When the Road Opens
Niki Matthews
Ten years ago, Lauren walked away from Grant. Now a Colorado blizzard may be the only thing keeping them alive. Lauren never expected to see Grant again. Not after the way they ended. Not after ten years of silence, regret, and a life built around pretending she'd moved on. Then a brutal winter storm leaves them stranded together in an isolated Colorado cabin. With the roads buried beneath feet of snow and no way off the mountain, there's nowhere to run, from the past, from the attraction that never completely disappeared, or from the feelings neither of them is ready to admit survived. But the storm isn't their only problem. Someone is watching. What begins as an unexpected second chance quickly becomes something far more dangerous. Someone wants Lauren found, and the snow-covered road outside the cabin is the only thing standing between them and whoever is coming. Grant will do whatever it takes to protect her. Lauren must decide whether she can trust the man who once broke her heart. And every day, the snow melts a little more. Because when the road opens, they won't be alone anymore. When the Road Opens is a steamy, second-chance romantic suspense about lost love, forced proximity, buried secrets, and two people who may have one last chance at the future they should have had all along.

The Last Defense
K.C. Mitchell
A reckless cowboy. A woman who refuses to be impressed. An enemy patiently waiting in the shadows. Corbin “Blaze” Lucas has always thrived on danger. With his cocky grin and take-no-prisoners attitude, he’s never met a risk he couldn’t handle. Until the danger—one he never could have imagined—starts following him home. What begins as pranks quickly turns deadly as the threats escalate. For the first time, Corbin realizes he may not be able to outmaneuver the enemy. Forced into hiding at a safehouse ranch, Corbin clashes with owner Raleigh Whitaker—a sharp-tongued psychologist who refuses to be charmed by his swagger or fooled by his defenses. She sees the man beneath the mask… and she’s not letting him hide behind his charm. But as tension ignites into something deeper, the danger finds them. Because the enemy hunting Corbin isn’t stopping. And when the truth finally comes to light, it won’t just destroy his defenses…It will unravel everything he thought he knew about himself.
