The Shattered Halo Series
Shattered Dreams
When two childhood friends reunite after years apart, old flames reignite, and past grudges resurface making the tour they’re stuck on together. . . complicated.
I left everything behind five years ago. When my best friend disappeared the day after my high school graduation, I couldn’t live his dreams without him. The path I chose sent me into the arms of an abusive man. This isn’t where I thought I would end up. I was supposed to be playing stadiums and writing songs with my friends. With Ezra, but he’s gone and so are my dreams.
My only choice was to run to my brother for help. Never in my wildest dreams did I think his help would include my best friend’s brother. Kai, the boy I loved most of my life was now the man standing in my brother’s kitchen glaring at me and demanding where the bruises on my face came from. One look at Kai had all my feelings rushing back. Feelings I thought I had long since extinguished.
With my ex being a threat to my safety, my brother talks me into going on tour with his band. Six weeks in Europe. Six weeks with Kai glaring at me. Six weeks to get over the man I thought was going to be my happily ever after.
Soon secrets come to light and maybe my dreams aren’t as shattered as I originally thought. If we can survive the threats against me and the revelations around what happened to Ezra anyway.

Hidden Truths
Balancing unexpected parenthood while going on tour with your band and searching for your missing best friend is easy…right?
Getting the call telling me I’m a father was the best and most stressful day of my life. Now I have a little girl to care for and I’m barely able to take care of myself. So, my sister gets me to hire a nanny.
Harlow is the definition of walking temptation and I’m somehow supposed to resist her while she lives in my house and takes care of my daughter. Sounds easy enough. Except I can’t resist her. I don’t want to.
She’s also the daughter of our private investigator and the host of a true crime podcast. With her help, we get closer to finding out what happened than we have ever been before. But with that comes the wrong kind of attention.
Things are about to get dangerous, and I might have to choose between my daughter and my best friend.

Broken Promises
Agreeing to marry your best friend to get him a lucrative hockey contract while balancing a nationwide tour and keeping feelings off the table is simple. . .I think.
Declan and me have been friends for as long as I can remember. So when he calls me and asks me to marry him to clean up his reputation and save his hotshot hockey career, I agree immediately. He'll be busy with hockey and I'll be away on tour with my band. It'll be easy to keep feelings out of the equation when we don't see each other.
Except the dangers that I thought were long gone and locked up turn out to be roaming free and back after us. Declan leaves my side as little as possible, convinced he can keep me safe. But with his proximity comes all the feelings I've been keeping buried for years. I don't know how to keep my fake marriage from feeling real while also trying to make sure everyone I care about stays alive. Not for the first time, I'm wondering if I jumped into something too fast.
The closer we get to finding out what really happened to Ezra, the closer we come to danger. We have to decide if the prize is worth the price. I used to think it was. But that was when Declan was thousands of miles away. Now that he's living in my house and sleeping in my bed, can I really risk his life too? Does Ezra even want to be found?
As more and more secrets come to light, it becomes clear we can't trust anyone. Even those closest to us. The only thing I know for certain is that I can trust Declan with my life, but can I trust him with my heart?
