Her life - and her son's - were in his hands.For single mother Kirsten McCourt, small-town life changed instantly the night she overheard - on her baby monitor! - thugs ordering a hit. But she could never imagine the undercover cop on the case would be the man with whom she'd shared one night of soul-searing passion - and a son...a son she'd kept secret from the man she'd never stopped loving. Garrett Weisz had no choice but to use Kirsten and her son to bait a killer. Despite the danger, he claimed he was no hero. But if he learned Christo was his boy, too, could he learn to be a father? Assuming he kept his new family safe long enough to try...

When undercover cop Matt Guiliani arrived at the Bar Naught ranch in the dead of night to sting a vigilante leader, he got the biggest surprise of his career: His prey was already dead... and Matt was staring down the double-barreled shotgun of the beautiful and frightened Fiona Halsey.With a sinfully sexy body and sass to spare, Fiona was no innocent. But how she was connected with the murder or the secret organization, Matt wasn't sure. He only knew that Fiona was the one woman to scale the walls of his impenetrable defenses. Yet to let down his guard in this assignment, with Fiona, would be costly. Because this time it would mean his heart...if not his life.
