Searching for the truth…
Disgraced investigative journalist Pip West is devastated when she discovers her best friend’s body face-down in a tranquil lake. When cops and federal agents determine that her friend overdosed then drowned, Pip knows they’re mistaken and intends to prove it.
Special Agent Hunt Kincaid doesn’t trust journalists and has no patience for Pip’s delusions, especially since her meddling could reveal why the FBI is interested in her friend’s last days. The dead scientist worked at the cutting edge of vaccine research and might have a connection to a new, weaponized, vaccine-resistant anthrax strain that just hit the black market.
…just turned deadly.
Pip is thrown off her game by grief and her unexpected attraction to the handsome federal agent. Hunt battles the same unwelcome pull, determined to resist the heat that threatens to consume them both. But the more Pip digs, the closer she gets to both the sexy FBI agent, and to a bioweapons terrorist who’s more than capable of cold-bloodedly sacrificing anyone who gets in his way.
Excerpt:
Pip’s lips buzzed from the kiss she and the sexy FBI agent had shared. After the last few weeks it made a change to experience something other than grief or death. Her life had become a war zone. Forgetting the pain, even for a few moments, had been a welcome relief.
She signaled onto I-75 heading south to Atlanta, Hunt Kincaid following a safe distance behind. Cindy’s SUV handled like a dream and reminded Pip of how excited her friend had been when she’d driven it off the lot four short months ago.
Warmth washed through her. There was comfort in being surrounded by memories of Cindy in happier times. Pip needed to hold onto that if she hoped to get through the next few weeks without losing her mind.
It wasn’t the only thing she wanted to hold close.
That kiss had ignited a desire she hadn’t felt in years, not since she’d fallen in love with Van whom she’d stupidly followed to Miami before he broke her heart. Hunt was turning into a temptation she didn’t want to resist, something to keep her mind off the ugliness and emptiness of her reality. And she liked the fact she had gotten under the skin of his federal persona. She liked that a lot.
