Treacherous Intent. Camy Tang

      

      DANGER AT HER DOORSTEP

      Private investigator Elisabeth Aday thinks her California women’s shelter is a safe haven—until skip tracer Liam O’Neill shows up. While searching for a missing woman, Liam unwittingly puts Elisabeth in the crosshairs of the deadly drug gang that is trailing his target. To stay alive, they must find the woman before the gang finds them. And when a second rival gang joins the search, the threats multiply. Deep in the lair of notorious drug dealers, Elisabeth can’t tell which is more dangerous—the criminals after her…or her growing feelings for the man at her side.

      Someone was outside her apartment door.

      Liam drew his gun from the concealed holster. He recognized the men outside as part of the gang that had attacked them earlier.

      His pulse racing, he turned to Elisabeth.

      She gestured with her hand, and they went out the back door. They ran to her car, the intruders gaining on them.

      “Come on!” Elisabeth cried, cranking the ignition.

      Just then a souped-up SUV pulled into the lot. The driver’s voice rose in anger, shouting in a language Liam didn’t understand.

      But Elisabeth did.

      She grabbed Liam’s shirt. “Get down! This might be bad.”

      He hunched down, his eyes only inches from her face. “What do you mean?”

      “The men in the SUV… I recognized their tattoos. It’s a form of Filipino script popular with gangs.”

      “Those men in the SUV are gang members…” He blew out a breath as it dawned on him. “There are two gangs after us?”

      She gave him a wary look. “And we’re caught in the middle.”
