Run Cindy Run by Lana McAra

Framed. Betrayed. Hunted. She trusted him once. Can she survive him twice? One woman. One mission. Zero room for mistakes.

Hunted for secrets she doesn't have, Run, Cindy, Run! is a gripping romantic techno-thriller packed with CIA betrayals, cyber warfare, and heart-pounding suspense that won't let you go from cover to cover. Tom Clancy meets Sandra Brown.

After her parents are jailed for treason, Cindy Lestrade disappears into the Arizona desert with a new identity. When U.S. missile systems go down, world powers hunt the one person who can unlock the code-Cindy. But she doesn't have the key. Cindy's only hope is Grant Collier-the CIA agent who told her he loved her, then betrayed her. Now he's back to save her... or is he really there to finish his mission?

Tara's Dilemma by Lana McAra

A marriage of convenience was never supposed to feel like home...

Tara Legare agrees to a contract marriage for one reason only: to pay for her brother’s medical care. A housekeeping job on a remote Colorado ranch seems simple enough—until it comes with a husband and a whole lot of complications.

Mark Chambers needs a wife, but he wants a partner. When a neighboring rancher is murdered, Mark is the prime suspect and Tara must decide where her true loyalty lies.

For fans of heartfelt slow-burn romance, frontier grit, and small-town secrets, Tara’s Dilemma delivers a clean historical love story layered with cozy mystery and Old West charm.
