The Guardians Series

Cheyenne Elias has inherited a child. A boy she doesn’t know and doesn’t particularly want; a boy whose mother was once Cheyenne’s most hated person in the world. There are a million reasons to walk away: Her anger, her past, her certainty that there is nothing benevolent in this act by a woman who almost killed her. But abandoning the boy to a system she barely survived is not an option.

When the boy who broke her heart crashes back into Ruby Jones’ life, she’s determined to give him the boot. There are some things a girl simply can’t forgive, and being forgotten is at the top of the list. The last person CIA Agent Rafferty Blackheart expects to find while retrieving the message left for him by his dead partner is the girl he left behind two decades earlier. But the woman he discovers bears little resemblance to the girl he remembers, and even though the sight of her breathes life into everything he’s spent years fleeing.

After Ellie Broussard saves Sean McDougal’s son from drowning, she walks away, unwilling to involve herself with the rakish Irishman and his charming boy. Ellie has suffered a devastating loss, and her world is one of chosen isolation and calculated vengeance. Sean can relate. Having lost his wife to cancer, his sole focus has become raising his boy. Love can take a long walk. He’s in Louisiana to locate a cache of stolen art. But when they’re thrown together on an assignment to recover the cache, Sean and Ellie have no choice but to put aside their mutual misgivings.

When psychic medium Thea Marlie’s young protégé, Drew, goes missing, she knows there’s only one man for the job: FBI Special Agent Max Prescott. But Thea and Max have an ugly history, and asking him for help means confronting the darkest time of her life. FBI Agent Max Prescott has been waiting for the moment when the only woman he ever loved would need him. He’s ready to face the past and accept its consequences, to do whatever it takes to win Thea back, even if he fears some things are too terrible to forgive. Thea wants only to forget while Max is determined to start anew.
