“No, really. I mean, I’ve never tried it, but I’ll bet I could achieve that with one of those rabbit vibrator things they sell on television at three in the morning. But I can’t drink beer and watch
Star Trek
with any other loser that happens across my path.”

“Yeah, that’s true. And there aren’t many other guys who would be impressed by your ability to belch the alphabet,” he said, rubbing his chin as if pondering something important. “Plus you snore, so that’s going to be off-putting to most people.”

“And you leave the toilet seat up, don’t hold doors open for girls and constantly make me pick up the check when we go out for dinner.”

“Yeah, we really are just the worst kind of people,” he said. “I guess it would really be doing everyone else a favor if you just caved and agreed to be with me forever.”

“I suppose it would be like a humanitarian effort, huh? Do you think we could get some kind of award?” I asked, leaning forward to kiss him.

“I think I just got mine.”

by Kris Norris

If two’s company and three’s a crowd, then four is bound to be…deadly.

Special Agent Reese Bailey has a new assignment…one not under the jurisdiction of the federal bureau. She’s been hired to identify the person trying to kill the members of one of the hottest rock bands hitting the charts, and three of the hottest men she’s ever laid eyes on. Keeping her distance would be hard if she wasn’t certain they’d come to the same conclusion as all her past encounters…she’s just too different to make the cut.

Mace, Nash and Landon aren’t sure what to think of the incredibly smart federal agent who walks into their life, and into their hearts, they only know she’s the one they’ve been waiting for. It’s clear she’s a professional, not to mention a child protégé who can read their body language while figuring projectile paths in her head. And she’s not one to mix duty with pleasure.

But they aren’t taking no for an answer, not when their souls are on the line. Reese proves to be everything they've ever imagined and more. But the stakes are higher than any of them realize and if she can’t track down the stalker in time, the boys won’t be the only ones playing for keeps.

Kristyn seems to be the answer to all their problems. She wears drab clothes, is a junior high teacher and loves gardening. But she’s a lot more than that. As the weeks pass, and she slowly reveals the woman hiding behind the façade she’s carefully built over the years, the two men realize they were very, very wrong.

She’s going to rock their worlds…in more ways than one
