ROYAL
(A St. Claire Novel, Book 1)
Setting: Charlotte, North Carolina; Lake Norman, North Carolina
Description:
Royal St. Claire was drawn to Gemma Jacobsen from the start. It was an instant connection – one he’s never had with another woman. But he has it with her.
When Gemma was on her sickbed, he loyally stayed by her side, helped nurse her back to health and the two became the best of friends in the process. That friendship grew into something deeper. Something Royal, the picky bachelor, couldn’t deny. Something he didn’t want to deny. It evolved into…
Love.
But no matter how Royal sees her, Gemma knows their friendship can’t be anything more than what it is. Why? Because, in her eyes, he’s got himself together. And the man is fine – the picture of male perfection – while she’s just – well – the lighthearted sick girl who doesn’t have a life. She’s no good for him – no matter how badly he wants her and no matter how much she needs him. Even still, the push-pull force of their attraction proves to be more powerful than they both can bear.
Still, doubts linger. Gemma doesn’t have much experience with men. Correction: Gemma doesn’t have ANY experience with men – but she knows that true LOVE is loving someone more than you love yourself. It’s how she feels for Royal, and that’s why she knows in her heart that he deserves better.

(A St. Claire Novel, Book 4)
Setting: Charlotte, North Carolina; Lake Norman, North Carolina
Description:
His eyes would always follow her signature strut with her tall heels and fitted dresses. He always had something witty to say with her because he just HAD to say something. But the small talk was no longer cutting it. He wanted to know the real Felicity James.
Regal St. Claire isn’t single because someone broke his heart. He never desired marriage because he didn’t think it fit him. He was okay with being himself and not tied down to a woman. But when he met Felicity, he knew he wouldn’t mind being forever joined to a woman like her. She’s feisty. Smart. She’s the kind of woman who could keep him on his toes. The only problem is, she can’t stand him.
Felicity has been going out of her way to avoid Regal, but she can’t avoid him when he comes into her place of business, Wedded Bliss, Inc., ready to sign up for her marriage matchmaking service. He figured the best way to get to know the woman of his dreams is to pretend like he’s searching for someone else. All the while, he’s learning her mannerisms and hoping that she’ll eventually see that she’s really the woman he wants.

MAGNUS
(A St. Claire Novel, Book 5)
Setting: Charlotte, North Carolina
Description:
Magnus St. Claire is one of the most handsome men I’ve seen.
He’s handsome, but a complicated mess.
Rich, but the billions don’t mean a thing.
He’s broken, but he hides it well.
In need, but not for anything money can buy.
He makes me an offer – one I refuse to his chagrin. He’s never been one to take no for an answer, and he definitely won’t in my case. He wants to leave behind a legacy. A child. He wants me to have his baby. The old-fashioned way. No strings. No love. No nothing. Just a baby.
I should run.
Run for the hills. But he has something that I need, and it’s not money.

MONTY
Setting: Concord, North Carolina; Charlotte, North Carolina
There are three things I know for certain about Montgomery St. Claire.
One, he’s FINE.
Two, he’s FILTHY (in terms of being rich).
Three, he’s a FREAKIN’ mean, arrogant prick with a lot of dough who knows he can do anything he wants. Have anything he wants. Be anything he wants.
We’re from different worlds. I’m modest and content. He’s rich and extraordinary. He’s a man who has it all, but if I’ve read him right, I see conflict in his green eyes. I recognize it so well because I have skeletons of my own. My life is complex and messy. So is his.
It’s our complexities that ultimately bonds us. He has something for me I didn’t think I was worthy of. I have something for him he thought he’d never want. Together, we have the power to heal each other. To live. To love. We have FREEDOM.
Apart, we’re broken. When our souls are in sync, we’re FIRE.

(A St. Claire Novel, Book 7)
Setting: Concord, North Carolina; Charlotte, North Carolina
Description:
Major St. Claire had his eyes set on Selah Winston almost immediately. Since meeting her at his brother’s wedding, he felt the sparks that jumpstarted his dormant heart. The connection was instant and undeniable. Whenever he’s near Selah, he feels a sense of home and security. He knows Selah is feeling him too, but she denies their connection and insists she has nothing to offer him but friendship. She’s busy rebuilding her life after struggling with drugs, depression and family issues. She has no time for anything or anyone else.
Or so she thinks. She doesn’t know how persistent St. Claire men can be, apparently…
Major ‘somewhat’ concedes to her request. He’ll give her friendship (for now), a little bit of space (for now) but it doesn’t thwart his original goal to make her his woman. Everyone has family issues. He knows that all too well. From his perspective, the best way to handle them is to work as a team to help each other overcome their problems. In helping her, he may have found the remedy to his own complications and a new beginning he never saw coming.
