Blurb: 

I can’t escape the truth.

I broke out of the Dark Wolf God’s realm, but I know he’s always there, watching me from the shadows. I should hate him, but I can’t deny that I’m drawn to the ruthless beast, and the heat between us is only growing stronger.

Am I a fool for thinking there’s a chance he can be redeemed?

He’s pulled me into a war between the shifters and the fae—the two halves of my secret heritage. Both sides are hunting me, but I refuse to be a pawn in their games.

With the fate of the Dreamlands hanging in the balance, I’ll need to master my magic and face the truths that could tear me apart.

I took this job knowing the dangers that awaited me.

It was only a matter of time before I got myself into some serious shit.

But none of it was as deadly as the woman I now found myself engaged to.

She wasn’t my choice. But it was marry her or forfeit my life.

She didn’t want me either.

But to get in deeper with The Syndicate, I needed to be on her father’s good side.

The rules were clear.

I marry her or die.

And his parting words to me made it clear there was no screwing this up.

Her life was now tied to mine.

This wasn’t the way I thought I would see myself getting married, but if I wanted to live to see this job through, I had no choice.








I'm a stay at home mom that loves to read. Some of my favorite titles are Pride and Prejudice, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, and Horatio Hornblower. I started writing when I was trying to come up with suggestions on ways I could help bring in some extra money. I came up with the idea that I could donate plasma because you could earn an extra $500/month. My husband responded with, "No. Find something else. Write a blog. Write a book." I didn't think I had anything to share on blog that a thousand other mothers hadn't already thought of. I decided to take his challenge seriously and sat down to write my first book, Jack. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed writing. From there, the stories continued to flow and I haven't been able to stop. I hope my readers enjoy my books as much as I enjoy writing them. Between reading, writing, and taking care of three small kids, my days are quite full.

Something Unexpected




Title: Something Unexpected
Author: Vi Keeland
Genre: Standalone Contemporary Romance
Release Date: July 3, 2023


BLURB

When my grandmother found out she didn’t have long to live, she embarked on a crazy trip—jumping out of airplanes and scuba diving with sharks.

After I repeatedly voiced my concern, Gram blocked me—her own grandson—on text and social media, leaving me only her travel companion Eleanor’s number.

Eleanor started sending me pictures of Gram’s adventures. At first she seemed nice, but when I attempted to persuade her to talk some sense into her friend, she told me where I could stick my advice. After that, photos arrived with snarky comments, and Eleanor and I got into it on more than one occasion.

When I heard Gram’s upcoming plans were more dangerous than ever, I hopped on a plane.

Since I arrived late, I headed to the bar for a drink, figuring I’d surprise her in the morning.

To my delight, I met a gorgeous woman looking for a no-strings-attached night. Nora was just what I needed. She invited me back to her room, telling me to give her a ten-minute head start. But when I went to pay her bar tab, I realized how much she’d had to drink. As much as I wanted to ignore it, I couldn’t. So I stood Nora up.

I knew she’d be pissed, but I also knew I’d never see her again.

Except never came a little early. Namely, the next morning when I went to meet my grandmother and her evil-spinster friend. Because old Eleanor turned out to be young Nora from last night. And if I thought the woman disliked me before, that was nothing compared to how ticked-off she was now. Or how unhappy she was going to be that their party of two was about to become a party of three.
