I came home, and the locks on the doors had been changed. They left a small duffle with some basic clothes, some toiletries, five hundred dollars, and the contact information for a shelter on the porch. Before I could pick the bag up and head back to my car, a man had put a lock on the wheel and asked for my keys. He said that my parents did not want me taking the car since it was in my father’s name and they paid the insurance. By six p.m. that night, my cell phone was no longer in service.”
“Didn’t you have any other family or friends?” Damon’s voice cracked.
“My only family was my grandmother, who was exactly like my mother. My friends, if you could call them that, their parents wouldn’t allow them to answer my calls. They were friends with my parents, birds of a feather and all that.” I turned at the sound of clicking as Damon flipped the knobs on the burners and turned the stove off.
“Come here.” He took the whisk from my hand and laid it on the counter before holding his arms out wide. When I didn’t move toward him, he came to me and cocooned me in his giant arms.
Except for Bee, I couldn’t remember ever being hugged. Damon Christakos gave good hug. “Are you sure you still want me working for you? I’m sort of a train wreck.”
“Yeah, I’m sure. I’m trying to think of the girl lion’s name in The Lion King, Gianna’s been watching it nonstop.”
“Nala?”
“That’s it. I’m going to call you Nala. You are a mother lion, not a train wreck.”
I lifted my head, and our eyes locked, causing a strange feeling to simmer and roll in my stomach as heat washed over my skin.
He lifted one hand and cupped my face as he stared into my eyes before lowering his lips to mine. Even if I wanted to, which I really, really didn’t, I wouldn’t have been able to. Everything about this man was mesmerizing.
“Damon, we can’t.”
“Because I’m your boss?”
Reality was slowly sinking in as he pulled away and I realized what had just happened and what I had risked. When this all crashed, because it would, everything did, I’d not just lose my job but I’d lose a friend. For the first time there was someone that I was opening up to, and I couldn’t jeopardize that, not over some overactive fucking hormones. “That’s part of the reason. The other part is that I’m not ready for a relationship. I’m not in any position—”
“It was a kiss, not a commitment.” Damon still had his hand cupping my face.
I was gearing up to go off about how I could prove with one eight-year-old little girl exactly how a kiss led to a lifelong commitment. Well, that was until the doorbell rang. Damon released his hold on me and let out a groan. Unable to speak or focus on anything because there was still a lingering tingle on my lips, I moved back to our dinner.
It didn’t matter how much I wanted his lips back on mine, I couldn’t do that again. We couldn’t do that again. He was my boss. I needed this job. If we did this and he found out about the model home, he would probably have me arrested. If that weren’t bad enough, the state would take my daughter away. Yes. The reasons not to do this far, far outweighed the reasons to do it.

Danielle is Southern born and raised. When not writing, she is riding on her Harley. Most days she can be found in jeans, t-shirt, and cowgirl boots. She has over twenty pairs. And don’t get her started on her kickass biker boots. She believes that Cinderella had it all figured out, “One shoe can change your life, provided those shoes look fucking fabulous.”
Danielle is proud of her Greek heritage and often uses her knowledge of the Greek culture and language in her books. She and her husband, that she lovingly calls Beta, travel a large portion of the year and devote every weekend to date nights; he claims to be a willing test pilot for all steamy scenes. He’s convinced her that she should write what she knows (and has tried, at least once).
Danielle’s favorite heroes are known as Beta heroes, “Men that open the door for you during the day and throw you against them at night.”
Betas write love notes, some with sexual innuendos.
Betas send flowers, some with sexual innuendos.
If someone asks a Beta, How’s life?. He’ll reply, “She’s wonderful.”
Her sarcastic sense of humor comes out in every book; she is often her own entertainment. Her goal is to write books that make the reader laugh and fall in love without all of the emotional baggage that we face every day in our real lives.
And Friday, is her second favorite F word (if you hadn’t figured that out yet).
