Lone Star Hostage (Hard Justice)

When a Texas socialite is abducted, the kidnappers make a puzzling demand: Maverick Ops’ security specialist, Presley Nolan, and his former partner at San Antonio PD, Billie Cooper, are to do the ransom exchange to free the hostage. Presley and Billie have no idea why they’ve been chosen, and they’re not happy about working together again. On their last assignment, a hostage ended up dead, and while dealing with their grief, they landed in bed for what Billie believes was a serious mistake since she was Presley’s boss at the time. Billie doesn’t want another personal involvement to mess with her focus so Presley and she agree to just get the job done in what they hope will be a quick ransom drop and hostage extraction. It’s not. The kidnappers begin a deadly game of cat and mouse, and Presley and Billie find themselves drawn deeper into the heart of danger, where shadows of the past and their fierce attraction for each other refuse to stay buried. With every twist and turn, they must confront their own demons and unravel the tangled web of dark secrets before it’s too late. But as the stakes soar higher and attacks escalate, they realize that their only chance of survival lies in facing the truth together. — ASIN: 196503201X | ISBN13: 9781965032015 | ISBN-13: 978-1965032015
