The Baby Dilemma is book 2 in my Batchelor Life series, and I can’t wait to share more!!

🗓️ Release Date: January 26, 2027

Hendrix Batchelor manages his personal life as carefully as his professional one. For the Batchelor Corporation executive, avoiding romantic commitment means staying safe from the turbulent family dysfunction that still haunts him. Sure, his comfortable, long-time situationship with Brianna Cobb ended because they wanted different things, but the split was uncomplicated. . . . Until he learns Brianna is pregnant and wants to raise the baby alone.

With a baby due just as her career is thriving as one of the few Black girl professional gamers, Brianna is making tough but necessary choices. Why would she and Hendrix work now, when they never have before? Yet the more time Hendrix spends by her side as her pregnancy progresses, the more she starts to fall for the man he’s proving to be.

After all this time, can Hendrix convince Brianna that what they have is the real thing? Or will Batchelor family drama force everyone to question whether they have the courage to abandon their best-laid plans . . .

He’s the lone wolf who thinks he’s

too damaged for love.

She’s the analyst whose fraud investigation

just put a target on her back.

When protection becomes a partnership,

the real danger might be to their hearts.

KODIAK

Investigating cyberattacks on VA payment systems with Emma Sinclair should be straightforward—trace the money, identify the hacker, close the case. But when threats escalate, Emma refuses to back down. I walked away from her six months ago when I thought she was with someone else. Now, as we chase leads across the country, I’m falling for the woman I never should have left behind. When evidence points to someone in her inner circle, keeping her safe might mean admitting I was wrong about everything.

EMMA

Having Coleman “Kodiak” Emeric assigned to my VA fraud investigation wasn’t my choice—but when someone rigs your coffeemaker with explosives, you need K19’s cyber expertise. Working with the man who disappeared six months ago should be strictly professional. Instead, I’m falling for the lone wolf who walked away without an explanation, just as we uncover $30 million stolen through fake veteran charities. The closer we get to the truth, the more dangerous this becomes—and not just for my heart.
