Final Surrender — Jennifer Kacey

Without trust, their hearts--and their lives--don't stand a chance in hell.

Ten years ago, Angela Meyers told everyone she went to New York to find herself. It was a lie. She fled from the aftermath of one hot night with Clay Waters. A night filled with wet heat, all-consuming releases...then his regret. Now, with a stalker threatening to destroy her career, there's only one man she trusts to protect her. The man she still loves, hates, needs with every breath she takes. It's not that Clay never craved his best friend's younger sister. With a ticket to boot camp burning a hole in his pocket, he couldn't allow himself to love her. The moment he lays eyes on her again, the old need-to take down her tightly wound hair, press her long, lean body to his-surges inside him stronger than ever. But this is no ordinary bodyguard assignment. The best way to identify the voice in Angela's shadow is to lure it into the light of day. Even if it means convincing her to trust him with her heart...and surrendering his own.

Warning: When an ex-Marine reunites with his best friend's younger sister, explosive sex is a given. So are explosive secrets. You may never look at a pair of Snoopy pajama pants the same way again.
