Slater Brothers

After a car accident killed her parents when she was a child, Bronagh Murphy chose to box herself off from people in an effort to keep herself from future hurt. If she doesn't befriend people, talk to them, or acknowledge them in any way, they leave her alone just like she wants. When Dominic Slater enters her life, ignoring him is all she has to do to get his attention.

Bronagh Murphy has been through a lot over the past few years, a hell of a lot, so when her 21st birthday rolls around all she wants to do is relax and spend the day with her family. Quietly. Her boyfriend, Dominic Slater, doesn't do relaxed or quiet. He never has, and he never will. He plans out a day for Bronagh that is both romantic and exciting. However, Dominic's version of exciting is very different from Bronagh's, as she will soon find out.

Alec Slater is a bachelor, never one to bed the same woman, or man, twice. He is a free agent who does what he pleases and answers to no one - that is until a fiery Irish redhead with a temper to match her hair color knocks him on his arse. Literally.

Keela Daley is stressed out. She is moving out of her dog-box-size apartment and into her first house with her fiancé. Moving house is a dreaded task, and Keela would love nothing more than for things to go quietly and smoothly, but when you're engaged to a Slater brother, nothing goes quietly or smoothly. Nothing. What started out as a simple day of packing and moving house turns into the day from hell. Unwanted houseguests. Business propositions. Alcohol. Sex, and everything else that is crazy and represents the name Slater.

Aideen Collins is a free spirit. She is outspoken and tough as nails, but she has to be after growing up in a house full of men. Family means everything to Aideen. Her family consists of her four brothers, her father, and her group of wild friends. Aideen is protective of her family; there is not a lot she wouldn't do to keep them safe. Kane Slater is a tortured soul. Literally. He is misunderstood by people, even feared by them thanks to the scars that mar his face and body.

Aideen Collins is fed up. She is at her wits' end with her eon long pregnancy, her new-found paranoia, but mostly she is fed up with her boyfriend's constant hovering and nit-picking. Kane Slater is happier than ever. He is about to become a father for the first time with the woman he loves. Little does he know that Aideen is both literally and figuratively a ticking time bomb. He just has to survive a few more weeks of murderous hormonal outbursts, and all will be well...or so he hopes.

Ryder Slater is furious. For months now he has been lying to a woman he would take a bullet for in order to protect her. He is involved in something that goes deeper than his old past, and if he strays off target, people will start to die. People he loves. He couldn't talk. He couldn't slip up. He couldn't lose focus. He couldn't do a damn thing. Things between Ryder and Branna are at rock bottom, and Ryder knows it. Not only will he be taking on a force that could destroy his whole family, but he will be battling tooth and nail to save his relationship.

Branna Murphy is a survivor, a wife, a friend, a sister, and a soon-to-be-mother. Ryder Slater is a hardass, a husband, a friend, a brother, and a soon-to-be-father. A surprise honeymoon deep in a beautiful forest for a secluded getaway was supposed to be fun, romantic, and peaceful - until the storm of the century hits and both Branna and Ryder face a new enemy that has means to harm their family. Mother Nature.

Alannah Ryan had always suffered in silence, until that silence became so deafening she spilled secrets that she never intended to. At one point in her life, she yearned for adventure, a nail biting journey...something other than the mundane life she led. Her pleas were answered in the form of a tall, handsome heartbreaker with a mop of white hair.

Alannah Ryan is plagued by an old face haunting her dreams, turning her waking hours into a mess of worry. Talking it out with the person she loves the most isn’t a possibility, not when the same face haunts him, too. To protect the love of her life from another burden, she keeps her fear to herself, even as that fear begins to consume her. Damien Slater has the life he always wanted with the woman he adores by his side, but there’s a problem. His woman is keeping a secret, and they swore they would never let another secret come between them again.

Loyalty. Respect. Wit. Aggression. Heart. Each word describes the Slater brothers and how they were molded into the men they are today, but what did it take to get them where they are? Peeling back each layer to find the brothers’ core means looking at their past to see how they got their future, from overcoming family feuds and breaking a warlord's hold on them to moving to another country and finding women who make their world spin.
