It's been over a year since Emily escaped hell, but the nightmares and fear still hold her prisoner. No longer the good-time party girl, she's retreated from life, burying herself in work and Ben & Jerry's until a wedding forces her out of her self-induced isolation and into the path of Spokane vice detective, Camden Shaw. On the verge of a career making bust, Camden is ready to celebrate more than his brother's pending nuptials. Putting his life on the line every day has taught him not to take a single moment for granted, especially not one spent with a beautiful woman, but he knows all too well the toll his job can take on a relationship. He prefers to keep things light and easy, avoiding all attachments and commitments, but the pretty blonde with the tortured blue eyes calls to something in him, tempting them both toward a future they'd given up on. When the bullets start flying, Camden has to figure out who's targeting him before the people he cares about get caught in the crossfire and Emily once again becomes a target for a madman.

Author · 7 books

Stephanie is a New Adult romance author who debuted her first series in Spring of 2014, but her love affair with books began at an early age. She consumed them from the moment she learned to read, loving nothing more than to get lost in the fictional worlds that came to life on the pages. Creating her own stories was something she always enjoyed but never pursued until she wrote Finding Ever After, her first novel. It has been a dream come true ever since. She has many passions outside books, including hiking, traveling, drawing, painting, design, baking and cake decorating. Prior to the release of her first novel, she was running her own bakery and cake shop in the small coastal town where she was born and raised and returned home to after moving away for college. Becoming an author has been an incredible journey, one she hopes never ends.
