BLURB:
Widow Sarah Johnson struggled to pick up the pieces after her life was ripped apart. After two years of grieving, she's found contentment in her thriving business as photographer to Hollywood's A-list and in raising her angel-faced daughter, Kylee... until bodyguard and long-time friend Ethan Cooke changes everything with a searing moonlight kiss.
Sarah's world turns upside down as she struggles with her unexpected attraction to Ethan and the guilt of betraying her husband's memory. But when blue roses and disturbing notes start appearing on her doorstep, she has no choice but to lean on Ethan as he fights to save her from a stalker that won't stop until he has what he prizes most.

EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT
“I’m sorry, sir. We need to speak with Mrs. Johnson.”
Ethan saw the apology in the man’s eyes, and the sudden grief knocked him back like a heavy blow.
The men tried to move past him, but he blocked their way again. As much as he wanted a moment to catch his breath, he needed to protect Sarah more. “Don’t take another step. I get that you can’t tell me, but you’re going to give me a minute to talk to her first. She just gave birth yesterday morning. This is going to crush her.”
“We’re here to offer any support we can, sir.”
He opened the door and let them in before him. “Please, sit down. I’ll go get Sarah.” He walked from the room and started down the hall to the nursery. Stopping outside the room, he fisted his hands at his side and took a deep breath. Memories flashed through his mind, one after the other, and he braced his hands on the wall. He took another deep breath, trying to steel himself for what had quickly become the hardest moment of his life. He was about to watch Sarah’s life fall apart.
He stepped into Kylee’s room and stopped. Sarah had taken her hair from the towel. Wet ropes of smooth gold rested on her shoulders, and her eyes were closed while Kylee suckled at her breast. If this were a painting, it would be titled Beautiful Serenity. He was about to destroy it. He took another breath, walked to Sarah’s side, and knelt down, taking her hand.
