Saving Noah (Perception, #1)
Shandi Boyes
On paper, Noah Taylor appears to have the perfect life: good looks, a gifted voice, and a multi-platinum record deal in the works. In reality, expectations exceed actualities, and disappointments are constant. Everyone he’s ever cared about has left him, so what happens when he attracts a girl who sees through the shield others can’t? He fights the pull; he tells himself no—but sometimes fate can’t wake you from one nightmare without first trapping you in another. With love on his side, can Noah survive the next devastating event in his life? Or will he discover no amount of dreaming will help him escape his reality? You will laugh and you will cry, but the story of Noah Taylor will stay with you forever. Saving Noah is a heart-clutching, ugly-cry rockstar romance that will break your heart before slowly piecing it back together. It's a standalone with no cliffhangers and a guaranteed HEA! Tissues are recommended. Author Warning: This book will make you ugly cry. It has steamy scenes. This title was previously published as two books, Perception of Life & Reality of Life. It has been extensively rewritten, re-edited, and has a swanky new cover.
Chains (Bound, #1)
Shandi Boyes
Cleo Garcia had the world at her feet: a lucrative position with the top media company in the country, a healthy bank balance, and the support of her beloved family. Her life was perfect. She was set for greatness. . . until she approved an article on the No1 singer in the country doing a stint in rehab when he was fighting for his life in an Intensive Care Unit.
That was the very first kink in a downward spiral that saw Cleo slip from grace. Her desk was moved to the basement, her six-figure income stripped away, and a tragic accident no one saw coming impacted her in ways you could never envision.
So imagine her surprise when four years after the mishap that downgraded her from Chief Executive of Entertainment to Flamboyant Obituary Writer she was personally selected by billionaire Jack Carson to investigate what was being touted as the story of the century.
With a stream of luxury perks thrown into the deal, and the guarantee of a stable income for years to come, the dreams that slipped from Cleo’s grasp four years ago were returning stronger than ever. It was the ideal situation, a perfect way to show her top-ranked journalism studies were being wasted in the basement. She was determined. Nothing was going to stand in her way. . . until she discovered who she was set to investigate.
Can Cleo push aside the demons of her past to bring the story of the century to fruition? Or is she being lured into a world determined to swallow her whole?
From the author who brought you the Perception and Enigma series comes the next tantalising instalment. This is the story you’ve been waiting for. The one I deemed too risqué to write. Sit back and enjoy the story about two people in vastly contradicting roles come together in a fire-sparking showdown. Just be warned: it is the shy ones you need to watch the closest.

Player of Life
Shandi Boyes
I don’t just have the entire package—looks, stamina, and a smile that makes girls weak at the knees—I am the entire package.
My name is Nicholas Holt—or “The Player” to those who know me best. I was the man your mother warned you about. The self-described playboy who had no intentions of settling down. I partied hard, I f*cked harder, and the wall I built around my heart was the hardest of them all.
But like all good tales, a story can’t be unraveled without a few gut-twisting hairpins from the rollercoaster we call life. A pretty blonde with dazzling blue eyes and tiny facial features was one terrifying hairpin I never saw coming. Against screaming protests and a vast strength of resistance, she forced the wheels of my rollercoaster to skid off the tracks.
Her name is Jenni—or “The Player Slayer” as I like to refer to her. With a killer smile and an ability to deflect my wooing charm, she was the first women in a long time to secure my utter devotion. Don’t misread my admission, it wasn’t just her tempting body that obtained my attention. It was her eyes.
Just one look into her soul-bearing eyes guaranteed that the ride we were commencing wasn’t just going to be long, tortuous and hair-raising, it was also going to be epic, like nothing I’ve ever experienced.
It was.
It was the best ride of my life.
But like all rollercoasters, the ride eventually stopped and the participants were advised to exit via stage left. Will a player have what he needs to convince the woman who brought him to his knees back into the cart? Or will the hairpins of lies, deception and stalkers cause one too many dips in the craziest ride of all—the ride of love?
If you have loved the Perception series thus far, you’re going to love this next rock-star, groupie stalking installment.
Don’t assume you already know Nick and Jenni’s story; you haven’t even scratched the surface yet.

Spy Thy Neighbor (Enigma #7)
Shandi Boyes
Can be read as a standalone.
I flew across the country with one goal on my mind.... finish my book.... and maybe lick the wounds of my shredded heart.
My editor was screaming for the first draft, my agent was nagging for teasers, and my publisher was reminding me that my strict deadline was only months away. However, there was a dilemma. I had writer's block. Not just a little spanner thrown into the works writer's block. Writers. Block. As in staring at the blinking light on my Mac monitor begging for a stream of words to magically appear.
This was not my first rodeo, though. I am a well known and respected author. I just can't write about romance, flowers, and butterfly kisses when all I want to pen is my own rendition of Basic Instinct. Ice picks to the heart, forks in eyes, and knees slammed into assholes crotches are not solid key pointers for a sweet romance novel.
Just as I was about to throw down the gauntlet and call in my defeat, I spotted him. The bearded, tattooed man who lives in the glasshouse next door. He was in a venereal, lust filled twist with a pretty blonde who had buxom bosoms and legs that went for miles. I should have looked away. I should have respected his privacy. I should not have opened my notepad and took detailed dot points on his technique. However, every precise thrust of his hips, snippets of his well-carved physique, and droplets of sweat running down his glistening torso had words flowing quicker than I was able to write them. He was my inspiration, my muse, my next book alpha male.
My plan was working. The words were flowing, and they were magnificent, by far my best work to date. My editor was in love with the first half of my draft, my agent was using snippets of the first two chapters to secure big endorsement deals, and my publicist was talking about a new three book deal.
Everything was perfect.... until the bearded stranger spotted me spying on him.
Adult content, sexual references, recommended for 18+ readers.

Unraveling an Enigma (Enigma #2)
Shandi Boyes
I've known for months that Isabelle was hiding something in her beautiful chocolate eyes. I just had no clue that it was something so mammoth. Over the past five years, I’ve become accustomed to the vicious ploys some women undertake to capture my attention. The spilled drinks, the damsel in distress. Hell, I’ve even been propositioned with money from wealthy business associates in my industry just for the chance of occupying my bed for one night. But Isabelle was by far the most elaborate ruse I’ve ever come across. The woman that invades my every waking thought is an undercover FBI Agent. A stringent ruse to pry me of privy information that no one outside of my inner circle has access to.
I’ll give it to her, though. She performed well. She played me like a f*cking fiddle.
Only now, after being arrested by Isabelle, do I realize that all of my assumptions and thoughts I had compiled on her have been terribly inaccurate. I don’t really know her at all. She is practically a stranger.
Or she will soon become one.

I play ball every week, date cheerleaders and sorority sisters, and attend the most happening parties, but I had no clue how meaningless my existence was until I stumbled upon Summer Ramsay.
She was a mess in all meanings of the word. Her hair was a disaster, her wardrobe borrowed from both her mother and father’s closet, and she wore blue eyeshadow like she was hankering for a Gun N Roses reunion.
Yet, despite all that, I couldn’t help but gawk.
She was nothing like the women I ‘dated,’ and everything I aimed to stay away from, but when an unexpected interaction unearthed her ability to sniff out a psychopath from a mile away, I knew we had to collaborate.
The terms of our agreement were simple. I’d help Summer become less dorky, and she’d save my face from being scalded by wannabe black widows.

Maybe she’s staying away because she’s trying to save me more heartache, because she doesn’t want to come clean. I’m not the only one at fault here. I did wrong, but so did she.

The thrill of the chase ran through my blood so fast, for the first time in years, I felt like I had a heart sitting in my chest. Its beat was weak and cold, but it was still thumping nonetheless.
It had literally only been a few hours since I had a woman’s warmth wrapped around my cock, but my hunger for Justine was uninhibited. Her scent was so intoxicating, my arrogance fed off it. I craved it like a drug, willing to give up everything to have it embedded in my skin—even my freedom.
They say revenge is a dish best served cold, but Vladimir isn’t going to be that lucky. I was maimed, beaten and tortured as he groomed me to be a natural born killer, and he is going to discover the hard way how precise his tactics were.
Disrespecting my family is as punishable as disrespecting me. Justine is now my family, and I’ll spill the blood of a thousand men before I let anyone take her away from me.

Clover (The Italian Cartel, #8)
Shandi Boyes
I kill for the money.
The thrill.
The condemnation.
I plan to go to hell, so why not have some fun during the prolonged detour?
But today… today I made an exception.
Estelle Armstead was an easy mark. I could have ended her life the instant she opened her front door, refunded the one hundred thousand dollars my client paid to cause a ruckus, then went on my merry way.
What stopped me? The simple answer is entertainment. One person’s death can be easily replaced by another, but true entertainment for a man as immorally corrupt as me is hard to come by.
Most men flounder when they see me, but Estelle took my bad temper in stride like it’s a nasty side dish she can make more pleasant with a sprinkling of seasoning.
I don’t have the heart to tell her that won’t be the case. I was born evil, bred evil, and I will die evil. But just like straitlaced men, murderers have needs too. Needs I can see Estelle’s tight body and sassy mouth fulfilling.
I’ve just got to take care of one matter first. The three hundred-thousand-dollar bounty on her head, and the weasel she calls her boyfriend.
Clover is book 9 in the highly anticipated Italian Cartel Series. Although it can be read as a standalone it would be more enjoyable after the first three books in the series. Clover is mean, rough, and kills for a living. If grumpy alphas aren’t your thing, his story may not be for you. Reader discretion is advised.

And that’s exactly what happened when he brought my father before his court.
Blood doesn’t make you family, but it most certainly feels that way when the man you swore to obey destroys more than your heart.
Roxanne is book two in the highly anticipated Italian Cartel series by bestselling author Shandi Boyes. It has dark themes and is only recommend to readers over the age of eighteen.
Dimitri (The Italian Cartel #1)
Shandi Boyes
Famiglia prima di tutto. Family first of all. That’s the motto the Petrettis lived by when New York was governed by the Italian Cartel, and our name was worth something.
Now, it’s disrespected.
Now, it’s tainted with hate.
I had plans to alter that, but the game changed when my pregnant wife was kidnapped by a rival. Her body was never found, and I’ve paid to guarantee our daughter’s safety ever since.
During the day, I’m a businessman in a tailored suit. At night, I’m an avenger who’ll do whatever it takes to get his daughter back. My father may have forgotten the morals our ancestors ruled with, however, I cannot. My daughter is the princess of the Italian Cartel, and she will be protected accordingly.
I just need to get a pesky redhead with gleaming green eyes out of my head first. Her entrance into my life could ruin everything, including her very existence.
Dimitri is book one in the highly anticipated Italian Cartel series by bestselling author Shandi Boyes. It’s a new series with gritty alpha males and the women who bring them to their knees.
