Levi took hold of Taylor’s hand and guided their joined hands to the page. He waited, looking up at Taylor with his huge brown eyes. “Ready?”
Embracing him, Taylor whispered into Levi’s ear. “Of course.”
He signed, with Levi’s hand clutching his tight.
“Dad. I have a dad now.”
Taylor had never been the type of guy to cry, but he gulped. He refused to look at Libby, knowing she’d be weeping for certain.
Levi flung his arms around Taylor’s shoulders and hugged him. “I love you.”
A pair of warm, tender arms surrounded them. Libby. She kissed Taylor’s cheek and whispered, “I love you, too.”
He smiled up at her. “You’re both mine, and I’m yours.”
They were the only two things that mattered.

About the Author
M. A. Stacie is never without a book or her eReader. A voracious reader, with a love of sexy, yet angst ridden novels, she adores getting lost in new worlds. Her need to write did not grip her until after her second son was born, when her previous rambles became fully fledged stories.
She describes herself as one huge contradiction, and though not the most conventional of hobbies, she counts getting new tattoos as one of hers. Running keeps her sane, along with knitting and listening to loud music.
Acknowledgments
Certain people will forever deserve a mention. They make my words legible and my plot realistic, and they spot those great big holes that I missed. They also deserve a medal, or wine, for putting up with my constant insecurities.
Maylin, Jan, and Lauren, I am far more thankful than I can express.

Unwritten Rules
Elle is an energetic, independent woman with a successful business and new start in the big city. The bustling streets of New York are not what she expected, yet she finds the freedom exhilarating. One interaction at the mailboxes with her shy, strikingly handsome neighbor is all it takes to turn the strong- willed young woman into a bumbling mess.
Jonah Quinn is withdrawn for good reason; he harbors a dark secret. He lives his life in the shadows, playing his music in late night bars and hiding himself from everyone but Elle's cat. His tattoos bear his pain while his music is his outlet, but it is his silence that keeps his shame at bay.
Can one night of passion between the two of them lead to more than casual glances exchanged at their mailboxes? Will Elle be strong enough to help Jonah with his personal demons. And will Jonah break his silence regarding a past that haunts him?
The Rules for this relationship are Unwritten. A story of longing, love, and forgiveness.

Beneath the Surface
Kyran Reese is a man in control. Driven when it comes to work, focused when it comes to play. From his office to the chalk circle of Metro’s bare-knuckle boxing ring, his only thought is to win. That thirst heightens when Dale Porter enters his life. His brother’s assistant should be off-limits, but her witty comments and sarcastic comebacks have him desperate to get her between the sheets. After receiving an unexpected left hook, Kyran gets exactly what he wants, though he makes the rules very clear.
When Dale agrees to Kyran’s relationship stipulation of no labels, she’s sucked into a whirlwind of lust, money, and underground boxing. The agreement to keep their lust away from the office is discarded when rules are molded to suit their ever-increasing attraction. Dale fights her growing affection, trying to hide it even when the world around them spirals out of control. All too soon she realizes she can’t hide her true feelings any longer.
Kyran begins to wonder if he’s finally met his match, and with his family falling apart before his eyes, he turns to the two things he knows will keep him sane: boxing and Dale. Those crutches can’t last forever, and when Kyran finds it harder to function he is left with a decision he never thought he’d have to make.
Could playing to win mean playing for keeps?
