Security Breach. Margaret Daley

      

      INTRUDER AT THE WHITE HOUSE

      When White House tour director Selena Barrow is attacked in her office, the Capitol K-9 Unit goes on high alert. Selena’s cousin is a person of interest in a congressman’s shooting, and Selena has been collecting evidence to exonerate her. Could this be the break they’re looking for? Officer Nicholas Cole and his dog, Max, step in to safeguard Selena—and to keep an eye on the evidence. As the attacks escalate, Selena finds it increasingly difficult to keep her distance from her handsome protector. But with an unknown enemy watching Selena’s every move, Nicholas will become her confidant…and her lifeline.

      Capitol K-9 Unit: These lawmen solve the toughest cases with the help of their brave canine partners.

      “I don’t see the car that was following us,” Selena said.

      She turned back around in her seat. “I think you lost him.”

      “Not for long.” Nicholas drove down the side street a second time. “We’re going hunting. I want to know who is so interested in us.”

      Selena nodded. “Good. We need answers.”

      He chuckled. “We?”

      “Yes, you said we would work together on the case that might clear my cousin’s name. Or do you want me to do it alone? I will if I have to.”
