He broke into his office, and had his heart stolen in return. I broke into his office, But I didn’t have a choice. So what if he is good-looking? So what if he is single? So what if he is my type? Why should it worry me that he could easily overpower me? Who cares if what I’m doing is wrong and illegal? I can’t second-guess myself, even if there is the possibility of more between us. The risk is too great. The threat all too real... moreHe broke into his office, and had his heart stolen in return. I broke into his office, But I didn’t have a choice. So what if he is good-looking?

Unfortunately, my life is about to implode, And the least of my problems is an irate private investigator. When old threats return, And new threats—mainly four scary women—attack, The best thing I can do is just keep my head down and ride it out. Then, why can’t I stop thinking about him? Why do I find him so irresistible? And what happens if I make one mistake and lose him forever? Because this is quickly becoming far more than either of us could have ever imagined, And the life and death stakes mean neither of us can mess up. I can’t believe breaking into his office has led to all this. Then again, as some people say: there is nothing quite like love at first … crime. less

If these are triggers for you then perhaps consider that this might not be a suitable book. Recommended for readers 17+ I Stalked Him Back is a romantic suspense. Each previous book in this series can be read out of order, however this is the final book and I would recommend having read at least book 6 – I Poisoned Her Coworkers - to get the full scope of this one. Please note this book ends at approx. 41,000 words (65%-ish). There are bonus epilogues for the previous books in the series, and one for this book, which comes to approx. 20,000 words.
