ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date July 18, 2024

In a blink of an eye life can be taken, just as it’s given.

Sabotage

Years ago, I gave up on finding a woman to fit my life. I had everything I needed. My daughter. My club. My bike. Life was good. Then it wasn’t. I came into this life, knowing what I was looking for, but I got lost. When I was able to I traveled the world. Then everything fell apart. My daughter needed me.

Now she’s happy and wants the same for me. But the problem is, there’s only one woman who catches my eye and she doesn’t need to put up with my demons when she’s got her own.

Or so I thought.

Thrust into a situation where it’s her and me, no one else around, we’re stuck together. Together we have to figure this out. If not both our lives are on the line.

REVIEW: SABOTAGE is the eighth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult TOXIC WARRIORS MC dark, erotic, MC, romance series. This is MC Chaplain Wesley aka Sabotage, and Ryann Branch’s story line. SABOTAGE can be read as a stand alone but for back story and cohesion, I recommend reading the series in order as there is an ongoing premise throughout.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from three first person perspectives (Sabotage, Ryann, Warrant) SABOTAGE follows two years after the rescue of Sabotage’s daughter Fawn, Peyton, Ryann and Nevaeh from human sexual traffickers, and in the ensuing time, Sabotage has kept his distance from the young woman that calls to his heart. Allowing Ryann to heal, Sabotage will find himself spiralling when our heroine is once again abducted with a price on her head. Ryann struggles with the distance Sabotage has placed between them but another rescue by the man with whom she is falling in love finds Sabotage claiming our heroine in body and heart but the past refuses to let go, and another target has been place on Ryann’s head. What ensues is the building relationship between Ryann and Sabotage, and the potential fall-out as the MC is unable to protect one of their own.

The world building continues to focus on the take of a human trafficking ring but no one is aware of the true identities, and in this, the four young women are the only people who know the faces of the men who meant them harm.

The relationship between Sabotage and Ryann is one of immediate attraction but Sabotage has kept his distance while allowing Ryann to heal but threats against the woman he loves push Sabotage to claim our heroine, once and for all. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative.

There is a large ensemble cast of energetic and anxious secondary and supporting characters as everyone is struggling with the reality of what has happened and why. Always one step behind, the Toxic Warriors MC find themselves facing the men want the return of what was taken.

SABOTAGE is a story of betrayal and vengeance, obsession and madness, acceptance and love. The character driven premise is dark, twisted and tragic; the romance is passionate; the characters are wounded, animated and trying to thrive.

MAVERICK
(Toxic Warriors MC 5)
by EC Land
Genre: adult, contemporary, erotic, MC romance

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 19, 2023

She was mine, and I let her go.

Maverick

The moment I saw her, I knew I was doomed.
Doomed to fall, but that’s something I swore I’d never do. She’s been through more than a woman should. Lived through being sold to a man who hurt in ways that gives me nightmares.

No matter how much I want more, I can’t. Not with everything she’s been through. Not even with the temptation being so great. But she makes it hard. Especially when she reacts to my touch.

When secrets result in chaos, it’s my job to keep it together. However, can I keep it together and watch her walk away?

••••••••

REVIEW: MAVERICK is the fifth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult TOXIC WARRIORS erotic, MC romance series interconnected with the author’s Satan’s Keepers MC series. This is Sargent at Arms, Vance aka Maverick, and Nevaeh’s story line. MAVERICK can be read as a stand alone but for back story I recommend reading the series in order.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Maverick and Nevaeh) MAVERICK follows the building romance and relationship between Maverick and Nevaeh. Several years earlier our heroine was abducted on her eighteenth birthday, and along with several other women were used and abused until they were rescued by the Toxic Warriors MC. For two years Nevaeh has lived and worked with the other woman, watching as each slowly succumbed to love. Since her rescue Nevaeh has watched from afar as Maverick became her guardian and security until his latest assignment finds Nevaeh going along for the ride. A business deal is about to reveal an unlikely connection to family and a past Nevaeh is hoping to forget. What ensues is the building relationship between Nevaeh and Maverick, and the potential fall-out as the past is determined to take back what doesn’t belong.

The world building continues to focus on the investigation and whereabouts of a human trafficking organization, one of which, the Toxic Warriors MC has rescued many of the story line heroines but all is not well as the man in charge wants what he lost, including the woman with whom Maverick has fallen in love.

The relationship between Maverick and Nevaeh has been building throughout the series but Maverick has kept his distance in the face of Nevaeh’s abuse at the hands of her abductor. Having danced around one another for close to two years, Maverick is determined to claim Nevaeh as his own but a much needed push comes from an unlikely source. The $ex scenes are provocative and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful secondary and supporting characters. We are introduced to Nevaeh’s brothers Banshee, Druid and Keller; their parents Daghda and Brynne; actor Romeo Cohen; gym owners Jasper and Milo, and Gizmo; as well as the return of several members of the Toxic Warriors MC including Pirate, Sabotage and Wrath and their president Viking.

MAVERICK is a story of recovery and healing, betrayal and obsession, family and relationships, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is familiar but emotional and intriguing; the romance is seductive ; the characters are broken but struggling to heal. MAVERICK ends on a cliff hanger-you have been warned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date June 18, 2024

Once burned the pain is all that’s left.

Lynch

The past is finally come to the present and nothing else can stop the anger building inside me. She was supposed to be my match. The one person who was always mine and mine alone, but that was a lie.

Now she’s back in town and I didn’t even know it until it was too late. She’s going to get herself killed if I don’t do something about it first.

With the past always comes the demons and they seem to have targeted her. This is something I won’t allow. To protect her, I’ll keep her close. Make sure nothing happens to her. Keep the monsters away from her.

However, I have to do this, it won’t be easy. She’s still my match. The one woman meant for me, but that doesn’t mean I have anything to offer her. Nothing more than my protection.

Or does it?

••••••

REVIEW:LYNCH’S MATCH is the sixteenth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult INFERNO’S CLUTCH MC erotic, MC romance series. This is MC member Lynch Corbin and attorney Camilla’s story line. LYNCH’S MATCH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary .

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Lynch and Camilla) LYNCH’S MATCH follows the rebuilding relationship between our story line couple. Lynch Corbin fell in love with Camilla when she was only sixteen years old. Five years older, Lynch bided his time until Camilla turned eighteen, and then watched as the woman he loved left town to get her degree. Fast forward to present day, Lynch comes face to face with his past, the woman he will always love but a woman who believes she has been betrayed by our story line hero. There are people in the background desperate to keep our couple apart, and betrayal will come at the cost of lives and trust. As Camilla and Lynch battle to reclaim what was lost, their enemies take aim at everyone involved.

The world building follows the rebuilding romance; the perceived betrayal, acts of vengeance, and the greed of those people once trusted; the darkness that continues to follow in the wake of their relationship.

The relationship between Camilla and Lynch is one of second chances. Camilla believed Lynch betrayed their love with someone else, and Lynch had no idea as the reasons Camilla ghosted our hero years before. As their love for one another quickly rekindles, someone else is determined to destroy them both. The $ex scenes are passionate and seductive.

There is a large ensemble cast of energetic and familiar secondary and supporting characters, many of whom we have met in the previous story lines. Not everyone will survive.

LYNCH’S MATCH is a story of betrayal and vengeance , greed and obsession, secrets and lies, forgiveness and understanding, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is captivating and engaging; the romance is impassioned; the characters are determined, dynamic and compelling.

What happens when luck runs out and you’re left with nothing?
Lucky
I’ve always been a betting man, it’s why they call me Lucky. But lately, luck seems to be the least of my worries. Especially when it comes to my personal life. I swore to stay away, and I have, but she likes to push my buttons.

But then the pranks stop and she’s done. Something’s going on with her. We all can see she’s not the same.

Now, she’s gone home, or at least that’s what she says.
To get my lucky streak back, I’ll find out what the hell she’s up to, and when I do, I know it won’t be good.

•••••

REVIEW:LUCKY’S STREAK is the third instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult DEVIL’S RIOT MC: TENNESSEE erotic, MC, romance series. This is Lucky and Chelsea’s story line. LUCKY’S STREAK can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Lucky and Chelsea) LUCKY’S STREAK follows in the aftermath of the fallout of a one-night stand between Lucky and Chelsea. Our heroine Chelsea was humiliated by the man with whom she thought she had fallen in love but in retaliation against Lucky proved more tiresome when she did not get the results she wanted, and Chelsea prepared to move on with her life but Chelsea has a secret that is about to implode, a secret that has placed a target on her back. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Chelsea and Lucky, and the potential fall-out as Chelsea struggles to trust in the face of perceived betrayal including the man whom she loves.

The relationship between Chelsea and Lucky is acrimonious at best. A one-night stand ends with Lucky ghosting our heroine, and in the ensuing aftermath Chelsea struggles to forgive and forget but threats against our story line heroine force Lucky to claim Chelsea as his own, threats that come from within and outside the club. The $ex scenes are provocative and intense.

Once again, we are reintroduced to several members of the Devil’s Riot MC including but not exclusive to: Storm and Blow (Blow’s Smoke 1) Nine and Meadow (Nine’s Time), Sniper and Rain, Nerd and Cara, Calyx, Scorn, and the introduced of Lucky’s brother Luka. The requisite evil has many faces.

LUCKY’S STREAK is another story of betrayal and vengeance, jealousy and obsession, power and control, retribution and retaliation, forgiveness and love. The fast paced, character driven premise is dramatic, gritty and twisted; the romance is edgy; the characters are animated, determined and impassioned.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 18,2024

A light only shines bright for as long as it’s lit. The dark is always threatening to extinguish it.
Shiner
The only things that matter to me in this world are my boy and my club. I don’t need anything else. Don’t want it. I’m happy with the way my life is. At least, that’s what I thought, until she popped back into my life.
She vanished years ago, and I didn’t think I’d ever see her again. Now, she’s asking for help, and I want to turn her away, but she’s my son’s family, the only one who cared anything for him. Can I just walk away, or do I try to reignite the light that used to make her shine?

•••••

REVIEW: SHINER’S LIGHT is the fourth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult DEVIL’S RIOT MC : TENNESSEE dark, erotic, MC, romance series.

The requisite evil has many faces.

Only so much pain the mind can take before it succumbs to the beast within.

Beast

I watch her lose herself. Saw the pain she endured. No matter the help I wanted to give her, nothing will do. She’s lost to me. There’s no way she can take anymore. Nor does she need a man like me. A man who has his own demons to hold on to.

With her at the clubhouse, I need to get away, but when death comes to our door, my demons demand out. Secrets I’ve held onto are revealed and there’s only one who keeps me sane. Her. Will she be able to handle it all? Or am I left to my own demise?

My brothers can’t help. Not this time. I’m called Beast for a reason and now they all know why.

••••••

REVIEW: HOLDING BEAST is the seventh instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult SATAN’S KEEPERS MC dark, erotic, MC romance series. This is Jarrett aka ‘Beast’ and Bristol Hensley’s story line. HOLDING BEAST can be read as a stand alone but for back story and cohesion, I recommend reading the series in order.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Beast and Bristol), and a final chapter from Diablo, HOLDING BEAST follows in the wake of an attack on our story line heroine that left her for dead. Eight months earlier, Bristol worked at the MC owned Keeper’s Pub, and in the aftermath of the attack Beast kept his distance believing he was not worthy of our story line heroine. Months will pass before Beast returns, and in doing so, Beast will claim Bristol as his own but all is not well in either of their lives, and connections to family and the past refuse to let go. What ensues is the building relationship between our story line couple, and the potential fall-out as secrets and lies threaten to destroy what Bristol and Beast are struggling to rebuild.

The world building follows several paths including two powerful families, organized crime, European royalty, spousal abuse, betrayal and lies. As Bristol and Beast struggle to move their relationship forward, Bristol’s mother has plans for her daughter that do not include our story line hero.

The relationship between Bristol and Beast is acrimonious at best. Secrets and lies, miscommunication and misunderstandings threaten what little relationship there is. Months apart force Beast to acknowledge his need for our story line heroine but Bristol struggles with what happened and why. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, familiar and questionable secondary and supporting characters including the members of the Satan’s Keepers MC and their wives. We are introduced to extended family including Beast’s brother Everett; and Bristol’s brother Ben, their sister Giselle, and father Quinten Hensley. The requisite evil has many faces.

HOLDING BEAST is a story of betrayal and vengeance, greed and obsession, jealousy and money, family and relationships, friendships and love. The fast paced premise is dramatic and intense; the romance is seductive and provocative; the character are desperate, determined and dynamic.

REVIEW: FIGHTING ROSEMARY is the first instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult DEVIL’S RIOT MC: MISSISSIPPI erotic, MC romance series, and instalment fifteen in the author’s Devil’s Riot MC: Originals world. This is SAA Calvin ‘Kevlar’ Bell, and underground fighter Rosemary’s second chance story line. FIGHTING ROSEMARY can be read as a stand alone but for back story I recommend reading VIPER’S TOUCH.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from several first person perspectives including Kevlar and Rosemary FIGHTING ROSEMARY follows the search and rescue of our story line heroine. Rosemary is an underground fighter who has been missing for several months but Kevlar and the Devil’s Riot MC were unaware of Rosemary’s disappearance, until her best friend reveals something is wrong.The arrival of Rosemary’s brother Cobra, and father Big, members of the Reckless Souls MC set a plan into motion that will reveal a long standing betrayal by someone they know. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship between Rosemary and Kevlar, and the potential fall-out as Rosemary struggles with Kevlar’s intentions, and the pain of what happened and why.

The world building focuses on the rescue of Rosemary, and the second chance between our story line couple. Following a one-night stand together Kevlar ghosted our story line heroine, and in the ensuing time Kevlar never forgot the woman who had stolen her heart. Upon her rescue, Kevlar will claim Rosemary as his own, something our heroine refuses to accept.

The relationship between Rosemary and Kevlar is that of second chances. Rosemary’s has suffered at the hands of her captor, forced to fight to save her life but Rosemary has a secret, a secret that keeps her fighting for the lives of everyone else. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text

There is a large ensemble cast of energetic, lively and aggressive secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Devil’s Riot MC, Reckless Souls MC (Cobra and Big), and those hunting and using our story line heroine. We are reintroduced to Viper and Jade (Viper’s Touch), Vulture, Cyprus, and Aries. The requisite evil has many faces.

FIGHTING ROSEMARY is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, family and friendships, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is dramatic and intense; the romance is seductive; the characters are desperate and determined.

Intending to do one thing doesn’t always work out and you find yourself doing another.

Brake
Some things come to me easily, while others are much harder. I’ve come to terms with who I am. I’m a twin to my brother. A member of my club. A man who is different from others. I hold secrets no one knows, and I will do whatever it takes to keep them that way.

There’s more to me than anyone can understand, and I won’t have my brothers look at me differently.

I’m not surprised my secrets are brought to light the day she walks into my life again. Only can I stand judgment and the look in not just her eyes when I fight what’s between us.

Danger surrounds the club, and I made my intentions clear. I won’t let anyone else be pulled into the troubles.

REVIEW:  BRAKE’S INTENT is the fourteenth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult INFERNO’S CLUTCH MC dark, erotic, romance series. This is Brake aka Jax, Lawson and Faye O’Hara’s story line. BRAKE’S INTENT can be read as a stand alone but for back story and history, I recommend reading book thirteen LYRICA’S LASTING.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there will be triggers for more sensitive readers. BRAKE’S INTENT is a menage story line with MM /MFM/ MMF / MF sexual situations.

Told from three first person perspectives (Brake, Lawson and Faye) BRAKE’S INTENT follows in the wake of the abduction, torture, release and rescue of our story line heroine. Faye has gone missing, and her lovers Brake and Lawson are at the end of their proverbial ropes. Faye’s release comes with threats from her captors, captors that will face their own deserved demise. As Faye heals with the help of Lawson and Brake, Faye’s prior commitments come into question, commitments meant to unite two warring factions of the Irish mob. Meanwhile, Brake’s past continues to control his future and in an effort to protect the people he loves, Brake will sacrifice for the good of the whole. What ensues is the building relationship between Brake, Lawson and Faye, and the fall-out as Brake’s past destroys what’s left of our story line hero, and Faye’s family makes promises they cannot keep.

The relationship between Faye, Brake and Lawson is a menage relationship but Brake struggles with demons from the past. Believing himself unworthy, Brake is willing to walk away but Lawson and Faye are incomplete without their damaged lover. The $ex scenes are passionate and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including several members of the Inferno’s Clutch MC. The requisite evil has many faces, some of who we have met in previous instalments.

BRAKE’S INTENT is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, abuse and torture, obsession and madness, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is dark, gritty and dramatic; the romance is provocative and seductive; the characters are captivating yet broken.

Looks can be deceiving, even when you see past them.

Speed

The club’s been on edge with everything going on. We’ve been through enough, and I’m not about to let us suffer more.

I take on the woman who supposedly is the key to everything we’re dealing with. Yet I don’t want anything to do with her … or so I keep telling myself.

Her shyness gets to me each time I look at her. There’s something about her that screams ‘protect me’ and, for some reason, I want to be the person who protects her. But at what cost?

Life and death is a ride we’re all on, but it’s up to us whether we’re gonna take control. Am I ready for what’s to come and what I could end up losing?

•••••

REVIEW: SPEED’S RIDE is the fifteenth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult INFERNO’S CLUTCH MC dark, erotic, MC romance series. This is Speed aka Tyrese, and Lily’s story line. SPEED’S RIDE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise there WILL BE triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Speed and Lily) with a chapter each from Angelina and Lynch SPEED’S RIDE follows in the wake of the arrival of Lily at the Inferno’s Clutch MC. Weeks earlier it was discovered Lily was planted as a mole with the Devil’s Riot MC but Lily became a guardian and protector, and paid the price . Now, living in a safe house with the Inferno’s Clutch MC, Lily will discover she has been claimed by our story line hero, a claim meant to protect and defend the woman with whom Speed will fall in love but all is not well as Lily’s past is determined to take back his property, property that has been used and abused since the age of five. What ensues is the building relationship between Lily and Speed, and the potential fall-out when the MC is targeted for sins of the past.

The world building is detailed and complex. The reader is up close and personal with the backstories and histories of our leading couple. Having both suffered at the hands of the people in charge, it is Lily’s past that refuses to let go, a past that runs deep, and close to several members of the Inferno’s Clutch MC.

The relationship between Lily and Speed begins as an assignment in which Speed is assigned to ‘babysit’ our story line heroine. Lily is in recovery having suffered for protecting the youngest members of the Devil’s Riot MC. Speed sees something different in our story line heroine; a bit of a kindred spirit with dark demons buried deep but Speed also is desperate to claim Lily as his own, knowing she is the one to claim his heart. The $ex scenes are intimate and provocative .

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including several members and their ol’ladies from both the Inferno’s Clutch and Devil’s Riot MC: as well as attorneys, people in power and questionable acquaintances. The requisite evil has many faces.

SPEED’S RIDE is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, abuse and torture, murder and mayhem, acceptance and love.The fast paced premise is intriguing, heart breaking and emotional; the romance is seductive and intense; the characters are broken, determined and trying to heal.

Broken hearts heal with time, but it never forgets the pain.

Diego

I broke her heart years ago. But there’s a reason for it. One I try not to think about. I put the past behind me and I don’t look back. That is until I get a call from her asking for help.

Now I’m back and there’s unfinished business to settle. It becomes a game of push and pull, trust and betrayal.

Questions are asked and I refuse to answer. I’ll do what I came here for and hope to win her over or I might just have to sacrifice everything all over again . . . for her

••••••

REVIEW: INFLAMED TOUCH is the fifth instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult DE LUCA CRIME FAMILY dark, erotic, romance series. This is thirty-two year old, De Luca enforcer Diego Fernandez, and twenty-eight year old, grade school teacher Nadia Reed’s story line. INFLAMED TOUCH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order, or at the very least book four, FIERY AFFECTION for back story and cohesion.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Diego and Nadia) INFLAMED TOUCH focuses on the rebuilding romance and relationship between Diego and Nadia, and the protection of Nadia and her sixteen year old nephew Jay. Years earlier, Diego Fernandez left the small town of Enders Ridge, including the woman he once loved. His family in shambles, and the town dying a slow death, forced Diego to start anew but he never expected a call for help from our story line heroine. Nadia Reed’s young nephew is in trouble, and the trouble has landed at Nadia’s front door. Enders Ridge is overrun with gangs, underworld crime and corrupt politicians, and Nadia believes she is capable of saving the town, one troubled teen at a time. What ensues is the second chance relationship between Diego and Nadia, and the potential fall-out as the problems in Enders Ridge are bigger than anyone could have imagined.

The world building focuses on the corruption that is destroying Enders Ridge. From mobsters, to Mafia, to the Lowlanders and the El Cabeza Gang, Enders Ridge has become a safe haven for illegal activities, and our heroine is hoping to save everyone involved.

The relationship between Diego and Nadia is one of second chances. A perceived betrayal pulled our couple apart, but Diego could no longer remain in the town that was destroying his life, and Nadia refused to leave her family behind. Their reconnection is angry and intense but Diego is making no promises for a future together. Nadia is naïve and blind to the problems destroying Enders Ridge, and with it comes the determination to make everything right. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic, and intense.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful, powerful and struggling secondary and supporting characters . We are introduced to Nadia’s problematic nephew Jay; her ex boyfriend Riff; the local Irish mob, several members of numerous gang bangers, as well as the return of Theo and Nicolo. The requisite evil has many faces.

INFLAMED TOUCH is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, forgiveness and love, struggle and acceptance. The premise is gritty, edgy and tragic; the romance is provocative and impassioned; the characters are desperate, animated and dynamic. INFLAMED TOUCH ends on a happily ever after-for now. The overarching conflict has yet to be resolved.

(DeLuca Crime Family 3)
by EC Land
Genre: adult, contemporary, erotic, dark, crime, romance

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / Amazon.uk / Amazon.au /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 24, 2023

To get what I want, I’ll do whatever it takes.

Leo

Being head of the De Lucas is not all sunshine and rainbows. I must make decisions, some of them harder than others, and I don’t regret any of them. I learned a long time ago never to do that.

When the family name is threatened and what we claim is put at risk, I’ll take matters into my own hands. What I don’t expect is what comes next.

••••••

REVIEW: SIMMERING EMBRACE is the third instalment in EC Land’s contemporary, adult DELUCA CRIME FAMILY dark, erotic, Mafia romance series. This is head of the DeLuca Crime Family Leonardo DeLuca, and twenty-three year old, Mafia princess Scarlett Russo’s story line. SIMMERING EMBRACE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the story line premise, there may be triggers for more sensitive readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Leo and Scarlett) SIMMERING EMBRACE follows in the wake of threats against the DeLuca family. Leonardo DeLuca wants to take down the person in charge, but Scarlett Russo is an enigma; very little is known about the Mafia princess, and her whereabouts are currently unknown until a deep dive sends Leo to New York, to a small dive bar where he will come face to face with Scarlett Russo, a young woman who may or may not be connected to her criminal family. Scarlett has been targeted; a stalker threatening our heroine but Scarlett is unaware that the bigger danger may be the man she has let into her heart. A prisoner of Leonardo DeLuca, Scarlett must come to terms with the probability of her life forfeited for the family in exchange for power and control. What ensues is the acrimonious relationship between Leo and Scarlett, and the potential fall-out when Scarlett discovers she is a pawn, bait to be used for the greater gain.

The relationship between Leo and Scarlett is an enemies to lovers; a forced proximity; captive and captor, wherein our hero will fall for a woman who could break his heart. Scarlett Russo doesn’t trust anyone including every member of her extended family but Scarlett was about to face betrayal from the men her in life. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense.

The secondary and supporting characters include Theo ‘Frozen’ De Luca, and Blake Bandoni (Frozen Kiss), Christian Bandoni, and Mia De Luca (Heated Kiss), as well as assassin for hire Wilder, mob security Nicolo and Diego, as well as Scarlett’s brothers Jeremiah and Micah, and Eddie. The requisite evil has many faces.

SIMMERING EMBRACE is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, desperation and distance, acceptance and love. The premise is gritty and dramatic; the romance is provocative and intense; the characters are powerful, desperate and determined.

Avah Morgan is a little bit TSTL, and struggling to accept her life is in danger, is constantly placing herself in the direct line of fire. As Nicolo and his ‘associates’ begin to search for the truth, connections to her father’s past, the Lowlanders and the El Cabeza Gang, begin to form a pattern. What ensues is the quick and highly sexual relationship between Nicolo and Avah, and the potential fall-out as, once again, Avah refuses to accept she is the target of some powerful men.

There is a large ensemble cast of secondary and supporting characters including Theo and Blake (Frozen Kiss), Mia and Christian (Heated Caress) and Scarlett De Luca (Simmering Embrace), as well as Avah’s bosses Rhett, and Gregory. The requisite evil has many faces.

FIERY AFFECTION is a story of power and control, betrayal and vengeance, secrets and lies, obsession and madness, acceptance and love. The fast paced premise is gritty and intriguing; the romance is limited to $ex and protection; the characters are dangerous and dark.
