A dangerous stalker is the least of Rockford Security's most sought after bodyguard's problems when he accepts a job that dredges up unsettling memories of his past. Bizarre message and hangup calls are par for the course for a country star like Jan Winters, but when a devious stalker gets too close, Jan's producer hires Las Vegas' best personal protection - Dino Machiavelli. Despite the threats to her safety, Jan doesn't want a babysitter and especially not one with whom she has a tumultuous past. What should have been an easy job for Dino turns dangerous when the stalker's activity escalates proving that the threat could be deadly. Dino and Jan must work closely to uncover the identity of the stalker, but as the spark between them flares, so does uncertainty. Someone close to Jan is telling lies and they don't know who they can trust, maybe not even each other. Just as Dino thinks he has his man, a sinister twist proves that things are never as they seem and one simple mistake could cause him to lose everything. NOTE: This book was previously published with the same title under my pen name Lee Anne Jones.
