working for Rivera Tech.”
“Because I supplied him with a top-of-the-line, experimental Rivera Tech computer,” Mav said.
Liam studied his friend’s face. “You’re worried about these attacks.”
Mav shrugged a broad shoulder. “We get thousands of attacks a day, but these ones are more sophisticated. They haven’t gotten in, but I worry that they aren’t going to stop trying. If they can’t get in, they’ll find a better hacker who can.”
“Makes you wonder what they’re after?” Zane said.
Mav’s scowl deepened.
“Mav,” Liam said. “If anyone can stop this, it’s you.”
His friend looked at his phone again, his jaw hardening. “Hell, yeah. I’ll stop them and make them regret it.”
“Liam!”
Liam turned. One of the twins was waving at him. He was pretty sure it was Briar.
“When are you and my sister making it official?”
His fingers curled around his glass. He saw heat flood Aspen’s face.
“Briar!” Aspen snapped.
Liam smiled. Briar. He’d been right.
“I mean her moving into your totally awesomesauce pad,” Briar continued. “She’s slept here every night this week.”
“Briar,” Aspen said again.
Liam’s smile widened. He walked toward his woman.
“Ignore her, Liam,” Aspen said. “She’s—”
He took Aspen’s hand and pulled it flat against his chest. “Aspen, will you move in with me?”
She froze. Her mouth dropped open.
“Fill my place with plants. Drop your clothes on the bedroom floor. I’ll buy you chocolates every day. Be mine, Aspen Chandler. Now and forever.”
“Liam.” Warmth filled her face and she melted against him.
His tough investigator melted just for him.
“Say yes,” he whispered.
“Yes,” she whispered back.
He grinned, scooped her off her feet, and kissed her. Their friends and family cheered.
What had started with blackmail, now ended with love, and Liam couldn’t be happier.
I hope you enjoyed Aspen and Liam’s story!

Preview: The Investigator
There was a glass of chardonnay with her name on it waiting for her at home.
Haven McKinney smiled. The museum was closed, and she was done for the day.
As she walked across the East gallery of the Hutton Museum, her heels clicked on the marble floor.
God, she loved the place. The creamy marble that made up the flooring and wrapped around the grand pillars was gorgeous. It had that hushed air of grandeur that made her heart squeeze a little every time she stepped inside. But more than that, the amazing art the Hutton housed sang to the art lover in her blood.
Snagging a job here as the curator six months ago had been a dream come true. She’d been at a low point in her life. Very low. Haven swallowed a snort and circled a stunning white-marble sculpture of a naked, reclining woman with the most perfect resting bitch face. She’d never guessed that her life would come crashing down at age twenty-nine.
She lifted her chin. Miami was her past. The Hutton and San Francisco were her future. No more throwing caution to the wind. She had a plan, and she was sticking to it.
She paused in front of a stunning exhibit of traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. It was one of their newer exhibits, and had been Haven’s brainchild. Nearby, an interactive display was partially assembled. Over the next few days, her staff would finish the installation. Excitement zipped through Haven. She couldn’t wait to have the touchscreens operational. It was her passion to make art more accessible, especially to children. To help them be a part of it, not just look at it. To learn, to feel, to enjoy.
Art had helped her through some of the toughest times in her life, and she wanted to share that with others.
She looked at the gorgeous old paintings again. One portrayed a mountainous landscape with beautiful maple trees. It soothed her nerves.
Wine would soothe her nerves, as well. Right. She needed to get upstairs to her office and grab her handbag, then get an Uber home.
Her cell phone rang and she unclipped it from the
