An incredible romance involving a man, the music he craves, and the voice that haunts him.
Rock and roll turns Brandon Wayne into a juvenile delinquent in all the best ways—crazed, ambitious, and with a slip of danger nagging at his hips.

As an anniversary of tragedy approaches, odd occurrences riddle Brandon's mind with questions. Whose voice is suddenly materializing in his head? Is he fabricating a psychic who looks like one of his favorite rock stars? Why is he having retro dreams involving welded beer cans, disco, and a punk rock girl? The puzzle seems never ending.
Have the musty fumes at Warped Records and the terrible candy at work rotted Brandon's brain? Has he crossed into the realm of insanity? Or is the reason for the madness beyond his comprehension?

Across the continent, Bailey is the answer to Dale's prayers. However, her sleazy boyfriend has her over a barrel. Someway, somehow, she has to outfox that snake and escape his hold—even if it means diving into mischief.
When a long-sought opportunity arrives, will it lure Dale off course? Or will otherworldly intervention get him and Bailey dancing cheek to cheek?

Praise for the Forbidden Flower series.
"I found myself weeping tears of both pain and triumph all because Diane Rinella's prose painted a brilliantly tortured landscape that had me questioning what I once saw only as black and white…The subject matter may not be for everyone, but if you have an open mind and open your heart, this book will destroy you – beautifully." - Martini Times Romance
"It deals with a taboo subject and definitely would not be everyone's cup of tea. But I have to tell y'all, I was riveted from the first sentence… the writing is so eloquent and lyrical, it made reading about Lily and Donovan easier. The love, anger, confusion is all rendered so poetically I tended to forget that I wasn't reading the average love story." - Bookworm Brandee
"I have cried with them, been angry for them, laughed with them and even though the series is over, I will carry them with me. Yes, I sound like they are living human beings, but that is the way this author writes them. They do become real and they make you fall in love with them and want to fight for their right to love each other." - Life Becomes Me
"Love's Forbidden Flower had a ginormous impact on my heart. It's a book that has stuck in my mind ever since I read it, and I'm pretty sure it's not going away any time soon. A beautiful, compelling story." - Just A Booklover
Love's Forbidden Flower
*** Please note: This is a New Adult Romance novel involving two siblings who struggle with their emotions. This is not a work of erotica.***
The heart cares not what society forbids.
Lily nurtures a secret love for a flawless man—the one who is her soul mate. Donovan is gorgeous, charismatic, and delights in all of Lily's talents and quirks. Their innate knowledge of each other is almost telepathic. Together they interlock like fine threads creating luxurious silk.
But society dictates this picture-perfect adoration is the ghastliest of all possibilities.
As Lily embarks on a quest for the romance the heavens intended, her suitor turns reluctant. Desperate to uncover why Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hiding decayed from a tender-hearted gentleman into a ferociously self-serving, cocky bastard, Lily is prepared for battle when it comes to the salvation of her soul mate. However, Donovan traps Lily in a mental game of chess, leaving her to question his sanity. When Lily's revelations about Donovan's destructive alter ego lead to an inconceivable truth, can she help Donovan survive fate's cruel joke?
Impassioned, witty, and deeply moving, Love's Forbidden Flower is filled with stunning controversies that will forever haunt your heart.

Time's Forbidden Flower
An eternity of passion cannot be quelled by society.
Once upon a time Donovan assured Lily all of her dreams would come true. But how could he keep the promise of a fairy tale when her truest goals could not involve him, though her deepest desires did?
Now, Lily has it all—love, passion, a family, and the career of her dreams—with Christopher. But something is lacking. She and Donovan have spent the last ten years living apart, and the soul mates are eager to reunite. Can Donovan keep his promise to give Lily all she desires, even with Christopher in the way?
For Lily and Donovan, the past is a mirror to
the future that cannot be shattered.
Donovan is convinced Lily has been his love for all eternity. Determined to unravel the past, they embark on a journey to discover where it all began. For centuries Donovan has stolen Lily's heart while forced to suffer for his love. How much can a soul endure before the breaking point is reached and a monster emerges? Can the demons of the past be combated to pave the way for happiness in the next life? Or has the abuse suffered in this life already turned Donovan hell bound?
