Daniella St. Sauveur and her partner, retired Army Ranger Adrian Reilly have survived a special hell left by former CIA Assistant Director of Operations, Charlie O’Donnell. With secret help from foreign friends and a love forged in fire, O’Donnell’s plans and his rogue sniper were destroyed, and the truth buried. But O’Donnell’s reach beyond the grave has no limits. Betrayed again by someone within their tight circle, the millions he reaped and immorally hid in Dani’s name have been delivered to the IRS and FBI and she is arrested for conspiracy, money laundering and treason. With the current CIA director unwilling to pull her into its protection, Dani turns to FBI lawyer Robert Callahan, a man who walked away from her and the future she had thought they would share. Reilly’s role as second in command and the threat of losing Dani not only to the judicial system but to her ex, tests his resolve and promise to never leave her. That strength is further tested when O’Donnell’s old partners come to collect the bounty that had been placed on Reilly’s life. Who betrayed Dani is only part of the looming question as vendettas manifest from Reilly’s shadowy past and he battles to save not only her life but his own.

Daniella St. Sauveur and her partner, retired Army Ranger Adrian Reilly, have survived the special hell created by former CIA Assistant Director of Operations Charlie O’Donnell. But O’Donnell’s reach extends even beyond the grave. The millions he reaped and hid in Dani’s name have been delivered to the IRS and FBI. Arrested and charged with conspiracy, money laundering and treason, Dani has no choice but to turn to the one man who can prove her innocence—Robert Callahan—the same man who broke her heart and destroyed her hopes for the future. With both the IRS and FBI digging into her life, Dani must depend on Cal to clear her name and assure Reilly of her love while Reilly struggles with his role as second-in-command—and the possibility of losing Dani forever, not only to the justice system but to her lawyer. Who betrayed Dani is only part of the looming question. As vendettas manifest from Reilly’s shadowy past, he must battle to save not only her life, but his own.

Nadine Dandorf is a Jersey Girl to the core, having grown up in the northwest corner of the state where green valleys are tucked between mountain ranges and livestock and crops rule instead of concrete and stop lights. She is a member of the Romance Writers of America, including its New Jersey and Kiss of Death Chapters, and when not writing, likes to garden, decorate, go to spin class to have her butt viciously kicked three times a week by an unrelenting German girlfriend. She is a dark chocolate addict, a fan of classic/hard rock, an obsessed New York Rangers fan, and has decided, at this point in her life, that cooking is entirely overrated. She is thankful her husband isn’t fussy and her nest is empty. As she and her husband wait for retirement, they take turns caring for the three cats their children have left behind.
