Trusting a stranger may prove to be her only means of escape...but at what cost? Abandoned as a child and desperate for the love of a family, Boston costume designer Tess Horton refuses to believe her newly discovered relatives are part of the Greek Mafia-until they try to kill her. Plagued by assassins, and prophetic dreams she doesn't understand, Tess flees to Mexico only to stumble upon CIA field officer, Max Maxwell, who washes up on the beach, wounded, unconscious, and Tess's only hope. Is he willing to betray her trust...if it means stopping an attack on America? Max is chasing terrorists during a storm on the Sea of Cortez when he runs into an ambush. Knocked out cold, he awakens without any memory of who he is or what he is doing in Baja. When assassins arrive, Max follows his instincts and helps his rescuer escape. Tess has no choice but to trust him as danger closes in on all sides. With every step they take together, Max is drawn closer to his brave companion, only to discover when his memories return that betraying her is the only way to stop the worst attack in US history.

Autorenporträt
Award-winning author, Pepper O'Neal is a researcher, a writer, and an adrenalin junkie. She has a doctorate in education and spent sev-eral years in Mexico and the Caribbean working as researcher for an educational resource firm based out of Mexico City. During that time, she met and befriended many adventurers like herself, includ-ing former CIA officers and members of organized crime. Her fiction is heavily influenced by the stories they shared with her, as well her own experiences abroad. O'Neal attributes both her love of adventure and her compulsion to write fiction to her Irish and Cherokee ancestors. When she's not at her computer, O'Neal spends her time taking long walks in the for-ests near her home or playing with her cats. And of course, planning the next adventure.
