When former barrel racer Cheyenne McCafferty left the circuit, she left her past behind too. Now, as part owner of Lavender Blue farm, she’s content rescuing and rehabbing horses, and growing a new business. She’s only got one regret: letting go of Wyatt Reed. When he professed his love, she was too young and foolish to know her heart. After that he disappeared. But when his beloved horse turns up on the auction block, Chey makes a bid and wins more than she bargained for . . . Chey believed she was ready to face Wyatt again, to explain herself. But seeing the man he’s become, she’s unsure. Gone is the quiet, gentle boy she knew. In his place is a rugged, confident adventurer who’s seen the world.

Book excerpt: A special forces operator who knows what he wants. A woman who will blow all his expectations apart. Marine Raider Tony Garcia holds himself to the highest standards. He expects no less from the women he dates. Polished, sophisticated, organized. He has a type and he’s happy to stick to it. But fate has a wicked sense of humor when it sends Bridget Sullivan veering into his path. Bridget is the epitome of unconventional. She’s a nerdy, foul-mouthed force of nature, and after her last experience in dating became a police investigation, she’s sworn off men. Especially ones who have the nerve to toss her over his shoulder to keep her from trouble. One who wouldn’t know fun if it came up and bit him on the butt. If Tony would stop being so dang sweet, if he didn’t fill out his shirt quite so well, then maybe she wouldn’t have such a hard time keeping her hands to herself. But when strange events start to swirl around Bridget, Tony will do everything in his power to keep the infuriating woman safe. Mysterious fires. Unexplained noises. Eerie lights in the night. It’s as though an unseen force is determined to tear her world apart. And that’s only the beginning of their trouble. Because something even more dangerous lurks in the shadows, and it’s set its sights on Bridget… Meet the men of Alpha Squad. Protective, strong-willed, and tough, they go hard after what they want. And when they set their sights on a woman, they’ll use every weapon in their arsenal to make her theirs. Each book in this series is a fast, steamy read, full of pulse-pounding action and sexy times.

And his hotness. Pretending to ignore the Raider while he pushes all her buttons has become her own personal Olympic sport, and she’s determined to take gold. But when a stalker sets his sights on Samantha, Chris will do everything in his power to protect the only woman who’s ever gotten under his skin.
