Taking down a Mexican drug cartel was never on Callie's bucket list. But when a distraught mother came into the clinic where she worked, panicked because her little girl had been abducted by one of the deadliest drug cartels, Callie knew she couldn't turn her back on them. Unfortunately, the cost of interfering was for her to forfeit the life she had come to love. Rescuing the little girl was the right thing to do, but rescuing herself when she became their captive instead, proved more difficult. But escape she did and with the help of a kindly priest Callie eventually made her way back to the United States. Arriving back home and seeing members of the San Letas drug cartel lurking around her family home, she realized the danger sheand theywere still in. Seeking the help of a federal agency, she was quickly placed into witness protection. But after giving up everything that meant the most to her, someone within the agency betrayed her. Suddenly Callie was forced to run, knowing that the very people she was supposed to trust had turned on her. Travis Johanson loved being a police officer. There was something to be said for the calm ins and outs of a small town police department. He had a wonderful group of friends and had met a woman he enjoyed spending time with...when she wasn't pushing him away. There was something about her, though, that drew him to her so he was willing to be patient and allow her to take things at her own pace. Until Callie didn't show up for work one day and he knew that something was seriously wrong. Now he just had to track her down and convince her to let him help. But would she let him?

And just as dangerous to his heart. Sasha learned from watching her mother to never sacrifice her dreams for anyone—only to discover how empty life could be without the man she loved. Now cast in Xander’s latest movie, she needs his insight to play the part, but secretly hopes for a second chance. Xander has built emotional walls to keep Sasha at a distance, but their physical attraction can’t be denied. When a stalker’s threats intensify, Xander moves Sasha into his house to keep her safe. Before long she's back in his bed and making inroads in his life. But when the danger passes and the movie wraps, Sasha and Xander face a familiar choice—put career first or give love a fighting chance.

Averie is terrified of anything remotely scary, but when she finds herself short of cash, she has no choice but to work on the catering staff at the creepy historic Faulkner mansion.

Together, they must uncover the truth about the Faulkner family and try and stop the murders. But as Averie and Quillan grow closer, the stakes are higher than they expected.

The British Hurt Locker. In the Iraq War, Cpt Kevin Ivison defused bombs and IEDs left by the Taliban. Each time he took the 'longest walk' to a bomb, it could have been his last. How many times can a man stare death in the face before he breaks? Even the most skilful operators can only roll the dice so many times before they get unlucky . . . This was my bomb, my task and my fate alone. There was nothing left to do but walk. When two of his colleagues are killed by a roadside bomb in Iraq, young bomb disposal officer Kevin Ivison is called in to defuse a second, even deadlier bomb just a hundred yards from the bodies of his friends. To make things worse, the entire area is under fire from snipers, and a crowd of angry Iraqis have begun to hurl petrol bombs... With little chance of living through this impossible task, Kevin leaves final messages for his loved ones and sets out alone towards the bomb that he is sure will be the last thing he sees. In this gut-wrenching and terrifying true story of heroism and survival, Kevin Ivison explains why he chose to be a bomb disposal expert in the first place, how he found the courage to face his death, and the unendurable stress that has given him nightmares ever since. An absorbing, honest, true story of life on the front lines in the Iraq War. Perfect for fans of The Hurt Locker, Sniper One and Bomb Hunters.
