The Joker meets Haunting Adeline in this dark, forbidden romance where a prison nurse is caught in a dangerous web of obsession with her ruthless psychopath patient.

He’s the last person I ever wanted to see again. Callum Reece. My late husband’s brother. The man who took my virginity and then left without so much as an I’m sorry. The Marine operator who makes a living from putting his life on the line. But loving me? That had been too much of a risk.

He doesn’t know me, but he’ll die to save me. Or at least, that’s the gist I get when I’m taken hostage by a psycho with a gun. He’d meant to take a little girl, but I couldn’t live with myself if I didn’t try to save her....

Ten years ago, I broke Jack Walker’s heart without an explanation, and we’ve been bitter enemies ever since. It hasn’t been easy considering he’s my best friend’s brother, but it’s better all around if I keep my distance from the only man I’ve ever loved....

I lost everything when my family was murdered, including myself. After years of therapy and conquering my agoraphobia, all I wanted was to start over. The quiet North Carolina resort seemed like the perfect place. Until I discovered a dead body....

It was only supposed to be a fling with my brother’s best friend. The same man I’ve loved since he gave me my first kiss. I knew he was about to leave for a year, but I couldn’t let him go without showing him how I felt.

I’m caught in his crosshairs... The sole survivor of a horrific serial killer, I became someone new to escape my past...and the notoriety. A prisoner of my own fears, all I want is peace and quiet.

It started with a kiss. One that never should have happened. Liam was only doing what best friends do—standing up for me. It didn’t mean anything. Right?

I knew the moment I saw him at the front of the classroom I was in hell, because Dashiel “Dash” Hampton was the devil. Even if I didn’t need the class to graduate, there was no way I could drop it.I couldn’t give him the satisfaction.

From New York Times & USA Today bestselling author Nicole Blanchard comes More Than Friends, a trio of steamy friends-to-lovers romances filled with forbidden romance, undeniable chemistry, and the delicious tension of crossing the line.

I thought it would be simple. A strings attached arrangement with someone I trust. It doesn’t hurt that he’s a baseball God and talented in ways that involve his…’bat’.
