Gwen
Gwen and Caleb are madly in love, so walking down the aisle should be as smooth as Santa sliding down the chimney on Christmas Eve, but when Jack Frost sends a blizzard, their Christmas cookies start to crumble. And the icing on the gingerbread house? There’s a stalker on the loose! This Holiday Wedding isn’t looking so holly jolly. It’ll take a Christmas miracle to get these two married.
Jenny
Jenny’s life is a lump of coal. Her career as a reporter has stalled, and her boss is grinch. Eager to leave LA, she dusts off her snow boots to spend a month in New York covering Caleb Lawson, fiancé of her best friend, Gwen. New York is merry and bright except for Dean, Caleb’s grumpy bodyguard. He put Jenny on the naughty list years ago. When these two reluctantly join forces to hunt down Caleb’s stalker, the hot cocoa starts steaming. But can this maid of honor and best man make it down the aisle before their newfound feelings turn frosty?
Holiday Wedding is a dual POV (Gwen and Jenny), swoon-inducing, page-turning, holiday romance. Read if you like enemies-to-lovers, forced proximity, grumpy-sunshine, snowed in, one bed, found family, and pulse-pounding suspense.

A LEXI DAVIS NOVEL
She came in for a routine checkup. She left with a prescription for trouble.
Jessica never expected her annual exam to change everything. But the moment she steps into Dr. Adam West’s office, the air between them crackles with unspoken tension, awakening forbidden desires she’s never dared to explore.
He should keep his distance. She should walk away.
But when her safety is threatened, West’s protectiveness crosses a line—he demands she move into his luxurious penthouse. There’s something about him—something dark, something that calls to her in ways she doesn’t understand—that makes her agree.
Under his roof, boundaries blur and rules shatter. Late-night conversations turn into whispered confessions. Their fiery, physical connection transforms into something far more dangerous: trust.
But the closer they get, the more Jessica realizes—West was never a stranger. And she was never just another patient.
Now, she’s tangled in a web of obsession and desire, where love and control blur. When West’s past and present collide, one question remains:
Will love save them… or ruin them both?
Deeply Examined is a dark, forbidden medical romance featuring a possessive, morally gray doctor and thesunshine heroine who challenges him. Prepare for forced proximity, sharp banter, sizzling chemistry, emotional twists, and a love as dangerous as it is undeniable.
If you crave grumpy vs. sunshine, touch her and ***, and high-stakes storytelling, this one’s for you. Expect spice—both in and out of the exam room. This dark romance ends with a guaranteed HEA, but be warned: it’s not for the faint of heart and includes an extensive list of trigger warnings.
Intended for mature audiences only.
Let’s Fight Cancer Together
I HATE cancer, and I bet you do, too. Personally, I have close family members struggling with it. Professionally as a doctor, I see every day how cancer destroys lives and families. I've decided to do something about it. Each of my books will feature a cancer subplot. With each book, I pledge to donate 10% of the profits out of my own pocket to cancer research. The type of cancer that I'm contributing to will change with each book. For my debut novel, Paging Dr. Hart, I'll give money to fight lung cancer. I encourage you to give as well.
Together we can beat cancer and build a brighter tomorrow.
