Isolated by her special talent, Erica Stevens is resigned to live out her life alone. Focused on her art, she gives back to the community in her own special way when she can. But fate has other plans for her and sends her a hero in the form of a gentleman Texas Ranger. A divorced, single parent Lieutenant Vince Cooper is disillusioned with love although he hasn't given up the search for his one, his perfect match. Along the way he has developed a firm belief in the distinct roles of a man and his woman and won't have it any other way. He meets quirky Erica Stevens during an investigation and instantly sees something special. Thrust into the midst of a murder investigation, Erica finds herself a psychic witness to the crime and Vince must keep her safe, even if that means taking her over his knee when the situation warrants. Surrounded by intrigue, conspiracy and violence can the heated attraction grow into more between these two unlucky lovers? And can it survive the mysteries of her gift?

Maddie Taylor
Author · 53 books

USA Today and #1 International Bestselling multi-genre author of #1 series such as Primarian Mates (sci-fi), The Jackson Brothers (historical western), and Club Decadence (contemporary ). Maddie is a lifelong reader who became a romance junkie as a teen with her first romance novel, The Wolf and the Dove by Kathleen Woodiwiss. From then on, she was hooked and gobbled up everything she could get her hands on, whether contemporary, historical, paranormal, or sci-fi. If there was romance to be found between a strong alpha male, and a sassy, adventurous, and ofttimes defiant yet loving woman, Maddie was all over it. As an author, she stays true to those themes writing steamy erotic romance, with a side of kink, and adding elements of intrigue, danger, and suspense to her plots. Maddie started writing as a hobby. Her stories stayed private while she raised a family and worked full time as a registered nurse. It wasn't until 2012 that she decided to take the plunge and submit her first book for publication: Captain My Captain. She went on to publish eleven novels the first year and has over 25 published works to date.
