Here is the blurb for my next book, Redemption which is book 8 in The Protectors series. I'm hoping to release this book in late May 2017. ![]() My job is to save lives. But what if the one that needs saving is the one I was sent to take? At 33 years old, Phoenix Jones once had a stellar military career ahead of him. But when tragedy struck his family, he walked away from the path he’d chosen to be there for the one who needed him most. Except fate is a bitch and when she once again takes Phoenix’s future in the cruelest of ways, he must find a new path. When a former army buddy introduces him to Ronan Grisham, the leader of an underground vigilante group, Phoenix knows he’s found a new family and nothing and no one is going to take that from him again. So when Ronan asks him to shadow a young man who participated in a brutal crime against Ronan’s husband, Seth, when he was a child and appears to be targeting him again, Phoenix doesn’t even hesitate for a second. Even knowing what he must do if the young man proves to have gone back to his old ways. Because family is everything… I can’t come back from what I did. I’m not sure I even want to… An ugly childhood left Levi Deming with little to do but dream of a day when he’d be free of his tormenters so he could carve out a simple life for himself, preferably somewhere far away from the family who never let him forget he was less than human. But one terrible choice at the tender age of 16 changes everything… Wracked with guilt for the role he played during a home invasion gone horribly wrong, a now 24-year-old Levi is trying to piece together a life where he can maybe do a little bit of good. It won’t make up for the lives he helped take and it definitely won’t give back the future he stole from the young man whose agonized screams still haunt him night after night. If it were only about him, he’d walk into the nearest police station and happily tell them to lock him up and throw away the key. But it isn’t just about him anymore… I expected to find a hardened criminal. What I found was something else entirely… With Ronan’s orders to terminate young Levi if he so much as even jaywalks, Phoenix expects an easy job with one clear outcome. But when a violent encounter forces Phoenix to interact with Levi, he quickly realizes the case might not be as black and white as he thought. Instead of finding a criminal with no conscience, Phoenix discovers a young man battling impossible odds and near crippling guilt. When his feelings of disgust and anger begin to fade and turn into something else, the would-be hitman is forced to make a terrible decision between the family he needs and the young man more intent on seeking judgement rather than redemption.

I love all of your Protectors and Barretti books (MM only.) Since I'm hungry for more Barretti family, I will be purchasing Finding Hope. Are you going to write more about the Barrettis, or revisit Dom, Logan, Eli, Cade, and the other brothers.

Dom and the other Barrettis will continue to appear in the Protector books. I will probably write another book like my Christmas novella where I can catch up with all my guys in one place.

I found a new author and she is GREAT! After I read the first book, I then had to purchase all of them. I am now trolling the sites on a weekly basis to see when the next book is coming. Was excited to see "Late May"!!!!! My only problem is I read fast, so I have an enjoyable hour and then I start looking again.
