Genre: Second Chance/Contemporary/Over 40 Romance

We barely knew each other back then. What kind of chance do we have now?

Twenty years ago, I shared a magical, tragic kiss with my secret crush. Silver was every girl's dream--and I was a socially awkward rich girl. We lived on different sides of town and ran in totally different crowds. When we bumped into each other that fateful night, no words were spoken--our souls knew who we were to one another. But life rolled on and off to college we both went. Never to see each other again.

Until now.

When Silver steps back into my life unexpectedly, my world stops. His looks have only intensified over the years, and when he says my name "Gin," for the first time again... I melt. 

Is my dream coming to life for the second time?

Twisted Devotion

Title: Twisted Devotion

Series: Twisted Series #4

Author: Jessi Elliott

Genre: NA/Paranormal Urban Fantasy Romance

Release Date: April 21, 2020

Being responsible for the survival of someone you loathe really dwindles all hope for a fresh start. Kelsey Young is ready to leave Rockdale—and the darkest parts of her life—in the past. After barely escaping the massacre of her foster family and taking down the evil behind The Experiment, she wants nothing more than to relocate and start over.

That is, until the fae leaders offer a reward too good to refuse, derailing her plans in the process. Kelsey agrees to put her future on hold to protect an arrogant creature with far too much charisma for his—or her—own good.

While she’s no stranger to the rumors of Jackson Hawthorne, she is new to his charm. And soon, she finds it nearly impossible to resist—especially when he makes no effort to hide his blatant desire for her.

Tensions run high as Jackson’s well-being is threatened by angry fae and humans alike with a mission to destroy his business—and him.

But temptations run even higher after Kelsey swears to safeguard his life—even on the days she wants to kill him herself. And what about his heart—or hers? When they find common ground in new territory, lines blur, defenses crumble, and devotion begins to outweigh duty.
