By day…
Magnolia Giordano is a labor and delivery nurse.
By night…
she’s Madam Siren, exotic dancer at RISE, the gentlemen’s club she co-owns with her three best friends.
This is her story…
At sixteen I was married off.
At eighteen I was cast out.
Seven years later, I have everything I could ever want but I'm broken, broken beyond repair until I snap and succumb to him. The man I keep running into, the man that changed my life with just one night without even knowing it. I embrace the fairytale, let myself believe I deserve it without knowing it'll put everyone I love in danger. I have everything I ever wanted now though, and there is nothing I won't do to keep it.
One night.
There was something that drew me to her like a...Siren. When fate keeps pushing you together, you can only ignore it for so long. I can't deny it any longer. When her past comes to derail us, I don't have a choice but to protect what's mine and that's her. She's mine and I will do anything to protect this life we've built together, despite the consequences.
This is book 1 in the Sin and Secrets Collection. It is recommended to read the prequel novella, RISE before diving into this series.

Imposter.
Fraud.
Liar.
I’m a walking contradiction, always feeling torn in two. At night, I make men weak and leave them wanting more. By morning, I’m a dutiful elementary teacher who adores the little ones I call my own. Co-owning a gentlemen’s club with my best friends was supposed to grant us all freedom.
So, why does it feel like my wings are being clipped, one feather at a time?
I wear a mask to protect my family from knowing where I spend my nights. I put on a brave face so my girls can’t see how the place that gives them freedom cages me in.
The hardest one of all to wear is the mask of indifference whenever he's near.
The man I can’t have. The one who’s promised to another.
Every time I glance in the mirror, I see two faces, and I’m starting to forget which is my real one.
I tell myself that I can keep up this charade, that I can be two people—even that I can stop loving him.
But aren’t the saddest lies the ones we tell ourselves?

By day...
I, Eden Riser, am a timid librarian.
By night...
I become Madam Roxie, superstar of the gentlemen's club I'm the owner of—RISE.
This is my story…
All my sisters now have their happily ever afters, just like the novels I tend to wrap myself in to escape the scars of my past. I know love will never find me. Not that I even deserve it... But deep down, I still want it. Quietly hiding behind a mask and glasses these past ten years has been easy for this ruined soul with enough sinful skeletons to fill a whole closet. The problem is that it’s getting harder and harder for me to keep my feelings hidden...and to keep my two identities separate--even if it's been as much for safety as for anonymity. Especially when larger-than-life public figure and celebrity book model, Callan Manning enters the picture.
Will unraveling secrets be what destroys us both or is love strong enough to pardon even my darkest sins?
Callan Manning
Yeah, I’m a public figure who takes more selfies of my biceps than I probably should. But this narcissist has a big heart hidden beneath my bulky frame. I’m a caregiver for my nephew with cerebral palsy, and I love my life, but something is missing…
The minute I saw Roxie on that stage, I knew I had to have her, in whatever way I could. But her idea of sexual torment took me to a whole new level of submission I wasn’t accustomed to. There are parts of her that remain untouchable, and God, do I want to touch…
Thing is, I also want another woman, too; a woman who drives me as insane as Roxie does but is her polar opposite in every way—Eden. Something doesn’t add up here, though. I know those eyes, I’ve seen them before. I’ll figure this mystery out if it’s the last thing I do.
Marked by Sin is a dark romance with suspense, BDSM, and duality, and deals with sensitive topics that may be offensive to some readers. Reader discretion is advised.
