New York Times and #1 ebook bestselling author Alexa Riley returns with Stay Close, the first
novella in a brand-new series spinning off from the bestselling For Her books.
A former Russian mafia soldier is hired to protect a friend’s young daughter, but he knows
he’ll do more than keep her safe–he’ll make her his. Forever.
If she were to simply whisper my name, I would be at her feet, begging to touch what I shouldn’t,
taste what doesn’t belong to me, run my hands along the sweet innocence she taunts me with.
Penelope Justice is eighteen, old enough to graduate high school but—according to her parents—not
old enough to live without 24/7 security. Practice has made her an expert at ditching her bodyguards. One
look at Ivan and she never wants to run again.
I’ve been hired to protect her.
I can’t help but think that perhaps someone should have protected her from me.
Ivan steals the breath right out of her lungs, something no boy has ever done. Then again, he's far
from a boy. This man, this man who looks like he could kill someone with the flick of a wrist, is
everything. He is her future.
I can’t let her go and I won’t give her up. I’ve done bad things in my life, and I don’t deserve her.
But I can’t do the honorable thing.
I’ve never been noble, and I’m not starting now.

Dear Reader,
As book lovers, no matter how much we want our favorite stories to go on forever, we know that
eventually they will come to an end. The same is sadly true of my monthly letter to you. While I know
some of you do look forward to this letter, we’ve decided that we can no longer continue to include it for
some practical reasons, which I don’t want to bore you with. So this will be my last letter to you all. But
never fear, the good books will continue to come every month and that is what’s most important!
Still, I get one last chance to tell you all about the amazing books we have in store for you, and I’m
going to take full advantage of the opportunity. Are you ready?
