Jennifer
“Jenny” Abrahams has three goals: to teach women about mixed
martial arts, become North Carolina’s first female mixed martial
arts champion, and find true love. Two things stand in her way: the
stalker intent on claiming her for himself and her emotional
insecurities.
At a crossroads in his career as a witnesses protection minder, Peter “Pete” Gandry, is given the opportunity to return to the scene of his only failure––Smithfield, North Carolina. The assignment is familiar: he must keep an eye on Diana King. He agrees, hoping it will help him find redemption and ease the guilt he feels.
Odd things begin to happen to Jenny. At first, she dismisses them as over-reacting to memories of a stalker from her past. Until, she receives an unsettling note. Four words stand out: I crave your touch . . .
Increasingly, the evidence points to someone she knows. Who can she trust? And, who is this mysterious newcomer who has ignited long buried passion within her?
When the sister of an old nemesis arrives in Smithfield, Pete is forced to expose his true identity. The town quickly turn against him and Jenny refuses to see him. Just when he thinks it can’t get worse, the stalking evidence begins to point to him.
Can he clear his name and save Jenny from the real stalker in time?

Excerpt:
She
stepped inside the room marked “Staff”. As she retrieved her
black purse from the locker, a slip of folded white notepaper fell to
the floor.
“Oops.”
She
picked it up and righted herself. As she read, she felt her eyes
bulge. Her heart leapt to her throat and stayed there. Reflex made
her drop the note, as if she’d been touching a burning coal.
She
screamed.
Nick
was at her side a moment later, “What is it? What’s wrong?”
She
managed to point to the floor. Nick crouched and scooped up the
discarded paper. She watched him skim the words.
His
gaze darted to her face, “I’m calling the police. Sit down, Jen.
You look like you’re about to pass out.”
That
was a distinct possibility. The blood felt like it had drained from
every vein in her body. She wrapped her arms across her chest in a
self-hugging gesture as she took a seat on the nearest office chair.
In
the background, she could hear Nick on the phone. “Somebody put a
note in her bag.”
The
rest of the conversation faded away as her mind repeated the words
that had been on the paper: “I crave your touch, Jennifer. One day
soon we will be together. I love you . . .”
