⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! Midnight Blue (stand-alone). British bad boy rocker must be on his best behavior with innocent girl hired to baby-sit him while on tour!

“There was a fire to him and it was going to consume him one day.”

Midnight Blue (stand-alone) takes us on a world-wide tour with British bad boy rock Alex Winslow aka The Little Prince and his new “baby-sitter” aka assistant Indigo Bellamy, Indie aka Stardust aka New Girl.

Indie is to help keep the fresh-out-of-rehab Alex out of trouble and work closely with his management team. But first she must pass a-hole Alex bully-test. Alex goes easy on her and off on tour they go. Along the way a friendship is forged when Indie becomes Alex’s muse.

A journey of coping with addiction and painful pasts complicated by vindictive exes, traitors, lies, betrayal, shockers, surprises and jealousy. Indie is in over had head and Alex’s he’s in no shape to handle her fragile heart. A love doomed...

“When I fuck you, Stardust you’ll scream so hard, the whole city will know I’m finally inside you.”



Eleven words to describe Alex Winslow aka The Little Prince: A-hole, brooding, mercurial, complex, broken, flawed, aloof, unpredictable, selfish, reflective and unforgettable.

“His frown. His natural, bee-stung pout. Clean-shaven face, softened by youth but hardened by life.”



Eight words to describe Indigo Bellamy, Indie aka Stardust aka New Girl: Innocent, naive, responsible, broken, lonely, strong, reflective and vulnerable.

“I don’t want to fall in love with you,” she croaked. It wasn’t a statement as much as it was a plea.”

Midnight Blue, told from dual POVs, is an opposite attracts against-all-odds-love. Apart they are two lost souls with demons, together they are dynamite; combustible, powerful and devastating. The story-telling is effortless with poetry from Alex’s song-writing during their travels. The sexual tension is palpable. Their love inevitable. Their destiny inescapable. Spectacular!

“… Stardust was my main instrument. And it saddened me, because I knew I had to break her, too.”
