The Coltons of Shadow Creek series comes to a shocking Christmas climax in two heart-pounding stories

Special Agent Cowboy by Regan Black

When hackers strike Colton, Inc., they put executive Marie Meyers in their crosshairs. FBI agent Emiliano Ortega is charged with protecting the beautiful city girl on his ranch. But keeping their mutual attraction professional under the mistletoe is impossible…

The Marine’s Christmas Case by Lara Lacombe

When Dario Ortega meets Felicity Grant, the lovely marine-turned-PI spurns his advances. Instead, Dario offers his tech expertise to help Felicity solve the Colton, Inc., hacking. Working the case together softens Felicity’s steely heart and makes Dario rethink bachelorhood. But can they catch a killer Colton in time for Christmas?

Two novellas filled with thrilling suspense and exciting romance as the brothers of Ortega are trying to solve the Colton, Inc., hacking case and deliciously and completely falling in love in the process of protecting and investigating.  
I don't know if I should even call them novellas because the story continues seamlessly from Special Agent Cowboy by Regan Black to
The Marine’s Christmas Case by Lara Lacombe like it is one story with two authors and two couples fumbling with life and love while trying to survive the violent threats and solve the bizarre case. 
In both stories, the connection and chemistry between the hero and heroine are sizzling hot yet true and belivable. Yes, things are moving at a fast pace, but the attraction and interest are genuine, the scare and fright of the threats intensifying all the emotions. 
Emiliano Ortega is back at his parents' ranch after his divorce left him broken and broke. He is a hotshot FBI agent, his kindness shows in his eyes, and his love for the animals at the ranch witness it. His constant companion, the corgi named Scrabble, steals the scenes as both the dog and its owner fall head over the heels for Marie Meyers.
Marie is used to be alone, growing up in the system has made her tough as steel. Her career has been her companion, her focus, and her 'family' for a long time. The one thing missing in her life, family, has always been her heart's deepest wish yet so distant possibility. Looking into Emiliano's eyes makes her want to believe in the impossible. If only they could solve the case and defuse the threats so she could get back to her safe life, to guard her heart. 
Dario Ortega, Emiliano's brother, offers to help with the investigation as he is home for the holidays and in-between assignments. Dario has a reputation with the ladies, his flirty ways charming women of all the ages, but one look at Felicity Grant and his thoughts shift a gear. 
Felicity is fresh out of Marines and still not comfortable with the civilian life. She keeps her distance and has no interest in being one of Dario's attractions. 
Working as a team to solve the case gives them an opportunity to get to know each other, the threats towards them making that connection unavoidable. Yet the fragile, tender feelings take root as the magic of Christmas touches their hearts. 
These two couples made me smile and swoon as there is something rather adorable and touching about all of them. The foreboding danger and menace give the stories a sharp edge, the fear for their and their families lives are palpable and real. 
An entertaining package of arresting investigation and vicious action mixed with delightful and rousing romance, and the cutest four-legged friends

As a USA Today bestselling author of award-winning romantic suspense, paranormal romance, and urban fantasy adventures I love to write action-packed stories with a twist! I'm also a coffee addict, domestic zookeeper, wife, and proud mother of two. My newest release: Timeless Vision, the first Knight Traveler novel. Look for my debut with Harlequin Romantic Suspense coming in the fall of 2016 and watch for more of the books I write with Debra Webb in the Dangerous Protector trilogy as well as those we write for Harelquin Intrigue.
