High Stakes Series
They're all taking a gamble....
In the big city of Hidden Oak, the men of Pack Protection Agency find themselves caught in the web of the underworld. They work on the edge of the law but when they fall in love, all the lines of good and bad become blurred. They set out to protect the innocent but what if their own addictions put those innocent clients—and the women they love—at risk? Will they be able to protect their women and themselves from drowning in danger?
All In
​
Gideon Walsh
​
Protecting people is what I do. It is what I am good at. What I can’t protect is myself once I set sites on Gemma, the beautiful and slightly broken blackjack dealer who deals me a stunning smile with her quick wit. I am done for from the first hand—but she has a past that will come looking for her. Let them come looking because I am prepared to protect what is mine.
And Gemma Powers is all mine because I am all in with her.
​
Gemma Powers
​
I am good at what I do, even if I hate doing it. Dealing cards, taking someone’s money, putting up with being hit on every single hand is not my idea of a good time. I have no choice. Choices are for the rich and powerful—something I am not. The only time I feel powerful is when I am with Gideon—he makes me feel as if nothing can touch me, not even the past I know will come looking for me.
​
Will taking a gamble with Gideon pay off, or will my past make it a bust?
Aces High
King Croftman
Protecting people is what I do. If I am seen as a brute, as brooding monster, or intimidating, well, good. That just means I am doing my job. I am meant to scare people off. When Kaia Aces the hottest pop sensation on the planet starts getting threats from a stalker fan, my job takes on a whole new purpose.
​
Because Kaia may be a bit of a spoiled brat, but she has fast become my brat—and I will stop at nothing to protect her from any threat—even if that threat is me.
​
Kaia Aces
​
I love what I do, I love the fans, the glitter, the golden life—I don’t even mind having big, grumpy King follow me everywhere I go. In fact, before I know it, having him trailing me all over the glob becomes my favorite part of being sought after. When a stalker starts making me regret my fame, it is King who reminds me why I do what this, why I fell in love with this.
And before I know it, I find myself falling in love with him too—but can he put his guard down long enough to let me in?
Three Of A Kind
Enzo Rossi
​
Rough. That’s how I live.
Always on the edge, taking risks most wouldn’t dare. It’s a dangerous life, and I’ve learned the hard way to keep people out—too risky, too messy. Relationships? Never been part of the plan. Nights Club Club Sin with Tomas and Mateo, the only two men I trust, are all I need.
​
Until her.
Luna crashes into our world—voluptuous, vibrant, and utterly unignorable.
Luna Ritchie
​
Me? I’m a walking disaster.
If I’m not self-destructing, I’m dragging someone down with me. Losing my job, kicked out by my roommate, and cut off by my control-freak father? Just another Tuesday.
​When I hear about Club Sin, I think maybe—just maybe—I can find some peace in their rules. Some control in the chaos.
I was wrong.
Coming here wasn’t the end of my trouble. It was just the beginning. And I’m not sure I want it to stop.
Poker Face
Atlas Rossi
​
Gambling, women, and a good time—that’s about all I let myself care about. My job is dangerous, and when you live every day knowing it could be your last, you learn to take what you can get. I run with my best friends at Pack Protection, guarding everyone from corrupt politicians to pampered pop stars. I keep them safe, I keep my distance, and once the job’s done, I disappear into the night.
​
Until one charge turns my world upside down.
Amara is not some spoiled charge playing with the press—someone is after her.
​
Amara Parker
​
I didn’t ask for any of this. I was at the wrong place at the wrong time and I am paying a price. I am caught in the crosshairs of someone who wants me silenced, and my only lifeline is a man whose stare prickles my skin and whose presence I can’t escape. Atlas wants nothing to do with me—he makes that painfully clear—but I have no choice but to trust him with my life—until he does something I can’t forgive.
​
Let them come for me, because I suspect whatever they might do to me couldn’t be as bad as how Atlas as broken me in pieces.
Wild Card
Rumi Costa
​
Keep an eye on the package and your head on a swivel. That’s the basics of being a bodyguard. My current charge is the daughter the most powerful politician in the state. Which explains why she is such a spoiled, sassy mouthed headache. My mettle is tested by the headstrong woman who preens for the press by day but plays a showgirl by night.
I can’t do my job if I am distracted—and nothing has ever distracted me the way Rori does.
​
Rori Wilder
​
I am not used to being told what to do, least of all by the stoic, broad-shouldered bodyguard shadowing my every move. Rumi needs to loosen up a little and to be honest, I love pushing his buttons a little. Soon, pushing buttons becomes pushing boundaries when stolen glances, and fleeting touches ignite into something far more dangerous.
​
Someone wants to take my father down by getting to me—so Rumi has to keep me closer than he wants to—and that’s just fine by me.
