Sometimes you gotta risk it all to get what you want.

Loveable rogue Patrick MacAteer works hard and plays harder. He lives for a good time, uncomplicated women, and being the center of the party, and he’s determined to not change that one bit. From the moment he walks into Gallagher’s Pub, his plan falters. There's a pull and a connection there he finds hard to resist.

Pub owner Sloane is the driving force behind her bar. She makes drinks nightly, slinging both booze and her sassiness for her customers, but underneath, she’s hanging on by fraying threads. As soon as Patrick enters with his easy banter and his incorrigible personality, Sloan finds herself unraveling.

Can she trust him and his nonchalant lifestyle?  Can he find the depth to be capable of love?  Can both of them take a chance and risk it all?



She turned away to straighten the liquor bottles on the back wall display and tension pulled her muscles into rigid ropes.  She hid herself from the celebrating bar and no one paid attention to the two tears tracking down her cheek.  A thin hand came up to wipe them away and Patrick could see the fatigue on her face. Patrick kept his eyes on the struggling woman.  He watched her bite her lip in an effort to keep it still and regain control.

Something about the song or the rough night? She had been on her feet serving, pouring, cleaning, and ringing up orders for the bar and the waitresses since before he and Angus showed up and Patrick hadn’t seen her sit down.  Not once.  He admired she had the power and energy to keep up all night.  Long work days were normal for him as well, but he was a lot bigger and stronger than this tiny woman.

Sloane. Sloane was her name. 

As if sensing his perusal, she lifted her eyes and met his in the mirror.  Her tears dried up, and she lifted an eyebrow at him in a classic what-the-hell-do-you-want expression.  He smiled and winked at her before he lifted the bottle in a private toast and tipped it back.

I've had stories in my head since I was a child.  All sorts of stories of fantasy, romance, mystery and anything else that captured my interest.  I'm a voracious reader, and have spent many hours in my life devouring books, therefore it's only fitting I should write a few myself!  

I've spent most of my life as a performing musician and band instrument repair technician, but that doesn't mean I'm pigeon-holed into one mold.  I've been a university professor, belly dancer, craftsperson, soap maker, singer, rock band artist, jewelry maker, lifeguard, swim coach, and whatever else I feel like exploring.  As one of my students said to me once, "Life's too short to ignore the opportunities."   I have no intention of ever stopping so welcome to my story world.  I hope you enjoy it!
