Stalkers Anonymous
by Dana Leeann
Cole Matthews definitely isn't a stalker. Probably. Sure, he used company resources and crossed some lines to have a conversation with his sister's abusive ex. But that was a one-time thing. Now, Cole has to attend a group therapy program with a long, clinical name...but the participants? They call it Stalkers Anonymous. Hailey Brigham is definitely dating the perfect man. Probably. She'd love to focus more attention on Cole, the smoking hot, ex-military sweetheart whose idea of a casual second date is tandem skydiving. But a drug-seeking patient at the ER where she's a second-year resident knows too much about Hailey's personal life, and his fixation on her is getting harder to ignore. When threats against Hailey escalate, Cole's protective instincts go into overdrive. To keep her safe, he would do anything--even if it means becoming the monster he's kept so carefully locked up inside.

Drawn Together
by Mercedes Ron
Twenty-year-old Marfil Corts lives the kind of life people imagine from afar. The daughter of a powerful businessman, she spends her days juggling Columbia classes, stolen hours at her ballet studio, and glittering nights in New York City. Her world feels untouchable--polished, predictable, safe. Until the afternoon she's abducted in Central Park. Days later, Marfil opens her eyes in a hospital in New Orleans with no memory of what happened. There are no demands, no suspects, no explanation, only fear and the unsettling certainty that she is no longer safe. In the wake of the attack, her father tightens security and assigns her a bodyguard: Sebastian Moore. Sebastian is controlled, distant, unreadable--a man whose discipline borders on dangerous. His quiet intensity unsettles and infuriates Marfil in equal measure, stirring resentment toward his presence, his rules, his unyielding watchfulness. Yet as the threat surrounding her refuses to fade, Sebastian becomes the one person she cannot escape...and the one she cannot stop wanting.
