**STANDALONE with NO Cliffhanger**

My name's Conner - although some people call me Rock, for obvious reasons. When The Seven went to ground I came here to Florida. A little fun in the sun, a whole lot of willing female tourists to bed, and guys itching to be trained for MMA.

I'll admit it was getting a little boring. Then she showed up. Jazz Boudreaux. Five foot ten inches of bad ass, bounty hunter, warrior woman. I figured to have her in my bed inside of 24 hours and then move on to whoever was next in line.

Only Jazz isn't just a random woman who has appeared in my life. She was sent to find me. To protect me. Seems like there are people who'd like to take what's mine and are willing to kill to get it.

Now, with a nick-name like Rock and my Shifter abilities, I'm pretty sure I can take care of myself. But she doesn't seem to think so. And as it turns out Jazz is more than just a bounty hunter turned body guard.

She's more like me that either of us realized and maybe that explains the attraction. Or maybe it's something else. Whatever it is, one (or a few) samples of her is not enough. I'm developing a real taste for Jazz.

What if you had to choose? Between existing, or losing the only reason you do exist?
The provocative sequel to A Mortal Indiscretion. Justin must meet and defeat his enemy if only to save his vampire wife, Ambra. But, can he sustain the pain and torture to make it through the hardest test of his immortal life?

Love brought them together. The world tried to tear them apart. But a Bear won’t be denied…

I’ve tried to fight it. The passion, the danger, the raw sexual attraction—it is all wrong for me to feel this way about an unavailable man. But I can’t help myself. The Christmas season is about giving and receiving, not taking. This is so not like me to feel this way, but when I’m around Tony I just can’t help myself.

The past year has been so hard. I lost a promising career that was just taking off, blackballed from the industry so no one will hire me, and I was infected with the bear shifter curse.

And sweet Derek, helping me through it all has been wonderful, and of course, I know he would like to be much more than friends… but I've never seen him that way really. But I'm so glad he invited me and my one-year-old son, Devon to vacation with his family at a beautiful ski resort for Christmas.

I tried to keep my feelings bottled up, but the flirty glances, the sweet conversations, and the way Tony looks at me when no one else is around makes it so hard…but he is with Beth, Derek’s sister. It’s so wrong.

And now someone at the lodge has been murdered. By what appears to be some sort of vicious animal… in a house full of bear shifters, I have to wonder. Could my baby and I be living with a murderer? And is the man I’m falling in love with who I think he is?
