One horrible, amazing night she's never managed to erase—ending with his leap from her bedroom window. Now, she'll be forced to rely on TJ—a confirmed flight risk, to find the stalker who wants her out of the picture. TJ's best friend extracted only one promise—stay away from his sister. Maintaining several continents between them has worked just fine. When their paths unexpectedly cross again, he needs to believe his intentions are only to keep Alyssa safe.

MaryJo Mullaney is out on a limb. High in a tree in the middle of a gusting rainstorm. No glasses. No shoes. No coat. Rescuing her cat, Jack—who doesn't realize he needs rescuing. Banker by day, hacker by night, she's given up on the male species. Except Jack. Coding his next blockbuster software release, millionaire developer Travis Lockwood, discovers a spy perched in the tree outside his second floor window. A rival developer out for a little espionage. This time he'll take matters into his own hands. Rescuing MaryJo is a breath of fresh air for the workaholic loner. Convincing the beautiful hacker that a hot, no-strings affair is better than a relationship may prove challenging. Because MaryJo has rules. Specifically, a seven-date-rule . When corporate espionage morphs into threats against MaryJo, they will battle a faceless enemy bent on destruction. At his company . . . or MaryJo's life. OUT ON A LIMB is about accepting yourself—and remaining true to your beliefs, no matter what everyone else thinks. MaryJo Mullaney has always considered herself only average. Best friend to too many guys, she's given up on finding the one. Happy with who she is, she's accepted a life as 'favorite aunt' and cat mom. Until she falls for Travis—literally.

Out of Options . . . Shannon McCarty has made several mistakes in her life. But, none worse than the torture she inflicted on the man who destroyed her family. The thirst for revenge she felt as a lost, seventeen-year-old has muted as she looks back on it at thirty. Now, she wonders whether she made a broken man's life even worse.

After thirteen years of isolation . . . of living with his guilt, of never allowing himself joy. Pleasure. Hope. Curt finally knows what he wants. Shannon McCarty has given him back his life. More than anything, he'd like to share it with her. Falling in love with her long-ago enemy was never in the plan. Now, Shannon lives in fear of discovery. What will Curtis think when he learns her true identity? When he discovers she was responsible for making the most unbearable time of his life . . . even worse. Forgiving himself has taken more than a decade. Forgiving her might take a lifetime.
