"Things really get hot for wealthy business woman and artist Jessica Simon when she decides to overcome her dread of men caused by a childhood trauma. The strong masculine types frighten her; their hands terrify her, reminding her of being completely helpless. A way to confront her male-anxiety problem arises when Jessica's father Edward reads some character defaming press articles about Jess and decides to become a better father by stepping into Jess's life with the aid of Grady Bowman.

But Jessica has enemies that she has no idea exist. She rejected a suitor, and is his fixation—he deserves her and now he must punish her. Besides two of his friends, he has the help of a woman who believes she is Jess's sister and wants Jess's place in the family: the bad press will drive Jess and her father Edward apart. And he will get his hands on Jess's lovely body. She will be his, or else.

What happens when unwilling accomplice Grady Bowman, Widower/Rancher/veterinarian, finds himself agreeing to help Edward with his daughter? Plenty of antagonism that he can not deal with gracefully. He sees Jess as a replica of his late wife Lynn, and he is particular about who is around his young son John. But Jessica's antagonists attack her, forcing him to help Edward, forcing him to live in close quarters with Jessica, and finding it really hard to keep his hands to himself 

Fixation is an intriguing romantic suspense that centers on how easily a fatal attraction can destroy an innocent individual. The story line never lets up as Jess and Grady fall in love on the one hand and a vicious stalker becomes crazier and more desperate on the other hand. The two subplots blend into a deep plot that will entertain sub-genre fans, who will clamor for more works by N.C. Anderson.

"Fixation, an exciting new suspense thriller from NanC Anderson, is a page-turner, or should I say "screen-turner," that will have you hunched over the monitor reading late into the night." —Penny Warner, The Connor Westphal Mysteries

"Tender. Poignant. NanC Anderson deftly explores a tortured journey: a woman with an abusive past, a family ready to believe destructive lies about her, and conspirators determined to make those lies truths. Aided in overcoming her challenges, respecting herself and her convictions, she discovers the healing and joy only found in love."
    —Vicki Hinze, Duplicity.

Fixation (great title too!) is an intense read—an effective blend of suspense and romance, with a unique premise, an adventurous heroine, a strong and sensitive hero, and a  knockout ending. The style is fresh and lively—an original voice!"
    —Award winning author, Alicia T. Rasley.
