'Remy knows he only has three days to negotiate the treacherous jungle terrain and reach the rendezvous point. With a gorgeous, hot-headed, barefoot heiress and two tiny babies in tow, what could possibly go wrong?'

'Jared Knight works for international governments together with a select group of colleagues, tracking down the worst criminals humanity has to offer.

'Despite his attraction, he vows to keep Cecilia Benedict in his past, until an unknown stalker threatens her future.

'Cecilia has been receiving letters from an admirer, one who knows far too much about her.

Cecilia finds herself intensely intrigued by this quiet man with deep grey eyes, and when they are emotionally thrown together, he becomes so much more than just her bodyguard.

'But someone is biding his time in the shadows, threatening to destroy their relationship before it can even begin.'
