A virgin, a convict, and a villain who is determined to destroy them both.
Imprisoned for a crime she didn't commit, Maggie Lionetti is doing everything she can to keep her head above water. Including using a friend's name and her car to make money. Too bad she crosses paths with someone who actually knows her friend...and knows she isn't who she's pretending to be.
Shawn Preacher Franklin isn't about to let someone cheat and steal from a Navy friend while she's deployed. So he and his friends confront Maggie, and find out she's simply a woman down on her luck. There's something about her, and her situation, that strikes a chord in him and he begins helping her get back on her feet.
One thing leads to another and before they know it, Maggie and Preacher are dating. It's an unusual match, the virgin and the convict, but it works. They work.
But not everyone who puts on a uniform for their country does so for the right reasons. Maggie's keeping a secret from her new boyfriend and his friends. A secret that could put her right back in prison and be deadly for Preacher and his fellow Navy SEALs. She has to find the courage to spill all her secrets...but that still might not be enough to save her.
**Protecting Maggie is the 4th book in the SEAL of Protection: Alliance Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
Leaving wasn't an option. She had to stay to protect everything, and everyone, she'd grown to love. Especially him.
Ryleigh Lodge has secrets. Her new friends, the men and women at The Refuge, already know that for months she lied about her name, her hacking skills, and how she got the job in the first place. But there's one last secret. One so explosive, it could cost her everything...her friends, her new home...the man she's been falling for since the day she arrived at The Refuge. Not that she hasn't already ruined any chance with Tiny. Fact is, she should have left a long time ago. Now Ry's brought evil to their door-and she's the only one who can stop it. Leaving is no longer an option.
Spencer Tiny Denny has trust issues. And no one can blame him; even if he hadn't seen his fair share of hell as a former Navy SEAL, the last time he loved a woman, he barely escaped the relationship with his heart intact-figuratively andliterally. He should've known the pull he felt toward Ryleigh was too good to be true. So the second he heard about her lies, he put her on lockdown, watching her like a hawk and treating her like the enemy...until he discovered her actions were borne of deep fear. Now Tiny's keeping her close for different reasons. Partly to keep her safe...and partly because his feelings for her have only grown stronger.
When the threat that's been hunting Ryleigh for ten long years finally makes a move, for the first time in her life, she's not fighting alone. Tiny's got her back, and with his love and support, she's ready to do battle...for their friends, their found family, and for The Refuge.
**Deserving Ryleigh is the 7th and final book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
One mistake almost led to her death...instead it led her to love.
Josie England couldn't even fathom being a prisoner of war-but that's what she's become. Not that she was in the military, and her country wasn't even currently at war, but she's been thrown into a cell in Iran all the same, beaten, forgotten. And now she's going to die. Of that she is certain. Until a real-life hero is thrown into the next cell.
Navy SEAL Nate Blink Davis can't believe he ended up on another mission that's gone sideways. At least this time no one has died-yet. He has no doubt his team will break him out, he just has to be patient, and strong enough to withstand his captors' seemingly endless rounds of torture. Then he realizes he isn't alone in the dark, dank prison...and he has an even greater reason to live.
Despite barely surviving herself, his cellmate makes a sacrifice for Blink that shifts his entire world. Leaving her behind is NOT an option. However, like the SEAL motto, The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday, Blink and Josie find out exactly how true that is when they get back to the real world...and realize their troubles are just starting.
**Protecting Josie is the 3rd book in the SEAL of Protection: Alliance Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
She's no stranger to dangerous situations, but she'll never make it out of this one alive without the help of her Navy SEAL.
Bo Safe Cyders was born to protect. He loves his job as a Navy SEAL and takes his oath to protect his country and the men on his team seriously. So when a woman literally stumbles into his arms at Aces Bar and Grill, begging for help, he doesn't hesitate to act.
Wren Defranco's online date went south quickly, and when she wakes up in a strange bed, in a room she doesn't recognize, she's certain she'll end up a statistic on some random crime show. Instead, she's somehow found not only one of the world's rare good guys, but someone she can rely on...and easily fall for.
When her job sends her to South Sudan, a country ravaged by civil unrest, Wren learns exactly how lucky she was to run into Bo that fateful night at Aces. She'll need every bit of survival intel he and his SEAL friends ingrained in her before the trip-and the hope of a rescue mission-if she stands any chance of lasting long enough to experience what it truly means to have real trust, a devoted family...and genuine love.

A fake-marriage, a lie, and a murderous brother somehow combine to give her the life she always wanted...if only she can live long enough.
Maisy Feldman has lived in a haze for years, coming out of it only recently to learn the brother she thought she knew was a man she no longer recognizes. Evil. A monster. And he's about to prove it again-by forcing her to marry a stranger. It's the only way she can gain access to her inheritance, and Jason wants that money. Badly. Badly enough to kidnap a man and force him to marry Maisy long enough to fulfill the stipulations attached to her parents' will. But Jason has no idea who he's kidnapped...and he certainly didn't count on Maisy falling in love with her handsome fake husband.
Jack Stone Wickett has woken up in a haze, utterly unable to recall anything about his life apart from his first name. Not even the pretty, timid woman he's told is his wife, or the shady, nasty man who calls himself his brother-in-law. Jack doesn't understand the dangerous undercurrents ever present in the house, the palpable tension between Maisy and Jason, the vague details they share about his life that don't seem right. In fact, the only thing that makes sense is Maisy herself. He may not remember his wife, but being in her arms is like coming home.
Until his memory returns...
With the help of his friends at The Refuge, Jack and Maisy flip the script on her dastardly brother, but it's by no means a happily ever after. Jack can't just forget Maisy's part in his kidnapping. And while he struggles to forgive her betrayal, Jason is still out there...willing to do whatever it takes to get his hands on Maisy's millions.
**Deserving Maisy is the 6th book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
She never expected a marriage of convenience to give her everything she ever wanted...love, family, happiness. But a threat from her past could change everything.
When Addison Wentz agreed to a marriage of convenience, she thought it was a reasonable, rational decision. After all, her new husband was already a friend of sorts. He's also kind, respectful-and a badass Navy SEAL with excellent health insurance, which she desperately needs for her 12-year-old daughter, Ellory. In exchange for coverage, she'll help Ricky foster three small children from the Ukraine. But just a month into their arrangement, Addison also discovers that Ricky's sweet, supportive, a wonderful father to all four kids...and the sexiest man she's ever met. Suddenly, she's in danger of doing the one thing not allowed in her situation: falling in love with her husband.
Ricardo MacGyver Douglas thought his fake marriage was a win-win. Addison got healthcare for her daughter, and he got a mother for the three children he hopes to adopt. Never in a million years did think he'd be lucky enough to choose the one woman who's actually perfect for him in every way. Addison's an amazing mother, a savvy businesswoman, a supportive Navy wife...and she turns him on with a single glance in his direction. The ink's barely dry on their marriage license before there's no longer anything fake about his feelings for his new wife. But how to convince her that he wants to change their arrangement into something very real?
Addy and MacGyver are barely beginning to explore what could be, when her past rears its ugly head, bringing a little more chaos into their lives...and attempting to break up their newfound family for good.
**Protecting Addison is the 5th book in the SEAL of Protection: Alliance Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

She needed to win him at the bachelor auction to save her friend...but she didn't plan on falling in love.
Cora Rooney desperately needs to win the representative from The Refuge at the veterans' charity auction...it's literally a matter of life or death. Of course, as is so often the case for the ex-orphan, nothing goes according to plan, and Cora loses her bid. Yet, she still finds herself in a diner with Bryson Clark, telling him about her best friend, who she suspects has been kidnapped and held against her will. After exhausting all other options, Cora's convinced Pipe and his former military friends are her last chance to rescue Lara.
Bryson Pipe Clark had no desire to participate in a bachelor auction. Hell, most women run in the other direction when they see him coming. Why in the world would anyone spend good money for a night in his company? Still, he lets himself be talked into supporting a good cause, and as it turns out, the auction is the start of a mystery he's now determined to unravel. Mostly because of the woman he's strangely attracted to from her very first bid.
Finding Lara Osler is the easy part. Determining if she fled DC with her boyfriend of her own free will-and breaking her out of his estate if she didn't-isn't quite so cut and dried. Along the way, Pipe finds there's much more to Cora than meets the eye...kind of like him.
Falling in love wasn't part of the plan, but Pipe's not going to let anyone or anything get in his way of making Cora his own and rescuing her friend...not even a serial killer hiding in the wings, waiting to strike.
**Deserving Cora is the 4th book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

She never expected to fall for a client, but now that she has, she needs him more than ever.
Years of adversity have molded Henley McClure into the attentive, conscientious psychologist she is today. She lives for her daughter, Jasna, and her work at The Refuge, an exclusive retreat for victims of PTSD. Her life is fulfilling...if a little lonely. But the only man who's captured her interest, the most standoffish of the mountain retreat's seven owners, lives in self-imposed isolation. It will take a little vulnerability on her own part, a dead car battery, and the surprising help of her daughter to break through Finn's defenses.
His Coast Guard career ended in a tragedy that ground Finn Tonka Matlick's life to a halt. For years, his only solace has been the animals he tends to at The Refuge...and admiring Henley from afar. He had no plans to risk potential heartache ever again, until an incident at the retreat had him clinging to Henley like the broken man he is. The kind, patient therapist and her sweet, thoughtful daughter may be the only ones capable of putting him back together.
As Finn slowly heals, and he and Henley grow ever closer, someone is watching. Waiting. Planning. Evil in the making who ultimately wants to watch the world burn, one victim at a time. And they'll start by targeting one of the people Finn loves most.
**Deserving Henley is the 2nd book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
A brand new series by New York Times bestselling author, Susan Stoker
The Refuge is a place to heal. Where those who have experienced traumatic events can go to heal. It's run by seven former military men who've seen more than their fair share of the ugliness in the world.
Friend-zoned since childhood by the most amazing man she's ever known, that doesn't stop Alaska Stein from doing whatever's necessary-including lying to the military-to be by his side when Drake ends up in a German hospital after a mission gone wrong. The broken man in the bed is not the boy she once knew. Despite that, and despite years apart, when Drake turns his gaze to Alaska, he sees her. Looks beyond the plain-Jane exterior to his childhood friend beneath. He may never be anything more than a friend, but putting her needs aside to see him whole is a sacrifice she's willing to make.
Drake Brick Vandine walks away from the SEALs after his recovery, building a life around helping others struggling with PTSD. But he can't walk away from Alaska. She was there for him in his darkest moment and her spine of steel saw him through one of the biggest challenges of his career. And now, although she lives half a world away, she's still his anchor, his daily dose of support as he and several friends build The Refuge. A place of peace, a place of healing. But, for Drake, also a place of loneliness.
When the unthinkable befalls Alaska during a trip to Russia, it's Drake's turn to drop everything and race to her aid. Safely back at The Refuge, he just as quickly realizes what he's failed to see for two decades-his oldest, dearest friend is the love of his life.
A revelation that may be too little, too late. Because Drake's brought the enemy right to their door.
**Deserving Alaska is the 1st book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
