Until he fell hard for the wrong woman—his best friend’s baby sister. Krysta Sokolofski has been in love with the same man since she was a teenager. For a brief time, he held more than her heart in his hands. Until he pushed her away. A dirty secret he wanted distance from. It took her years to move on.

Ex-cop Maxwell Fear knows all too well what can happen to a witness of a violent crime—which is why he has no choice but to protect her. Sloane Robertson is no longer the woman he met at a dinner party, or the woman he kissed at the front door. She’s a client, a job, nothing more than a person who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong damn time.

When the divorced mother of the groom goes head-to-head with the single father of the bride, they might be the next couple experiencing a heart-to-heart. When my son asked me to take his ticket for the honeymoon that didn’t happen, I balked. What would I do on a 10-day vacation in Belize?

Ex-Cop Paxton “Tank” Sokolofski’s life is shattered—first by a bullet, then by a woman. Now he passes his days tracking down cheating spouses. Not his idea of a good time.

The vegan diet, which excludes all forms of animal products, is a subject of much debate. On one hand, it is associated with several health benefits, such as a lower risk of heart disease, obesity, type-2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer due to its high content of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. It also promotes mindful eating and can lead to weight loss and reduced food costs. Moreover, many choose a vegan lifestyle for ethical reasons, to avoid animal cruelty, and to reduce their environmental impact, as plant-based diets are considered more sustainable.
