All he had was a security badge from an unknown business and a duffle bag full of money. I was supposed to find his past for him.

I didn’t expect to run into an aura reading, spiritual spouting, alien believing woman who would make it completely impossible for me to stay on task. Karma Meyers was one of the most beautiful women I’d ever met, but she had more secrets than the aliens she was trying to prove existed. Book 5: Amelia How cliché is it, a woman in love with her boss? I hate clichés, but who wouldn’t fall for a guy like Hayden Dubois? He wanted the world to think he was made of stone, but everyone knew about the grief he suffered at the death of his love. What was it about grief that made a man more of a romantic figure? That was until Rowan McGregor walked into my life. Covered in blood and demanding protection, he insisted that the woman found dead in his bed was not there by his own hand. Having the blood of an innocent woman on his hands didn’t stop him from being a cocky ass who thought he knew everything about me with one glance at the fangirl pics on my fridge. I hated him, hated everything about him, but then we were on the run, dependent on one another, acting as husband and wife, and…what is it they say? One thing led to another… Book 6: Hayden Nope.
