The Agent Next Door — Adrienne Bell

Erin Holliday has worked hard to build the perfect life: beautiful house, safe neighborhood, trusted friends. But everything she cherishes is threatened when the new neighbor moves in. As the daughter of a slain motorcycle gang leader, Erin knows what trouble looks like -- she's spent a lifetime trying to avoid it -- and John Ryman certainly fits the bill. Her head tells her to keep her distance, but her heart has other plans.

Ex-Navy SEAL John Ryman has spent his whole career surrounded by danger. Now he's ready to settle down, and a quiet suburban life will suit him just fine, if his gorgeous new neighbor is any indication.

But when a previous mistake has explosive consequences, John and Erin are thrown together, and it doesn't take long for them to realize that the only way they'll survive to build a future together will by settling the debts of their past.
