Blackwood Security vs. Baldwin's Shore

As Director of Special Projects for a global security firm, Emmy Black is well acquainted with trouble, but she didn't expect to run into a proverbial nightmare in small-town Oregon. The place is just hills and trees, right? But a quest to help an injured woman soon leaves Emmy fighting for not only her own survival but the lives of many others too. When Nine came to Baldwin's Shore, the former member of a Russian hit squad had two goals: to hide and to heal. But someone else has the same idea, and the consequences threaten to upend Nine's carefully crafted existence. With the appearance of old friends and enemies as well as a madman intent on provoking a war and-most disturbingly-an unfamiliar feeling that might be love, Nine is left with one burning question: can an assassin ever truly retire? Secret Weapon is a romantic suspense crossover between Blackwood Security and Baldwin's Shore.

Years have passed since Nico Belinsky last saw Kaylin La Rocca, but he can't forget the girl he once thought of as a sister. Or the fact that she's wanted for murder. When Emmy Black, a woman who lives up to her name by walking on the dark side, offers a favour, Nico tasks her with searching for his old friend. He's playing with fire in more ways than one-not only does he risk stirring up a hornets' nest, but the last time he saw Kaylin, his feelings toward her were anything but brotherly. Kaylin La Rocca fell for a man out of a romance novel, but it turned out to be more of a horror story. Now she's his prisoner, a pretty little princess trapped in a glittering tower. A possession. She dreams of rescue, but any potential prince will have to face not only the cops but the villain who has claimed her. Can Nico and Emmy rescue her from the devil's clutches and prove that happily ever afters do exist? Secrets from the Past is a romantic suspense crossover between Blackwood Security and Baldwin's Shore.
