His rock star brother Jaxon will be performing, and Damian wants to see the show. But things heat up fast when he runs into a gorgeous brunette who turns out to be the grown up senator’s daughter he knew as a kid. Elena Mitchell—senator’s daughter and undercover CIA agent—is stunned when her secret teenage crush shows up at her father’s fundraising party. She gets over the surprise fast, though, and takes advantage of the situation—and him—as a chance to scratch that long-standing itch. When Elena is kidnapped from the party by a Colombian drug lord set on revenge against her father, Damian and his SEAL team are assigned rescue duty. He’s determined to save her, despite her exasperating need to save herself. But the mission goes bad and Damian and Elena are forced to hide in the jungles of Colombia to await rescue. Just when they think they’ll get out alive, all hell breaks loose and both their lives hang in the balance. When Elena’s recaptured and tortured, she realizes for the first time ever she may not be able to save herself. She faces her mortality believing Damian is dead and wishes they could have made a future together. But it takes more than a couple of bullets to kill a SEAL, and Damian’s hell bent on saving the women who stole his heart. less

Rather than fangirling over him, she treats him like a real person, and they make a deal--she’ll teach him about the world outside the celebrity bubble, and he’ll show her how to loosen up and enjoy life. But when Jaxon’s muse shows up again out of the blue, he has to make a choice: return to the life of a rock star, or make a new home with the woman he loves. less

Instead, she finds herself trapped between two bears, and discovers a shadowy shifter world she never imagined. Bishop Caine is a bear shifter. A loner in a world of clans, feuds, and territories, he lives in a cabin in the Pineywoods and keeps to himself. Abandoned by his mother at a young age, he grew up with a father who hated what he was. His only real clan is his five brothers. When a beautiful woman wanders into his territory and is threatened by another bear shifter, Bishop steps in to save her, triggering a confrontation with a neighboring clan. His intention is to protect her, but she awakens something in his lonely heart. For Vanessa, the shifter world echoes the stories her shaman grandmother has told her, and that Vanessa always rejected as myth. Those myths become far too real when she finds herself trapped by shifter law and forced to choose between two bears. She picks Bishop, but having won one battle, the stakes increase when Bishop and Vanessa are sent on a mission as part of their judgment. If they refuse, Bishop faces imprisonment—or worse—execution, and Vanessa will be handed over to the hillbilly bear eager to get his hands on her. less
