Lauren: Graham is my brother's best friend. He's always been my protector and my confident because he accepts me the way I am--and not many do. I can't imagine not having him in my life. Our weekend together was supposed to be a celebration. I graduated from college, Graham got engaged and signed with a pro football team, and my brother landed his dream job. It should have been the best time of our lives. Except that the weekend started with me walking in on Graham's fiancée going down on my brother. I complicated the situation by having sex with Graham after that, but I wanted to comfort him and, damn, when I saw desire in his eyes--for me--I couldn't say no. I've wanted him for so long. Now he doesn't want to see me. He says he has a darker side he needs to protect me from. Where do we go from here? Do I try to pretend to be his friend again or push him to open up to me and possibly lose him forever? Graham: Sleeping with one of my best friends was not exactly a brilliant idea. It made things complicated, and I didn't do anything that threw my life into chaos. The fiancee her brother, Jack, had stolen had been part of my life plan, one more step I was taking to be somebody. Granted, I hadn't been in love with my intended bride, but I didn't really know how to love anybody. I survived. I pushed to achieve more. I battled my way to the top of the heap in my pro football career.. I'm a total dick, and I don't want Lauren to see the side of me that would trample over anybody to work my way up in the world. Lauren sees me as a hero, a title I'd never gain with anybody else in my life, so I wanted to keep her sheltered from the hard realities of my life. I wanted her to continue to think I was nice guy when I was really just the opposite. We never should have crossed the line of going from friends to lovers. There's too much Lauren doesn't know about me, and I care enough about her that I don't want her to share my pain and the darkness that never sees daylight inside me. I want her, but she's a woman I can never have. She's too smart, too sweet, and way too good for a guy like me. Unfortunately, pushing her away becomes much more difficult than I'd planned ..

Charlie: I wasn't the type of woman that a guy like Gavin Reid would usually notice. I was a science geek that no man really paid attention to...until a mysterious hit on my life appeared on the dark web and brought me to Gavin's attention for all the wrong reasons. Sure, he was trying to save my life, but I wasn't about to buy that he was interested in me in any other way except for being a good Samaritan. Rich, highly intelligent, and scorching hot men like him never looked my way. Nevertheless, he did save me in more ways than one, and once I got to know him and his monster dog, I found out that Gavin harbored his own secret pain. He'd been haunted by his past...just like me, and even though our circumstances were different, we were also very much alike. Thrown together by accident, I had to fight our overwhelming attraction, remind myself that it wasn't real. With my life in danger, the adrenaline was high, but once we got back to the real world, the chemistry that was burning white-hot would slowly fade away and I'd go back to my safe, ordinary life again. Do I risk it all and tell him my secrets, or do I keep everything hidden so I can walk away from him once the threat to my life is over? Maybe the hot, stubborn, ultra-intelligent hacker is exactly what I need in my life, but can a woman like me ever be enough for a man like Gavin?

"My name is Ellie Winters. I'm one of those unfortunate women you hear about on the news but you never think my fate will ever happen to you. Not that I blame you for believing that. Honestly, I thought the same thing, until I became a statistic, a missing person who was assumed dead. Wrong place, wrong time. Excep I'm not dead. Not yet. I was kidnapped, shackled, beaten and deprived of the basic necessities, and pretty much left to find a slow, painful demise. I'm hanging on, but just barely. I'm not even sure what I'm waiting for since there's no hope for me, nobody waiting for me. I had finally given up, resigned myself to my inevitable death when the one man who could make me want to live again finds me more dead than alive. After so many months in captivity, I'm lost, hopelessly damaged. Is it even possible for me to come out of the darkness and into the light again? Zane Colter challenges me to live again, laugh again, live my life again. But I'm not sure if I'll ever be the same woman I was before I was held captive by a madman. Yet, he doesn't give up and I couldn't ignore the white-hot passion that sizzled between the two of us. He's everything I've ever wanted, everything I've always needed. Tender but stubborn; logical but understanding; sweet but hot; demanding and possessive. As we fall into each other, both hungry for a passion we've never known, I wonder if I can be what Zane needs when I'm struggling to find myself again. And when I'm finally healed, I'll have a choice to make. Do I try to hang onto him forever, or will letting go be my only option?"--provided by Amazon.com

From NY Times and USA Today bestselling authors J.S. Scott and Cali MacKay...a new dark, steamy romance about two people who never should have met... Anna What are the chances of me getting kidnapped in a small town in the foothills of Colorado by a man who is the subject of an international manhunt? I'd say probably the same odds as winning the lottery...several times. Except I wasn't that lucky. I moved to this tiny town and opened a small diner to find some peace. I used to love staring at those beautiful, majestic, snow-capped mountain peaks. Now all that sight brings me is sorrow and heartache. Still, I'm here. I can't leave. I can't just run away like I wished I could. Then, on one cold, winter's evening, my entire world changes when a desperate man, one wanted for the rape and murder of a young woman in Seattle, drags me away from my diner and back to a dark place that I never wanted to go again. My kidnapper calls himself Phoenix. But I know who he really is. He's a cold-blooded murderer who would probably snuff out my life without one bit of remorse. As I remain his captive, dependent on his mercy, I have to pretend to trust him so I can try to make my escape. I'm defiant by nature; he wants me to submit. I hate the way my body reacts to him, craves him, but he considers that a victory. So one of us is going to lose this battle, and I'm not so certain the winner is going to be me....
