Alice "Ali" Baker had it all. She had an amazing loving family, a big brother to follow everywhere, and a neighbor who made her heart burst from desire. See, Raphael Romero was all she ever wanted since she was in diapers, and that's not even an exaggeration. From the moment she laid eyes on him, she was by his side constantly. Their families were always joking that they'll get married one day...it wasn't a joke for them. It was a fact they both knew. Well, we all know what happens with plans done in your teenage years - they change, and it's expected...in a way. What Ali didn't expect is for her life to turn on its head and destroy her piece by piece. The bad news: the one who could glue her together didn't even know where she was. The worst news: even if he found her, she wasn't sure he'll be able to fix her... "The Bursting Heat" is Book 2 of the "SWAT Team" series. It can be read as a stand-alone.

Emily "Lily" Wilson had a tough life. With no family to help her, she was used to do everything on her own. She raised herself, she thought herself how to cook, and felt in love with baking. Her dream was to open her own place, where she can share her love for the sweet stuff with the others. That was why she was at the bank that day. She expected to persuade them to have trust in her idea and let her a loan. What she didn't expect was being shot at, nor she expected a hot man, covered from head to toes in black, to safe her. And she definitely didn't expect that man to make himself a permanent place in her life, with his dog right beside him. But like everything in her life, even this hottie couldn't keep her safe from all the bad that was trying to catch her at every corner. He for sure will try his best, but will it be enough? "The Sweetest Thing" is Book 1 of the "SWAT Team" series. It can be read as a stand-alone.

I can't keep the smile off my face as I take my seat on the plane. I slide my bag under the seat and lean back. I close my eyes and let a blissful smile grace my face. He said I wouldn't be able to run. As if. I'm vaguely aware of someone taking the seat next to mine, but I pay no attention to said person. "So where we headed?" I choke on my own spit as my eyes fly open and whirl around to face the owner of the familiar voice. His eyes are hidden behind those damn sunglasses and a rather smug smile graces his face. I continue choking and he does nothing other than flip through a magazine. That smug smile never leaving his face. "You still haven't answered the question." "To hell." I finally manage to choke out. "Awesome," He flips a page in the magazine, "It's about time I returned home. You know, bodies to burn, lost souls to torture, I've missed it. It'll be fun." *** Nicolette Moore. A name law enforcement agencies across the world know. Though no one's ever seen the face of the world's greatest thief and hacker, everyone knows who she is by name. Nicky. She's an absolute genius. Once upon a time she wasn't the best person in the world. When her family was struggling she made some bad choices to help them through it, but when she tried to get out she got pulled in deeper. Ryder Stevenson. He's the son of the director of the FBI, and an FBI Agent himself. He's the one who brings in Nicky to get her protection from the people chasing after her. He's also the one, who gets assigned to protect her. Neither one of them like each other, and they can't go five minutes without getting in a full blown argument. She's constantly ditching him only for him to show up later and prove to her he's not that easy to get rid of. They're stuck with each other whether they like it or not. But he doesn't know who she really is. What will he do when he finds out? An FBI Agent protecting THE Hacker. The one the FBI have been after for years...this just screams chaos.
