Painted Daisies

"You make me forget to be anxious. You make me feel like I'm enough." "You're not just enough. You're everything." Nineteen-year-old never-been-kissed keyboardist Paisley Kim has gotten good at hiding things, including the panic attacks she experiences before she steps on stage with her high-profile band, The Painted Daisies. To her bandmates, she's still the baby, the one who needs protecting. But to troubled bad boy Jonas Riccoli, she's the hope for a future he never thought possible, and he's much more than a boy she befriends at the studio. But their long-awaited reunion and the ensuing sparks are destroyed when Paisley's sister is found murdered. When signs point to Jonas's past catching up with him, the heartbroken Paisley can't forgive him, leaving her no choice but to walk away from her first love. But he's not giving up without a second chance. So when Paisley braves her fears to bait a killer, Jonas is at her side. He'll keep her safe even if it means his own destruction.

He did it. She'll prove it. A fiery rock star and a ruthless businessman battle to expose each other's secrets. The only family the Painted Daisies singer and harpist Fiadh Kane has left in this world is her band. When their leader―her best friend who stood by her through the worst―is killed, she's determined to find who did it and make him pay. Fiadh is convinced the band's new label owner knows more about the murder than he's shared. She plans to reveal Asher's skeletons by any means possible, even if it means using the magnetic lure blooming between them in ways she never expected. Asher Riggs is paying penance for the sins of his youth. Raising his daughter and securing his company's future are his only priorities. He certainly won't be giving in to the wild temptress of a musician who lights a fire in his blood that's a convoluted mix of lust and fury. When a freak snowstorm forces Asher to take the brazen rock star to his home, the ice outside can't tame the heat that ignites…or the shadows that come lurking. If they can't find a way to trust each other with their secrets and their hearts, they'll only be left with misery when the blizzard passes. With an all-female rock band and the alpha heroes who steal their hearts, this fast-paced series might just leave you breathless. Each full-length novel has a different HEA couple and a completed suspense plot, but the series is best listened to from book one to keep track of the overarching murder mystery. Are you ready for it?

Forbidden is another word for having everything to lose. As the Vice President's daughter and his current assignment, Leya Singh is completely off-limits to Special Agent Holden Kent. He refuses to let his desire for the Painted Daisies singer and sitar player cost him the future he's worked his entire life to achieve. Not when his goal of working on the Presidential detail is finally within his grasp. Leya always believed great passion wasn't in the cards for her. But the way her body lights up around Holden has her questioning everything she thought was true, including the arranged marriage waiting for her. When a hate group targeting Leya's father sets its sights on her, the fear that she was the intended victim the night her bandmate was murdered blooms into reality. Determined to get answers and protect her, Holden is forced to take her into hiding, where his carefully guarded walls start to crumble. Having only one bed is still no excuse to touch her… until touching is their only choice. If he lets his focus slip, it'll be Leya who pays the price, and Holden refuses to be the reason her enemies find her.

She vowed never to forgive him… Once upon a time, Adria Rojas had it all―a budding romance, her music, and a whole family. Then, in one year, her bandmate was murdered, her sister vanished, and the man she trusted humiliated her beyond forgiveness. Now, the only way she keeps her head above water is by losing herself in her drums. One stupid mistake led to the nightmare Ronan Hawk has spent years trying to rectify. Just when he's given up on ever making things right with Adria, evidence of her sister's kidnapping falls in his lap, bringing him back into her life. She's determined to keep him out of her heart and her bed. Every spark reigniting between them makes Ronan a distraction Adria can't afford. Not if she intends to bring the group she believes responsible for killing her friend to justice and save her sister before it's too late. But Ronan isn't going anywhere. Not while Adria is in danger. Not until she gives him a second chance.

I pledge allegiance to her and only her. Singer and lead guitarist Nikki Rani will do whatever it takes to keep her mom and her band safe, even if it means keeping secrets about her friend's murder. She failed her loved ones once and won't be taken in again by a ridiculous story. There are no fairy tales in her future-especially not with a broody stranger who's more likely to offer heartache and pain than redemption. D'Angelo Castelli has been raised for a singular purpose―to protect the monarchy. He's dedicated two years to hunting the people trying to bring it down, and now he has mere days to retrieve the woman key to saving it all: Nikki Rani. As the clock ticks down, D'Angelo makes one last desperate move to save his country and reveal a murderer. He thought he was prepared for everything. He was ready to torture, steal, and kill to defend the world he believed in. What he wasn't prepared for was her. Royal Haze is the stunning conclusion to the Painted Daisies series.
