Summary
Seven year old Alexandria Forest follows her dad out one stormy night and discovers that he’s been keeping a young woman captive. She helps her to safety and notifies the police of what she’s seen. That morning they arrest Titus Forest who they later identify as a man who’s responsible for over thirty murders. All young females, all in the same gruesome and inhuman way. Alexandria and her remaining family are taken in by their estranged Uncle’s, get new identities and tries to forget about the horror that happened that summer night.
Nearly twenty years later firefighter Lieutenant Lexa Woods returns to her hometown. She buys a house with the intention of rebuilding it, just as she intendeds to do with her life. On her first day back she runs into Clarke Griffin, and she’s swept off of her feet in an instant. Just when she starts to believe that maybe she has a chance at a normal life, she's thrown into yet another nightmare. After all of the crap the universe had thrown at her, she really should have known better than to relax all of the safety measures.
A story based on “The Obsession” by Nora Roberts. I own nothing but the writing.

Summary
Recently (and unwillingly) married and in a loveless relationship with a man who is no short of being terrible, Lexa likes to find little things that offer her an escape from her everyday life. One of these being going to the local art museum in her new town where she can get lost in the paintings and be transported to a world that isn't her own. But when she meets the museum's curator, Clarke Griffin, Lexa finds herself going there more often for more reasons than just to look at the artwork.

Summary
“My brother wants men to fight his wars, and gold to line his pockets.” Lena replied, with her head held high. “And if the path to get what he desires lies between my legs so be it. He doesn’t care for me, and if you think you’ll be rewarded once you’ve done his bidding you’re an even bigger fool than I initially thought. Lex will forget you, and you should count yourself lucky he does.”
“Perhaps a night of contemplation without food will help you put order in your mind.” Only now, at the mention of food did Lena notice that the detestable milksop was holding a tray with bread and watered wine and what smelled like some sort of vegetable stew. “In time you will understand that King Lex—”
“Lex is no king.” Not yet. “But his name is on your mouth so often revered sister, one has to wonder whether other parts of him find their way inside of you as well.”

Summary
Founder, owner, and CEO of Polis Power and Conservation, Lexa Woods, thought she had everything. Money, power, prestige, a penthouse apartment with a commanding view of Polis. General surgeon at Arcadia General Hospital, Clarke Griffin, was content with her life, even if her friends labeled her a workaholic. She loved her job and the lonely nights never bothered her. But a fateful encounter would have them questioning if they had merely been surviving.
A near collision, a broken leg, a close kept secret, and a spur of the moment offer brings these two powerful and private women together. What started off as a lie to save one woman, turns into something more as they are forced to spend time together.
