Harlequin Intrigue brings you two exciting stories from USA Today Best Selling author Janie Crouch in one collection!

PROTECTIVE ASSIGNMENT
He’s not the man he used to be
He’s the man she needs now

Cade Thatcher is on his way to a mountain retreat when he picks up a hitchhiker. Skittish and withdrawn, River Robertson is obviously running from something. Cade is supposed to be rehabilitating from injuries he endured in Afghanistan, not taking on new duties. But he feels responsible for River, and his instinct to protect her overrides his fears about what he can do with his shattered body. When the cult leader obsessed with River tracks her down, Cade will push himself to the limits to keep her safe.

PROTECTIVE WARRIOR
She helps wounded warriors heal.
He wants her to heal herself.

Psychologist Sarah Peterson is proud of her work with traumatized veterans. She knows how to handle PTSD—even when it’s her own. Her boss, Lawson Davies, isn’t so sure. The former CIA operative wants her to take some time off. His insistence that she get away only intensifies when a crime boss who’s trafficking women threatens revenge on everyone at Warrior Peak Sanctuary. Are Lawson’s motives purely professional, or is his desire to keep Sarah out of harm’s way motivated by the irresistible connection they share?

From Harlequin Intrigue: Fast-paced investigations, relentless danger, and fierce protectors who stop at nothing—where justice leads the chase and unexpected sparks raise every stake.
