 A brand new series!

COMING SOON


Tainted Love

Tainted Love is the first book in my new mafia series, Dark Redemption; a planned 7 book series with launches on March 29th. 

It is currently available for pre-order on all major platforms and will also be available in Kobo Plus. 



Ciaran

An eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth.

In this world that’s always how it works. Without exception.

Sometimes it’s deliberate.

A way to provoke a response.

Set a trap.

Start a war…

What none of us can afford to do is to turn a blind eye.

To do so is to show weakness.

And in this world, that kind of weakness will get you annihilated.

That’s why I’m here, preparing to abduct the woman who’s stupid enough to want to tie herself to the scum they called the Viper, on her wedding day.

Retaliation.


Maricela

I feel like an inmate on death row waiting to be escorted to my doom, but marriage to Vito - the Viper - Rossi is a fate worse than death.

My father, the one who sold me into this nightmare, is present… somewhere, but I have to be escorted down the aisle by a body guard in case I try to make a run for it.

Well, they’re not wrong.

I stare at my reflection for the few precious moments of peace and freedom I have left. I’m not sure I know the woman who stares back at me. It’s my eyes that strike hardest.

Blank. Desolate. It’s like all the life has been sucked out of them.

The door opens and any last chance of escape has finally passed.

Except it’s not my bodyguard who enters the room, but a masked man with an Irish accent.

He doesn’t need to abduct me, I’ll go willingly.

This might have been my happily ever after… until he’s forced to give me back.



Please be aware: THERE MAY BE TRIGGERS!

 1 year since the release of

AQUARIUS



Betrayed. Stoic. Broken

Five years after the woman he loved stole his destiny, Carter Hayes finds her again in the most unlikely of places. And from the moment he lays eyes on Skye, it’s clear his hunger for her hasn’t waned a bit during their time apart.

Now they’re trapped, forced to relive those wild, passion-filled nights, as well as their darkest, most painful moments, while the guild they serve is taken hostage.

But a guild coup isn’t their only problem. Carter’s own family is working against him, and unless he can let go of the past, he’ll lose his rightful place in the Aquarius guild…

And a future he never knew he wanted.

What else does this mean? 

It means the entire Masters of the Zodiac, multi-author series is now complete and you can check out all twelve books here



And if you have a Kindle Unlimited account you can read them all for free.

The Lost Boys series

Before

Decades earlier, trouble stalked the tropical haven of the Florida Keys.

Dark shadows crawled beneath the sun and fun, and children went missing.

Then it all stopped.

Now, for better or worse, the lives of seven people are about to become intricately intertwined. The Lost Boys Kidnapper is back, and only they can stop him.

To do so, though, they'll need to piece back lives ripped apart by past events.

Find out what happened to them Before.


Read it for FREE on all major platforms!

Five Sinful Saviors 

A Deadly Mystery to Uncover The Lost.

Even bright sunshine has dark shadows...

Ever since my brother's disappearance, my world has been carefully designed to keep the darkness out.

When a serial killer from the Florida Keys' past returns, my simple little existence gets a lot more complicated...especially when five men haunted by their own dark pasts take a sudden interest in me.

Overnight, my life is torn apart, and I am thrown into the arms of these mysterious strangers for solace and protection, finding the paradise I've been hunting for with them.

Can we escape the shadows that chase us, though? Or will I be lost, too?

This suspenseful romance, inspired by the tale of Peter Pan and the Lost Boys, has a complete HFN ending and can be read as a standalone.

Six Dark Defenders

First there were Five. Now they are Six.

Beck

The sun has dawned on a new day and after a grim fight with a notorious serial child killer, the future looks bright.Even for me.

But not everything is as it seems. The man killed in that brutal struggle? He’s not the man I remember as my kidnapper.

Neve and her guys think they’ve finally found their happy ever after, but something sinister continues to lurk in the background, threatening to steal away the happiness they’ve discovered on the islands of the Florida Keys.

Forced into hiding with Neve, I find myself falling for her, and I know I can’t let that happen.

But convincing people to believe me has always been a problem, and it looks like that hasn’t changed.

Now I need to persuade them of the truth before the past comes back to finish what it started.

Perhaps then I can have my happy ever after, too.


Hating Them

They're my stepbrothers. My rivals. My enemies.

It’s hard to watch someone else live your dream.

When my best friend settles into her happy-ever-after, I’m determined to make my own dreams come true. Inheriting my father’s beach house gives me the space I need to make my desires a reality.

But love seems to be a bit more elusive for me.

Enter my stepbrothers.

I barely know them and ought to hate them. They think I owe them something when the simple truth is, I owe them nothing more than the terms of the will, which allows them to live under the same roof.

So here we are—roommates, enemies, and possibly more, as sparks between us ignite in the summer heat.

Those sparks, though, have the power to rage unchecked. Someone is trying to take away everything my father has given me, and it could be the men in my bed.

H8 is the thrilling spin-off to Five and Six.If you’re a sucker for dark and twisted fairytales, you won’t want to miss this mash-up of Cinderella and Snow White.

Author Spotlight - Kessily Lewel



Kessily Lewel, and her darker side Sadie Marks, are two halves of the same author. Between those two pen names, she has a total of nine published books now. All of them fall under the category of power-exchange romance. 

Kessily’s books tend more towards sexy romance with a side of domestic discipline, while Sadie has been sticking to sci-fi, with her race of Dominant aliens who are looking for a few good humans to call their own.

She has been in love with fantasy, sci-fi and horror since she was a child. She grew up reading Stephen King, Asimov, Robert Heinlein, and others, so it was only natural that one day she’d write her own worlds—though hers do seem to have a lot more sex and BDSM in them.

New Release

Sam loves her, but can he be the Daddy she needs?

Claiming His Brat 

Daddy Takes the Reins Book One




A rekindled romance. A second chance at love. The Daddy she needs.

When family tragedy brings Charlie back home to the ranch, she ends up face to face with the man she walked out on years before. Sam is just as hot and bossy as ever, but Charlie knows she made the right choice all those years ago and she's determined to stay away.

But when her father’s will throws the two of them together, it quickly becomes clear that their explosive chemistry can't be ignored.

Now he’s in charge whether she likes it or not, and it’s bringing back all those memories of what they had before. But if things are going to work it has to be different this time. She knows what she needs. She needs him to be her Daddy. The only question is… can he handle her?

Isn't this just the most scrumptious cover!? Releasing on 15th October, this is already available for pre-order so you can get your copy HERE!


And here's a sneak peek to tickle your tastebuds.



Excerpt

“Don’t take that tone with me Charlie girl, unless you want to go over my knee!” Sam snapped back.

Her mouth dropped open, but she couldn’t ignore the surge of arousal that rocketed through her, soaking her panties and making her nipples harden into points. “I…you…you can’t do that!” she blurted, taking several steps back as she said it, just in case he was planning to do exactly what he’d threatened.

He got to his feet and moved around the desk like he was stalking her. Somehow, he got between her and the door, and then he was backing her against the wall and bracing his hands on either side of her to trap her right where she was. “You want to bet on that, kid? I’ll do it right here. Pants down and everything, imagine someone walking in and seeing you like that,” he said in a low threatening growl.

Her eyes widened and her breath caught in her throat. A small pulsing had begun, centered low in her body and for a second, she was tempted to say, ‘yes please!’ but she couldn’t do that. “I didn’t give you permission to discipline me, Sam.” She hadn’t meant it to sound so cold, but the ice she was using to keep her emotions in check crept into her voice.

He stared at her and then slowly dropped his arms and took a step back. A shuttered look came over his face and all the passion vanished leaving a neutral expression she couldn’t decipher. He gestured towards the door. “Go on then. You know I’m not going to force anything on you. You want to be a brat and then say no, that’s on you. I’ve got work to do.”


And that's not all! 

If sci-fi is more your thing, then take a look at this. 

His Captured Prey

by

Sadie Marks

part of the Dark Galaxies Anthology

Do you like your romance a little on the dark side?

From space stations to star ships to distant planets, wherever humans go, romance follows. But it’s not always all hearts and flowers. Sometimes intergalactic love comes from much darker sources than the stars that light the way.

In this limited-edition collection of amazing new stories, New York Times, USA Today, and international bestselling authors bring you a whole new galaxy of dark science fiction romance.




Exiled from her colony for refusing to be part of their breeding program, Mara finds herself captured and claimed by Jahk, the first male who finds her in the wild. Despite her anger and frustration at being forced to obey the dominating Alpha male, she can’t help but feel the attraction between them.

She doesn’t want a mate, but she can’t fight biology and once she goes into heat neither of them will have a choice. In a desperate attempt to escape her own biological imperatives, she nearly loses her life. 

Now, Jahk is determined to keep her safe no matter what it takes, and he’ll begin by training her to obey.

Warning: 

This romance is on the dark side, with Dominance and scenes of punishment and discipline. If that’s not your cup of tea you probably won’t enjoy this book.


And there's more!

You can follow Kessily on your favourite media, but if you sign up to her Newsletter you can also get your hands on a FREE copy of 

Architect of his Desire
