    About this ebook

    THEIR SECOND CHANCE

    As if discovering a dead body in the university library and becoming a killer's next target weren't stressful enough, librarian Celia Viramontes's bodyguard was none other than Detective Danny Rodriguez, the man who'd stolenand brokenher teenaged heart. Could she now trust him with her life?

    COULD BE THEIR LAST

    For Danny, being with Celia 24/7 was like a dreamand a nightmare. Every time he looked at her, Danny was reminded of the tough choices he'd made in the past, choices that had hurt Celia to the core. But if a criminal thought he'd control whatever happened between them in the future, he was wrong dead wrong.
