MEN OF PSI: LUKE - The Profiler (Men of PSI #1) Stacy Gail MEN OF PSI: LUKE – THE PROFILER Eden Polite society referred to my father as a “motivational speaker.” Fact is, he’s the kind of cult leader that makes national news, and never in a good way. For years I was part of that world—Tru Steadfast’s darling daughter, living in the spotlight while helping dear old Dad sucker his brainwashed followers out of every penny they had. Ultimately I couldn’t take that way of life, so I struck out on my own, trying to live quietly and hoping against hope that I could balance the scales of karma. Then the stalking began, and I had to ask for help. That “help” came in the form of psychological profiler, Luke Keyes. From the moment I looked into his eyes—eyes that could see all the way to my tainted soul—I knew he was more dangerous than any stalker ever could be. Luke When Eden Steadfast parked her high-class ass on Private Security International’s doorstep, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing… and not seeing. Maybe the statuesque blonde with kitten green eyes had knocked me off my game, but she wasn’t showing me any of the usual tells everyone else on the planet had. She was smart, maybe even smarter than me, because no matter how hard I looked I couldn’t see past her defenses. Who knew smart could be so damn sexy? Eden was more of a mystery to me than her stalker, and I wanted to unravel her in the most carnal way possible. But before I could do that, I had to find the man who’d decided that if he couldn’t have Eden, no one would. Private Security International is the one-stop shopping for all your personal security needs. From bodyguards to private couriers, to an added layer of military-trained security for high-target events or items, the Men of PSI are the best private security money can buy. 114,000 words ***MEN OF PSI: LUKE, THE PROFILER is a work of romantic suspense, which includes a genius Alpha male who’s met his match in more ways than one. As always, no cliffhangers, love triangles, or cheating. Due to adult language and several sex scenes—with a teensy bit of spanking and light bondage thrown in for giggles (you’re good with that, right?)—this book is not intended for readers under the age of eighteen.*** Discover Other Titles by Stacy Gail: Bitterthorn, Texas Series (Harlequin’s Carina Press): Ugly Ducklings Finish First Starting from Scratch (novella) One Hot Second Where There’s A Will Earth Angels Series (Harlequin’s Carina Press): Nobody’s Angel Savage Angel Wounded Angel Dangerous Angel House Of Payne Series: House of Payne: Payne House of Payne: Scout House of Payne: Twist House of Payne: Rude House of Payne: Steele House of Payne: Max House of Payne: Tag House of Payne: Ice House of Payne: Styx House of Payne: Loki House of Payne: Sage House of Payne: Talon Scorpio Duology: Year of the Scorpio: Part One Year of the Scorpio: Part Two Brody Brothers Series (Harlequin’s Carina Press): Branded Braced Bruised (Indie published) Broken (Indie published) Men of PSI Series: Men of PSI: Luke – The Profiler Novellas: Crime Wave in a Corset (Part of the steampunk holiday anthology, A Clockwork Christmas) How the Glitch Saved Christmas (Part of the Sci-Fi holiday anthology, A Galactic Holiday) His Princess (A House of Payne Novella) Good Girl (A House of Payne Novella) Party Girl (A House of Payne Novella) Connect with Stacy Gail Newsletter: http://eepurl.com/RmNxH Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1rU3qmY Twitter: http://bit.ly/HZ1A0F Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/stacygailsworld/?hl=en Pinterest: http://bit.ly/19ujGx9 Website: https://thestacygail.com/ Copyright All rights reserved.

You’re an amazing therapist and friend, and this book couldn’t have been written without you! Also, thanks to Stacy Gail’s Very Important Readers group on Facebook. When I couldn’t figure out what to name the House of Enlightened Greatness, you all came through for me in a big way! Without your help, I’d probably still be wondering what the hell to name that organization. Thank you all! And lastly, thank you, the readers, for wanting to know Luke Keyes’s story. It took a minute to piece together the perfect woman for this genius of a man, but I think you’ll approve of Eden. I hope so, anyway. *crosses fingers* CONTENTS Prologue: I Changed My Face Chapter One: Who Are You?
