Now Live
Hearts on Fire
Danger. Lies. Theft. All the highlights of a hot as hell honeymoon.
They thought they left the petty cruelty and sadistic games behind after graduation. But when Interpol taps the security firm, Locksley Hall, for help, Iris and August need to resurrect the ghosts of the past to join the intoxicating, deadly games their suspects play.
Wealthy, sophisticated, indulged, and entitled, there is little these thieves can’t get away with. When money is no object, the only thrilling stakes left to wager are their lives.
A year ago, neither August nor Iris had anything to lose. But now, jumping into this game might cost them everything.

Trigger Warnings:
This is a dark romance books
This book contains scenes of violence, bullying, humiliation, attempted sexual assault, PTSD flashbacks, bribery, corruption, forbidden sex (not with the main characters), sexual assault, abuse, attempted murder, assault, choking, and murder. There are discussions of human trafficking, suicides, past rape (not of FMC), underage drinking and drugs.
We’re all the villains in our story.
The MMCs are cruel, entitled, untouchable bullies. The FMC is driven, calculating, and willing to do anything for vengeance. This story contains graphic, unapologetic sex between the eighteen-year-old FMC and multiple male characters. However, it is NOT a cheating trope.
You know you love my sass.

Fantasy Roots...

I've loved magic and fantasy since first reading Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising series in fourth grade. Narnia, Middle Earth, and Hogwarts are on my travel bucket list.
When I started writing, it was fantasy. Warriors, mages, dragons... all the greatest hits. Definitely not published, though. And I wrote myself into a pretty serious corner.

Several years ago, I started writing tales that twisted magic and love, then threw in a bit of spice...
Okay, in certain cases, a lot of spice.
These books I've been publishing spicy romance books since 2020 under a different pen name.

...With a Twist
Late last year, I started working on something different. Still spicy romance books, doors thrown wide open, but not a hint of magic to be found.
I kind of love how this story turned out. Thus, contemporary romance author, S.M. Cato, was born.
Oh the ideas bursting from my head like champagne after the cork blows!
(But don't worry, my alter ego is still all about the magic, and isn't going anywhere.)
