COLTON’S DEADLY TRAP
by Patricia Sargeant

Celebrity chef Maxwell Powell III is on a working vacation at the Colton’s exclusive Arizona resort to write a cookbook. Although Alexis Reed’s assignment as his assistant could help her career, she cannot ignore the powerful attraction sizzling between them. Just as Max is drawn to both Alexis’s candor and her beauty. But when they become targets in a series of attacks, it’s Max’s protective instincts that kick into high gear. And the terrifying realization that it’s not clear who the perpetrator is really after—Max or the woman he’d guard with his life.


HOSTAGE SECURITY
by Lisa Childs

After five years behind bars for a crime he didn’t commit, Josh Stafford gets a fresh start as a security specialist. When work takes him to his ex-fiancée’s jewelry store, he does everything he can to keep his distance. And then the son he’s never met is kidnapped… Josh understands why Natalie Croft doesn’t trust him. He broke his promises to her and couldn’t tell her why. He’s ready to push emotions aside until their little boy is safe—no matter how much he still loves her.


THE TWIN’S BODYGUARD
by Veronica Forand

For Zoe Goodwyn, dog-sitting for her twin shouldn’t be a life-or-death situation. But when she’s mistaken for her hard-hitting journalist sister, security specialist Noah Casey stops the kidnapper. And designates himself her bodyguard to keep her safe. Zoe knows the only way to catch the culprit is to use herself as bait—endangering her life and her heart. Their heated attraction is almost as overwhelming as the current threats, even with Noah vowing to protect her. But will this well-meaning mission lead to deadly consequences?


BREAKING THE CODE
by Maria Lokken

Widow Mallory Stanton is finally free of an abusive marriage—but not from the danger her dead husband left behind. When a missing hard drive leaves her young daughter’s life threatened, the desperate mom turns to Rafe Ramirez, a cyber security expert and her first love. Rafe vows to expose the culprit…even as he struggles to keep his romantic feelings—and secrets—in check. But with an unknown assailant closing in and Rafe’s own past transgressions revealed, will their reunion end in tragedy?
