Sebastian Brady was through. Through with hiding who he was. Through letting his brother officers dictate his life. And completely through, with his family telling him who he was. He turned his back on his badge and his family’s heritage in the Atlanta police force. But, he never imagined that he’d be serving drinks in a gay bar and working for the hottest silver fox he had ever seen in his life.
Xavier and Seb have a lot to learn from each other. Hopefully, their growing love will survive Xavier’s past, Seb’s family, and a host of characters with secrets of their own, who all work at the Knights Club.

Story Background
The Knights Club (formerly the Gentleman’s Club) first appeared in the Warfield Hotel Mysteries Series. It was owned by Stony Whitecastle and is located in Atlanta, GA. At the beginning of the Knights Club/Starting Over, Stony is selling the club to Xavier Knight. He renames the club the Knights Club and instead of a private club opens it the public. Some patrons still hold membership though.
This series involves Xavier and his crew of employees and their involvement with a local police family. We meet Sebastian Brady in Starting Over along with his dysfunctional family. Seb’s struggle with his homophobic oldest brother and the shadow of his dead father, Detective Delmonico Brady, haunts Seb as he tries to make a new life for himself.
Occasionally, a character from the Warfield Hotel series will pop up but they are not central to the story line. Everyone who works at the Knights Club has a past and secret they are running from. They are mixed bag of people who have been suffered many things. The Knights Club is their home and the people who work there are their families. But, even families don’t like each other all the time…
Seb, you will get the feels with him straight away. You just son't be able to help it. He was so tired of hiding who he truly was, and also of his brother still trying to run his life. Xavier was also starting over. He was the new owner of a club. He had tried and failed to find a lasting relationship, so he had decided to put everything into his club instead.
Seb was searching for a job, and he heard about a gay club needing staff and decided to apply. He goes to see the owner (Xavier), but when he mentions his full name, Xavier seems to change into a totally different person - and yells at Seb to get out. As first, Seb ignores what Xavier is saying, as he is too busy staring at him with lust filled eyes. When the words Xavier is speaking finally penetrate through, Seb realises that his brother and dead father still seem to be dictating his life.
Seb manages to stop Xavier, and persuades him to give him a job regardless of who is brother is! He also is given the option of living in the flat above the club, and he jumps at the chance.
Seb and Xavier seem to be growing closer, but neither is really sure of what it is they are feeling. If they stand any chance of becoming a couple, then there are quite a few obstacles that they need to get around, but are their feelings deep enough to get thrm through all of this? Will they realise what it is they are feeling?
This is a great first book of the series, and I am really looking forward to reading more, and I hope to see more of Xavier and Seb too.

The dream of writing her own stories started in high school but was left on the back burner of life until her son introduced her to fan fiction and encouraged her to give it a try. She found that her passion for telling a story was still there and writing them down to share with others was much more thrilling than she had ever expected.
She has a loving and supportive family who don't mind fixing their own meals when she is in the middle of a story, and a network of friends who have encouraged and cheered her on in her quest of being an author.
One thing she has learned from life and she is often heard to say is: “You are never too old to follow your dream!”
