Synopsis

My home is trashed, my roommate is dead, and the police think I was the intended target.

No one should have a grudge against a meditation-loving yoga teacher, but my bank-robbing father’s associates seem to believe that I know where he hid his missing fortune... and they’ll do anything to get their hands on it.

Gruff giant Kade Campbell is determined to protect me, but I don’t want him in the firing line. The rugged former special forces soldier may be a badass—and able to give me butterflies like nobody’s business—but he isn’t immune to bullets.

I’ve lost almost everyone I’ve ever cared about, and Kade’s life isn’t a price I’m willing to pay for my own safety. But he’s just as stubborn as I am, and soon our lives aren’t the only things on the line—our hearts are too.

A. Rivers writes romance with strong heroes and heroines who kick butt and take names. She loves MMA fighters, military men, bodyguards, private investigators, and the protective guy next door who isn't afraid to fight the odds for love.

When she isn't writing, she enjoys reading, baking, running, and eating vast quantities of chocolate (hence the running). In a previous life, she was a competitive martial artist, and now she uses that experience to fuel her stories.
