HOSTAGE SITUATION
When armed robbers strike her bank, hostage negotiator Skyler Brennan’s life is on the line. Rescue comes from the last person she thought she could count on—the ex-boyfriend who chose his job over their relationship. FBI agent Logan Hunter knows how much is resting on this case. The promotion of his dreams…and the safety of the woman he’s never been able to forget. But when an unexpected twist in the case pulls Logan in two separate directions, he’ll have to make an impossible choice. Will he manage to have it all by Christmas—a career and love—or will he lose them both?
First Responders: Brave men and women alert and ready for danger and love.
Logan searched ahead for an escape and spotted an alley on the left.
He quickly changed lanes. The car slid wildly on the wet pavement for a moment. He saw Skyler put her hand on the dash to brace herself for another impact. Wouldn’t happen. Not if he had anything to say about it. He wouldn’t let anything bad happen to her again.
“Hold on tighter,” he warned. “We’re turning left into an alley ahead.”
“At this speed? In front of all this traffic?” Anxiety lifted her voice higher.
“I can do it. You could, too. We’re both trained for this very thing, but Clyde isn’t. He’ll never make the turn.” Logan squeezed her hand. “You trust me?”
“I trust you to keep me safe.”
He heard the hesitation in her tone. Likely because she didn’t trust him in any other area of life, not because she didn’t believe he could handle this maneuver. Not something he could focus on now and safely evade the Jeep on their tail.
He let go of her hand and gripped the wheel. “Here we go.”
