Stryder by Sara Jones

Lydia:
I’ve never really used dating apps, but I figured it was time to give this one a shot.
There were a lot of so-so guys on there, but when I came across his profile, I shuddered.
He was sexy, just my type, and a military man. Yum.
I sent him a friendly message, and to my surprise, he answered me quickly.
We agreed to meet up at a local spot. I was excited, but a little worried.
I didn’t let the thought linger and went to the date in a state of optimism.
Stryder was even better than I expected, and things were going so well.
Until my worries became a reality.
My crazy ex showed up out of nowhere and ruined the whole thing.

Stryder:
I couldn’t believe such a great girl was still available, and to meet her on a dating app?
Unbelievable.
Even more so unbelievable was that she stormed out of our date when that mystery guy showed up. Who was he?
I tried to contact her but she deleted her app. I felt like I was out of luck.
The next day I received a text from my commanding officer.
He told me he needed my help protecting his sister from her stalker ex-boyfriend.
I agreed to help, and when I met them at his office, I was shocked.
It was Lydia.
I thought I wouldn’t see her again, and now I was charged with protecting her from a crazed man.
I knew I had to do whatever it took to keep her out of harms way.
