Counsel

The death of her beloved father turns young Angelique Bain's world upside down. Then, an unexpected offer of a prestigious ballet scholarship brings new hope, and, years later, when she makes her debut in Europe, she meets a fellow dancer and experiences the heady excitement of first love. Lauded by the ballet world, with her career poised for take-off, her world implodes once again-destroyed by her benefactor, a man who harbors an unhealthy obsession for her. Angelique suffers one misfortune after another until dire circumstances lead her to a life of escorting and the involvement in a criminal case-one that brings her to the attention of the formidable lead prosecutor, Adam Thorne, and threatens to expose her shameful secret. Their meetings are explosive. He despises her, and she thinks he's insufferable, but, no matter how hard Angelique tries to fight against it, she can't deny Adam's devastating attraction or the emotions he stirs in her. Angel is a companion piece to 'Counsel'.

Adam Thorne continues to intimidate and infuriate Angelique. He despises her; and she thinks he's an insufferable ass, so no one is more surprised than Angelique when Adam pursues her. In a startling about-face, the prosecutor known for being ruthless and arrogant displays a new and surprising vulnerability in his attempts to win Angelique's affection. She's wary, afraid, given her recent past, to trust his motives or her judgment, but she hasn't accounted for Adam's determination to eliminate every obstacle in his way. Destiny is the sequel to Angel, a companion piece to Counsel and Justice.

Lost is a novella, a companion piece to Counsel, in which Adam relates the compelling story of his tragic last years with his biological mother, Eleanor, his first meeting with each member of his new family, Emma, Callum, and Caitlin Thorne. Happy and settled into his new life, Adam's world is upended once more with news of the man who abandoned him and Eleanor. Confused, angry, and bitter Adam struggles, not only with those emotions but also his awakening teenage body. The combination is explosive, often destructive, until he finds himself in a situation that forces him to deal with his frustrations, and, which, ultimately, sets him on the path to becoming the formidable prosecutor we meet in Counsel and Justice. Readers who loved the Counsel series will thoroughly enjoy this insight into Adam Thorne's life.
