Lucas Spaulding waited three years before he could claim his woman his mother brought into their privilaged home. She swore that she would never leave, now it looks like she needs to be reminded who she belongs to. she's on notice. Lucas is on the hunt and he doesn't intend to play fair.

In the Sedetian Empire a Dashenka male rules with absolute power. While the female is taught submission and obeisance. And humans are nothing more than slaves. It is within this society that half-breed Aria Skal is born and must learn to accept if she has any hope surviving.  But survival seems nearly impossible when she discovers that her Vadar has sold her to the highest bidder, the son of the Ruling Male.

Oren Di-Lor is a cruel and overbearing male who hates the very air Aria breathes. He is her newly acquired mate and the bane of her existence. 

Lila James knows that her friendship with seventeen year old Chase Almeida is extremely inappropriate, but she still isn't prepared when his older brother Jack decides to tell her just how inappropriate it actually is-- inadvertently igniting a fire that had been burning quietly inside of them for years.

*****Lila's Thunder has been removed for editing, refining and if all goes according to plan, publishing! I couldn't have finished it without all my readers leaving their words and thoughts--even if I didn't always like them--so THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. <3

"Sex isn't good unless it means something. It doesn't necessarily need to mean "love" and it doesn't necessarily need to happen in a relationship, but it does need to mean intimacy and connection...There exists a very fine line between being sexually liberated and being sexually used."

    ---Laura Sessions

       The Family is a close knit group...Some may even consider it a cult. Its members unsuspectingly dedicate their entire beings to being one. They live a life under constant surveillence to ensure that they follow procedure and never break away from the group. To do so is unheard of and the consequences that follow are never questioned.

     Blaise Kincaid is a man who has grown up seeing the same faces of The Family without knowing their true intent. The time has come for their major plan to be put into motion, and Blaise has finally entered the stage in his life where they can entrust it to him. Once he enters his father's business, he'll be thrown into the doings of the group. He'll start to see everyone he has known all his life in a dfferent life...Even hisself.

     A young woman will entice Blaise and bring a new element to his life. She has admired a figurehead of The Family for as long as she can remember. When she gets a call telling of her life's dream becoming reality to work side by side with him, her only thoughts are to fufill herself and give her family a stable life that is well deserved.

     When these two meet, they ask nothing more than the physical from each other. They hope to provide an aspect to life that neither Blaise or Niamh have ever felt. What it is, they don't know.

     Once they start to realize it, The Family will war with their feelings, determined to never let it rise to its full potential and interrupt their agenda.

Taught to see the worst in people so he lived life semi- emotionless, that is until he met her.

There is nothing like the love of a man for a woman, of a child for its parents. But it’s those that are willing to risk everything for this love that survives. Will a prince waiting to inherit the kingdom let himself fall for a peasant or will he marry someone he doesn’t love for the sake of his kingdom? “You can sacrifice and not love. But you cannot love and not sacrifice.” – Kris Vallotton
