Who wants to go on vacation with Vander Norcross?
I had a wonderful few weeks of vacation in Italy with my family this year. While I was admiring the view on the Amalfi Coast, I had an idea for a Norcross story leap into my head. I pictured Vander and Brynn heading off to Italy for a relaxing vacation…that doesn’t quite go to plan.
I plotted the novella on my vacation (which was far less action-packed than Vander’s!) and when I got home, I just had to write it
I am so excited to be back in the Norcross Security world with Vander and Brynn Norcross. Here’s the cover for the next story in the series, the novella SAVING MR. NORCROSS.
Scroll down to see the cover for SAVING MR. NORCROSS. There is also a giveaway to celebrate the cover reveal. I have THREE signed paperbacks of any book in the Norcross Security series to give away.
Saving Mr. Norcross
Norcross Security #11
Release date: 16th October 2025

She’ll stop at nothing to save him.
She didn’t think anything could scare her husband, the most dangerous man in San Francisco, but she’s found the one thing that terrifies him.
Fatherhood.
When Detective Brynn Norcross discovers she’s pregnant, she knows her overprotective husband needs time to adjust. When she’s injured on the job, Vander is tense, on edge, and distant.
She decides they both need a vacation. They head to Italy for some rest and relaxation.
But their vacation doesn’t quite go according to plan…
When Vander and his brother Rhys are abducted by the local mafia, all hell breaks loose.
There is no way Brynn can do nothing when the life of the man she loves is on the line. She’ll do whatever it takes to rescue him.
There is no way Vander wants his wife in danger, and he knows she’ll come for him. He’ll do whatever it takes to escape.
Oh, and he also plans to make the people responsible pay.

Snippet from the previous short story Mr. and Mrs. Norcross featuring Vander & Brynn
“You need to let me go.”
Cray laughed. “I have you right where I want you, sweetheart.”
“But if Baker finds out, he’ll be pissed,” the other man stuttered.
Cray whirled and glared at the man. “He won’t find out, will he, Ronny?”
Ronny wiped his hand across his mouth. “N-no.”
“It’s not Baker you need to worry about.” Brynn tested her bindings again. “It’s my husband.”
An unhappy look crossed Cray’s face. “I didn’t know you were married.”
Brynn’s pulse picked up. “Once he knows someone’s taken me, he’ll come.” She met Cray’s brown gaze. “And he’ll annihilate you. All of you.”
Cray was silent a moment, then he let out a low, grating laugh. “He’ll have to find you first.” He jerked his head at Ronny. “Come on. We need to prep for tonight.” Then the two of them walked off, their steps echoing into the darkness.
Brynn started work trying to loosen the ropes.
She knew that finding her wouldn’t take her husband long.
Then he’d come for her. Like a dark, avenging angel.
Or like the loving husband he was…who also happened to be a deadly former Ghost Ops commander.
The most dangerous man in San Francisco.
She had to get free, and save Cray and Ronny’s worthless lives, before Vander arrived.

I have missed the Norcross boys. I may to start the whole series again.
Lovely cover. Parenthood is scary. Even for the scariest guy on the West coast. I look forward to reading it.
The Norcross series is exciting to read again & again as if you have never read it the first time. I look forward to reading more books in this series. I hope, hint hint, that more will come especially with Vanders daughter Alessia and Killians son Stellan.
Yay, more Norcross!!
