1 - Gloria's Gumption: Twisted Willow

If Gloria doesn't let anyone in, no one else can betray her. 

But with a serial killer circling her home, it's a risk she may be forced to take. Her heart tells her to lean into the sexy FBI agent who showed up at exactly the right moment. It his arrival too perfect, though? With his responses running hot and cold, Gloria isn't sure she should offer him an opening he could choose to use against her. Surely, her dog and her gun will be enough to take down the killer on her own.

Special Agent Collin Warner may not be assigned this case by his boss, but he is committed to finding the killer. His cold detachment usually ensures his full focus remains on the case before him, but the fiery, shotgun-wielding woman who captures his heart makes it impossible for him to keep his distance. Now he just has to convince her that he's one of the good guys.
