Hope Landing

Two wary souls get a second chance at love. If a killer doesn't find them first. When a stalker turns to murder, pilot Kelli Spencer needs protection. What she doesn't need is her old love Jack Reese returning to stir things up, but the former Navy SEAL and his team of protection specialists are the best of the best. Trust him with her life? If she has to. Trust him with her heart? No way. The last time Jack left, he made it clear married life held no appeal. Ten years later, he wastes no time letting her know he hasn't changed. Not that she'd be fool enough to hope. As the commander of Knight Tactical, Jack jumps at the chance to protect Kelli and take down a killer, but as soon as she's safe, he plans to shake the dust of the small mountain town off his feet again... until he realizes he never should have left the first time. Can he convince Kelli to give him another chance, or will a devious killer destroy his plans for a happily ever after?

Long-buried secrets lead to murderous resentments. When a sniper's bullet narrowly misses cafe owner Lauren Lowe in her own driveway, her life spins out of control. Who'd hire a professional assassin to eliminate a church-going restaurant owner? Forced to take Lauren on the run, former SEAL Austin Daggett plans to keep her safe...and away from his own, grieving heart. As danger inches closer, their mutual attraction grows, but it's not easy for a woman with a broken past to trust a man with a shattered heart.

She's his brother's best friend. He's loved her forever, but will old secrets, and a determined killer, destroy their happy ending? Star Brannigan might know more about computers than men, but she's certain her older brother was killed because of the dangerous program he and their friends wrote years ago. And now the murderer's stalking her. There's only one man she can turn to for help, former SEAL and Knight Tactical operative Ethan Hernandez, her brother's best friend. The guy she's had a crush on since... forever, and the man she betrayed to the Feds. Hiding her betrayal was easy when they never talked, but now she's got to face facts. Nothing stays hidden forever. Protecting sweet, sassy Star should be Ethan's dream assignment, except for the killer closing in... and the secret Star's hiding. Whatever it is, he can only hope it doesn't get them both murdered.

She's too busy for love. He's allergic to commitment. They'll make the perfect pretend couple, right? Scientist Jane Farrell's new discovery might just change the world...if she lives long enough to introduce it at the World Energy Conference. After intruders break into her lab and her home, she flees to her brother's cabin outside the tiny mountain town of Hope Landing, hoping to elude the men trying to steal her technology. But fate has other ideas... With his Knight Tactical teammates marrying right and left, former SEAL Patrick Olivetti's charmed life is losing its sparkle. No longer content to be the life of the party, the no-strings-attached bachelor might have to re-think his choices. But all that stops when he finds an intruder in his cabin, a beautiful woman with professional killers on her trail. To protect her while they hunt down the killers, Patrick-Mr. No Strings Attached-is going to have to play the doting fiance. But who's going to protect his heart from a woman who's everything he wants...and nothing he deserves?
