Broody, senior ER doc Atticus Thorin has spent years crafting the unbreakable walls around his scarred heart.
Samantha Sheridan’s escape from her past leads her straight into the arms of the forbidden—falling hopelessly for the one man off-limits to her.
Dr. Atticus Thorin is unattached and has every intention of staying that way. He’s built his life around control and emotional detachment, a fortress around his heart no one has ever breached.
Sixteen years her senior, Atticus knows he should stay away from the one woman who makes him feel alive again.
But Samantha, with her fiery spirit and untested naivety, tempts him to disobey his own rules…and covet the one thing he knows his wounded heart can’t have.
Samantha Sheridan’s fresh start? More like a dumpster fire! Leaving her old life behind seemed foolproof until she ran smack into Dr. Grumpy at her new job.
She thought moving to Tacoma would put her miles away from trouble, but apparently, trouble wears scrubs and loves to make her blood boil in more ways than one.
Chased by the sins of her father, her past demons come to steal her away in the night, leaving her nowhere else to turn except to the man who completely broke her.
Teetering on the edge between heartbreak and healing, will he be the one to catch her, or will he let her fall?
A sizzling, workplace, age-gap romance, Night Shift is the first in a new series of standalone romances featuring a trio of brothers who each must learn to tear down their walls and find out what it’s like when you allow yourself to break.
Coming Soon!

Evie James crafts tales of fiery passion and bold encounters, weaving stories where headstrong women meet their matches in equally dominant men. The kind of spicy, contemporary romance that sets the page on fire—featuring strong women who don’t back down and the alpha males who are all too eager to kneel at their command. James’s narratives are soaked with steamy scenes, loaded with angst, dripping with sass, and the “F-bomb” is practically a character in its own right. Each story is a bold adventure, packed with high-stakes drama that keeps readers on the edge. James believes in the power of love to conquer all, and that if her characters can do it, so can we. Diving into her world offers an unfiltered, heart-pounding experience, where readers live every moment from both sides through a dual point of view. Welcome to a journey where love wrestles with reality, and every story promises a raw, gritty ride to a happily ever after that’ll leave you breathless.
Evie lives in a small town just east of Nashville with her husband, four loud and playful dogs, and a cantankerous old cat. She’s the proud mother of one daughter who is an airline pilot and whose middle name should have been Danger. When she’s not writing, she’s likely to have either a camera or brush in her hand pursuing her love of art. As a Certified Professional Photographer and digital artist, Evie never has to search far for a creative distraction.
