An utterly engrossing and thoroughly entertaining story.”—Booklist (starred review) Combining the propulsive narrative drive of The Firm with the psychological complexity of The Silent Patient, a gripping and original thriller about two professional women—colleagues at an international fashion conglomerate—who enter an elevator together . . . but only one is alive when they reach the ground floor. On a cold, misty Sunday night, two women are alone in the offices of fashion conglomerate Claudine de Martineau International. One is the company’s human resources director. Impeccably dressed and perfectly coiffed, she sits at her desk and stares somberly out the window. Down the hall, her colleague, one of the company’s lawyers, is buried under a pile of paperwork, frantically rushing to finish. Leaving at the same time, the two women, each preoccupied by her own thoughts, enter the elevator that will take them down from the 30th floor. When they arrive at the lobby, one of the women is dead. Was it murder or suicide? An incredibly original novel that turns the office thriller on its head, The Cage is a wild ride that begins with a bang and picks up speed as it races to its dramatic end.

Book excerpt: Tiberius Witches aren’t just a threat to the Brotherhood; they’re a threat to all shifters. So how the hell did I get mixed up with one? It’s a spell. It has to be. She’s a witch after all. They have the power to manipulate nature and all things in it, including animals - like me. They cast spells on defenseless creatures, controlling them into doing their bidding. They do so with no remorse, no regards for the lives they’re playing around with. Even the strongest shifters are powerless against the terrifying ability witches possess. They’re cruel, knobby-fingered, cackling malevolent beings that take what they want. Or so I thought, until I met Aspen. I tried resisting her but it’s impossible. She’s sweet like sugar, an alluring seductress and I’m quickly wrapped around her soft, delicate fingers. When it comes to Aspen, I lose all control. Which isn’t like me at all. So it must be a spell, right? One that I need to break free of. With Fang and Tobias lurking in the shadows, adding a witch into the mix was the last thing the Brotherhood needed. My only option- figure out how to keep my two worlds from colliding while I figure out what to do about Aspen. Aspen Some want to be feared, but I don’t. The last thing I want to do is hurt anyone. How do I get him to see that? I’ve been cursed with a gift that I’m proud of. I don’t know who I’d be without it and I wouldn’t want to be any other way. I love who I am even if some assume the worst from me. I thought Tiberius would be no different. That he’d run for the hills like the rest. But to my surprise - he came back. He gave me another chance, which never happens. I think he knows we’re great together, but the fact that I’m a witch still puts him off. He’s having trouble believing me when I say not all witches are bad. I don’t want him to be scared of me. I’m just going to have to show him that I only want to have fun with him and make him feel good. And I don’t need magic to do any of that. Tiberius is a full length standalone and the final installment in the Blood Brotherhood series. If you like sexy bear shifters who will do anything to protect their mates, strong heroines, motorcycle clubs, and a small town with plenty of heat, you’ll love this series!
