Tanner expects to deal with a scared, spoiled rich girl. What he finds instead is a smart, independent-minded woman—and a passion so hot it threatens to consume them both. This sexy, exciting book is the first in Sandra Marton’s brand new S.T.U.D. series. Warning! You’re about to meet the heroes of your dreams!

Chayton Olivieri is a Special Ops warrior. Danger and risk are in his blood. He can’t imagine any other kind of life. Bianca Bellini Wilde is a psychologist. She lives a carefully organized life. She can’t understand anyone who doesn’t. To say these two are like oil and water doesn’t even come close. The only thing they have in common is one night of incredible passion… that, and the fact that nobody but Chay can save Bianca from a brutal stalker.

Declan Sanchez is a Special Ops warrior. At six feet two inches he has the black-as-midnight eyes of his Colombian father and the chestnut-shot-with-gold hair of his Irish-American mother.

But she’s inexperienced and he senses that rushing her would be a mistake. That’s okay. He’ll wait. He’ll do anything for the woman he’s starting to think of as his Annie. But Annie has a secret...A secret that will convince Declan she played him for a fool. He swears he's done with her. And he is...until it turns her that only Dec can save her from a hideous fate. What will he risk to save her? His life? His honor? His heart?
