Stalked by an admirer with deadly intentions … Addison's sightless world is filled with the colour of music as she successfully navigates a demanding career as a renowned cellist. She doesn’t have time for the dark and dangerous security guy from her building who constantly shadows her every move, yet she can’t seem to escape him. A rough childhood, followed by decades spent as a gun-for-hire mercenary has shaped Daniel into a killer. As he tries to adapt to civilian life, he channels his dark impulses into his work as a security specialist for a billionaire businessman.

Nikita lives on the beautiful Canadian prairies with her twelve-year-old son and special little dog. Nikita has an unholy affinity for books (especially erotica), wine, animals and anything chocolate. Despite some of the darker themes in her books (which are pure fun and fantasy!), Nikita is a staunch feminist and advocate of equal rights for all races, genders and non-gender specific persons. When she isn't writing, dreaming about writing or talking about writing, she helps others discover a love of reading and writing through literacy and social work. Almost as much as reading - ALL THE BOOKS EVERYWHERE!!! - Nikita enjoys writing them. After a lifetime of writing thousands of pages of sexy fiction like a psycho romance stalker on speed, Nikita has decided to share her stories for like minded crazies that want to devour the pages as fast as they’re written. Nikita has been writing for many years and is excited to share the thought bubbles that pour out of her brain with her fellow dark romance fans. Please feel free to drop her an email if you feel like chatting, she enjoys talking with like minded romance fiends as much as she enjoys reading, writing and drinking wine on her deck in the summer!
