As the snow-covered wilderness becomes a treacherous chess board, Malice must navigate the blurred lines between allies and enemies. He is determined to uncover the truth behind the mission's unique complication.

In the Shadow World, he was the god of death, and he was called many names. The monsters he hunted called him Anubis. Those who saw his face died. To Guardian Security, he was a number - a surgical weapon they wielded against monstrous evil. One woman called him Kaeden Lang. Anubis never meant her to be anything except an interlude - a moment of light in the darkness of his life, a one-time escape from the ever-present haze of death.

It wasn’t until people started shooting at her that Eve Salutem had an inkling she was anything other than an elementary school teacher suffering from a rare form of cancer.

Jade King lives life at full speed. After over a year undercover for the DEA, she’s back in play and wants what any hot-blooded woman who’s gone a year without sex would want: an alpha bad boy who is convenient, delicious, and disposable. A fun one-night stand, multiple orgasms, and absolutely no strings attached. Right? If only.

When it comes at the hands of family, betrayal destroys lives. His reputation destroyed and career as a surgeon shattered, Harrison M. Boswell, VI, vanishes, and the alter-ego of Dr. Maliki Blue arises. His employer, Guardian Security, knows who he had been - but they are the only ones. Too bad pasts don’t stay buried.

For the assassin known as Reaper, the chances he missed were displayed in perfect resolution every time he went back. Back to her, the only woman he'd ever loved. Harmony Flinn had a chance to leave the drudgery of her small-town existence. The man she loved left her long ago, and he never came back. When presented with the chance of a lifetime, she'd grabbed onto that hope and jumped at the opportunity. Her desire to live anywhere but where she was landed her in a world she didn't recognize, with a lurking evil her past hadn't prepared her to evade.

Doctor Jeremiah Wheeler dedicated 10 years of his professional career to the population of a maximum-security penitentiary in California. A prison riot and lockdown led to a horrific hostage situation he barely managed to survive. Going back wasn't possible. He needed a change of pace, a change of scenery, and time to heal.

Peaceful. Relaxing. At least until he hit town.

For years, Guardian Security has protected the world against evil. They were an offensive weapon against monsters that sought to prey on the unprotected. Until now.

Declan Howard had it made. He owned the town’s only bar, and there was a vast ocean of women to choose from. All right, so perhaps vast was an overstatement. Hollister wasn’t New York City, but he was content. Footloose and fancy-free, he lived in the fast lane and loved it…until recently.

Thankfully, his realization came just as a strong, sexy woman entered his life. And the best part? She’s wearing a badge.

Billy Pearson’s cover for the work he did for the CIA had come at a high price. Betrayed by the CIA, he was dead to all who used to know him. Guardian gave him the opportunity to start over, but a bullet during a mission almost took that chance away from him. Worse, the person assigned to help his recovery bears an uncanny resemblance to the woman he once loved. That sucker punch left Billy raw.

The Russian woman brokered young innocents into slavery and Mike meant to destroy her and the organization she worked for.
