Synopsis
The first time Bailey Walker met Cooper Christie, he tripped her up; the second time, he stole her bra and broke her cell; and the third time, he drove away, leaving her alone at the kerb. In short, he was an ass!
The problem was that he was the hottest guy Bailey ever seen, and as much as she loathed everything about him, she couldn’t help but be attracted to him.
When her mom asked her to go dress shopping, little did she know how much her life was going to change! Not only had her mom been dating Cooper’s father in secret, she was now engaged to him and the wedding date was set.
As her new step-brother, Cooper was now completely out-of-bounds. But when does love ever follow the rules?
Could they survive his father’s wrath or would love, hate and forbidden attraction destroy them both?

Sailor Take Warning 
The Painted Lady Inn Mysteries Book 11 
by M K Scott 
Genre: Cozy Mystery 


The commissioner banned citizen interference in police investigations, but that’s never stopped Donna before and won’t stop her now.

A race yacht has capsized. A millionaire has gone missing. If that and the involvement of a would-be psychic aren’t reason enough to worry, adding Donna’s meddling mother to the mix will jeopardize Legacy’s reputation even further.

Can Donna rein in the chaos before it spells disaster for everyone involved? 

**Only .99 cents!!**




The round golden sun glistened in the pristine blue skies rather like a Christmas 
ornament, except it was May. The low hum of the waves punctuated with an 
occasional childish scream of joy as a child met the ocean for the first time 
provided background sound. Donna Tollhouse, innkeeper, and her sister-in-law 
Maria stood on The Painted Lady Inn’s wraparound porch while peering in the 
direction of the ocean, which would have been visible if the trees hadn’t leafed 
out so much.

“I could help with your regatta-themed dishes,” Maria offered with a grin.

There were a few more screams, not so childish but equally playful. Donna, 
who had been holding Baby Cici, her niece, cut her eyes to her sister-in-law 
Maria and asked, “Did they hire another half dozen hot life guards this year?”

“Oh, my!” Maria rolled her eyes and waved her hand in front of her face as if 
the thought heated her up. “You should see them. I doubt they’ll be here long. 
Most probably aspire to be models or actors.”

“Well then,” Donna began, then cast a mischievous glance behind her where her
 
husband, Mark, was seated in one of the wicker chairs reading the local newspaper.
 “It’s been quite a while since I’ve taken a stroll on the beach.”

Mark lowered his newspaper to reply, “I’ll be more than glad to take a walk on 
the beach with you. No reason for you to join the mob of Legacy women drooling 
over boys young enough to be your son.”

A derisive snort erupted from Maria. “There’s a female lifeguard, or 
maybe two, attracting all the old geezers’ attention.”





**Books 1-4 are on Kindle Unlimited! **
**Killer Review is FREE from May 1st – 5th!**
**Christmas Calamity is FREE May 17th – 20th!!**





M. K. Scott is the husband and wife writing team behind The Painted Lady Inn Mysteries. Morgan K Wyatt is the general wordsmith, while her husband, Scott, is the grammar hammer and physics specialist. He uses his engineering skills to explain how fast a body falls when pushed over a cliff and various other felonious activities. The Internet and experts in the field provide forensic information, while the recipes and B and B details require a more hands on approach. Morgan's daughter, who manages a hotel, provides guest horror stories to fuel the plot lines. The couple's dog, Chance, is the inspiration behind Jasper, Donna's dog. Murder Mansion is the first book in The Painted Lady Inn Mysteries. Overall, it is a fun series to create and read. Drop Dead Handsome is the second book in the series.

Lying Beneath Tour and Giveaway!


Lying Beneath 
The AURA Operation Book 1 
by Kevin Moran 
Genre: Science Fiction 


Underneath the city lies an advanced society, and its dark secrets could bury her alive. 

Ayla worries she'll be stuck waitressing for pennies until she dies. She longs for adventure, for something to save her from the paycheck-to-paycheck life she lives with her long-time boyfriend, Derek, who plays it safe and only half-tolerates her thirst for exploration. 

With her trusty camera in tow, she explores abandoned buildings, searching for something—anything—interesting. One night, she finds a mysterious trapdoor in an old warehouse which leads to a futuristic society right beneath her feet. 

This is the adventure she's been looking for, but the people underground don't appreciate her intrusion and she quickly finds herself locked up and questioned. They think she's a spy, their questions are getting more intrusive, and Derek has no idea where she is. 

Ayla must find a way out of this underground world that's not at all the adventure she thought she wanted, or she may never see Derek again... 


She kicked the bottom of the door a few times, each time increasing in strength and each time reconfirming her hollow space theory. She plucked the mini crowbar out of her backpack. Her fingers traced the edge of the metal sheet again, trying to find a gap. She plunged the crowbar into as many promising spaces as she could but found nothing more than wiggle room. She tried the top of the door, too, with about as much success.
After admitting defeat, she turned her back to the steel obstacle and lowered herself to the ground. She sat on the floor, dropped her crowbar to her side, and held her head in her hands. It killed her that this mystery haunted her, and all she could do was sit here and come up short, unable to figure out its secrets.
She curled her knees up to her chest. Derek wouldn’t be happy, and she had felt a little crazy. Now that it was all for nothing, she felt even more worthless.
A large, heavy sigh escaped her lungs.
Her adventures would be few and far between, and this wasn’t one of them. She slammed her fist into the door, sending a shock wave up her arm. It hurt, but she had grown numb to being stuck in the hamster wheel of life. She wanted nothing more than to start a new adventure with the man she loved, who was currently curled up in bed, blissfully unaware of the ongoing turmoil inside of her. She loved him and wanted to tell him again, as she now sat alone at the end of a dark, dingy, dead-end hallway, feeling as small as she ever had.
She was enticed but trapped.
She was intrigued but exhausted.
She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
She yelled at the empty space in front of her, picked up the crowbar by her side, and jammed it into the space between the door and the ground.
Something threw off her balance, like someone had kicked her back support out from behind her, and she clawed at the dirt walls to keep from falling. She turned around and stood. The door, her nemesis, had vanished, and in its place was a wall made of a substance with the consistency and color of strawberry jam. It was shiny and gooey and, by far, the strangest-looking wall she had ever seen. She staggered backward and nearly fell, too, but caught herself in time. The intimidating, eerie wall stood there, silently staring at her.
It mocked her.
It dared her.
Is this real?
She inched forward with her flashlight, getting closer to the gel-like wall. An inch away, she paused and held her breath as she pushed the flashlight forward, sinking it into the wall. The light around her subsided, leaving the faint red glow of the wall. She pulled her flashlight back out and inspected it. It seemed fine. She turned it on and off, and it still worked like a normal flashlight.
Am I hallucinating?
She shook her head and took a couple of deep breaths to regain her composure. After begging for adventure and experiences, she finally faced the unknown and had second thoughts. She dropped her gloves and forced herself to take a step forward, her hand held out, shaking on its way to the wall. She pushed it through the gel-like substance and gasped for air.




Kevin Moran has been writing books since he first learned what a book was. His early drafts were held together with pins, staples, glue and string. His process has since improved and he now publishes with An Ink Mover, LLC. He currently has three works available for purchase.

"Lying Beneath" is his latest work and book 1 of the AURA Operation series. It will be available May 5th.

Brooklynaire #Freebie


"Brooklynaire is sexy and addictive!" - #1 NYT Bestseller Lauren Blakely


You’d think a billion dollars, a professional hockey team and a six-bedroom mansion on the Promenade would satisfy a guy. You’d be wrong.

For seven years Rebecca has brightened my office with her wit and her smile. She manages both my hockey team and my sanity. I don’t know when I started waking in the night, craving her. All I know is that one whiff of her perfume ruins my concentration. And her laugh makes me hard.

When Rebecca gets hurt, I step in to help. It’s what friends do. But what friends don’t do is rip off each others’ clothes for a single, wild night together.

Now she’s avoiding me. She says we’re too different, and it can never happen again. So why can’t we keep our hands off each other?



Already read Brooklynaire?


There's a new Bruiser in town!

Sure Shot is here!

On the eve of her thirtieth birthday, sports agent Bess Beringer is ready to make some changes. Armed with a five-year plan—indexed and color coded—she’ll tackle her personal life with the same zeal that she brings to her successful agency.

A big, tall, ripped hunk of hockey player who’s just been traded to the Brooklyn Bruisers is not a part of that plan. Mark “Tank” Tankiewicz has a lot of baggage. He’s a ride-or-die loner with a bad reputation. He’s on the rebound. He’s also the sexiest thing on two legs, and for some crazy reason it’s Bess that he wants.

She knows better. But then she falls stupid in love with him anyway. And for a while it seems like maybe he’ll do the same.

Until she asks him for the one thing he can never give her…

Chapter I
The killer watched.
Light bled from Sam Water’s window, backlighting his silhouette. The pencil danced in his hand. Whatever drove him from his bed must have been important. He was up early, even for a school day.
Marcel leaned against the porch railing and coaxed a cigarette from the package in his hand. The momentary flame from the lighter outlined the web of scar tissue across his palm and three and a half fingers. The car bomb had also spared his thumb. A good thing. Learning how to write with his left hand would have been a bitch.
Not that an old dog couldn’t be taught a new trick. He was no old dog, but the teachings ingrained in him had been done so under conditions leaving no room for change.
The cherry of his cigarette flared in the darkness.
Night in this suburban neighborhood was nothing like where he’d grown up. Tucked in the mountains, there were only the stars, the moon, and the occasional candle. There the darkness wasn’t just a state of being. It was a living thing. All-consuming and unforgiving, conspiring with the wilderness to kill those too weak to survive.
Here the darkness was just a veil; once lifted, life returned, shattering any chance of reaching such perfection.
The storm door to the house opened, and the wooden slats on the porch creaked.
Mild green tea and aloe mixed with the honeysuckle blooming along the split rail fence nestled between the houses. The heat left over from the shower clung to Jacob’s skin.
“I wish you wouldn’t smoke.” In the darkness, there was only the sound of his breathing, the rustle of his clothes, the weight of his body pressing against the space around Marcel. A space that shrank to nothing with another small step.
Jacob’s caress traced the line of Marcel’s jaw. Layers of scars disrupted the gentle movement.
“Did you find your money?” Marcel exhaled a stream of bitter smoke.
“You gave me too much again.”
“It is a tip. For…you know. Good service.”
Jacob teased his fingers down the back of Marcel’s neck. There was more in his touch than physical contact. There was longing, yearning, endless want. But Marcel would never be able to give the man what he yearned for.
“You don’t need to tip me. You already give me so much.”
“I make you live in a motel.”
“Only because it’s close.”
“I could buy you a house.” The tip of the cigarette flared. Jacob was right, he shouldn’t smoke. Damn things never tasted like anything but shit.
“I don’t want a house.”
“You should. You are young. Young people should want a house. A family. A car. You have nothing.”
Jacob rested his cheek on Marcel’s shoulder. “I have you.”
“Nothing.” Marcel snuffed out the cigarette between his finger and thumb, then slid the butt into his shirt pocket. “You should go. Get some sleep.”
“I napped.”
Marcel cupped Jacob’s chin. He didn’t need the light to know how Jacob pleaded with his eyes.
Marcel saw it every time they were together. “No. I have told you many times.”
“Maybe I keep hoping.”
“It is a waste.”
“I don’t see it like that.”
“I could let you go. I could give you enough to go wherever you wanted. Back to school, maybe. What was it you wanted to do again?”
“I don’t want to go to school.”
“You should.”
“I’m happy.”
“You need more than an old man’s cock in your ass. You could go back and get your degree.”
“It takes years to be a doctor, and that dream sailed a long time ago.”
He was young enough to catch up to it. Or simply change direction altogether. All Jacob needed was motivation. A reason to want more. Someway for him to see there was more.
Marcel leaned down, and Jacob tipped his face up, leaving his mouth an inch, maybe less, but definitely not more, away from Marcel’s.
“You need to save those for someone you love.” Marcel traced the bow of Jacob’s lips with his thumb.
“Maybe I have.”
“No, Jacob. I fuck you. That is all.”
“And I’m okay with that. I—”
Marcel stopped him with a press of his finger. The tremor running down Jacob’s body was nothing more than a flutter of his pulse.
Jacob swallowed. “Please don’t send me away.”
One day Marcel would. But not today. Or tomorrow. Jacob wasn’t ready. “Friday. Ten o’clock.”
Marcel went back to tracing Jacob’s lips. He deserved to be kissed, to be loved. But that part of Marcel had been stripped away those nights on a mountain ledge when he was a boy.
“Go home.” He patted Jacob’s cheek. “Rest. You will need it.”
The whisper of tennis shoes against wooden slats faded into steps of rubber soles on concrete. Then those too were gone, leaving Marcel to the darkness.
In the window of the house next door, the boy finished writing whatever had pulled him out of bed. He folded the piece of paper in careful movements. Then he disappeared from view, and the patch of light coming from his lamp winked out.
And the killer watched.

I am a writer of contemporary and speculative fiction and artist of all things monster. I live to create new worlds and the people in them. Several of my books have been best sellers both nationally and internationally. I have also been a finalist in the LAMDA awards, the "Oscars" of gay literary works. 

I do my best to write original stories with powerful characters and emotion as well as a fast-paced plot. My goal isn't just to deliver a good story but to take the reader into the story and let them experience the characters as if they are right there with them.

While almost all my books have a romantic element, I will be the first to admit, they are not traditional romance. In fact, I'd like to think there is nothing traditional about them. And the stories I paint are done so way outside the lines of traditional genres. 

One of my favorite things to do as a writer is push the boundaries of what makes a story and to deliver the unexpected and maybe even change the perspective of the reader. 

My characters are more often than not, beautifully flawed, not always the good guy, and make mistakes. Their stories will take dark turns which, in the end, make the light at the end of the tunnel all the brighter.

If you're looking for something different, exciting, and unique, my books are for you.
