Cincinnati 1-3, Brass Key, Gold Strand, Vine St. - Cincinnati Collection, #1

Brass Key, Cincinnati #1 Carla Janine had her share of heartache. She didn't think long term, so it was good times and great pay tending the bar, but a wild morning with Brodie changed things. Carla woke up to roses on her pillow. She took the hookup for what it was and didn't expect to see Brodie sitting at the bar six months later. Brodie Lennox had his share of heartbreak. The Brass Key was his last stop before leaving town.
It started with a drink and ended in bed with Carla. He left without saying goodbye, but a crisis will bring him back. Brodie will deal with Carla's emotional temper and prove she means more to him.  Gold Strand, Cincinnati #2 Sami Mahogany Williams didn't come from money. She couldn't get anything in this world without having to give up something. Life taught that lesson several times over, so the penthouse at the Gold Strand Hotel and twenty grand in cash were signs that everything was about to go wrong.
A veiled threat against her sister will force her to make a deal. Sami was given six days to do it, but she's willing to risk it all. Jamieson Carmichael was the co-owner of Lennox Restaurant but success didn't change him. Family issues happen when his gambling addicted father runs up more debt, but there's more to it this time. It started with a beautiful woman. Their exchange was in passing until he saw her again at the Gold Strand Lounge.
Sami Mahogany was an elegant beauty with soulful brown eyes, and the kind of trouble he needed. Their lives will collide with dangerous temptations, but Jamieson is playing for keeps.   Vine Street, Cincinnati #3 Phil was everything Dionne Ebony Williams wanted. He looked out for her when she needed someone the most, but one night changed everything. Dionne was trying to get back on track when Phil walked into the Vine Street Diner.
She still loved him but so much happened. Phil Levante wasn't the kind of man to let anyone stand in his way, but Dionne was afraid of him and that hurt his heart. Phil was trying to earn her trust when trouble comes their way. He'll make sure it's different this time around.
