Her ex-husband becomes her bodyguard in USA TODAY bestseller Cassie Miles’s gripping new suspense novel
After his ex-wife witnesses a murder, FBI agent turned security specialist Sean Timmons steps in to be her bodyguard. One look at investigative reporter Emily Peterson and Sean is reminded why he fell in love with her years ago. But his beautiful, headstrong ex is being targeted by a crime lord—who Sean is determined to take down. Trapped in the Colorado mountains by a blizzard, the former Mr. and Mrs. Timmons rediscover each other with red-hot passion. But a cold-blooded killer is waiting to stop them from uncovering evidence—and ever saying “I do” again.
“You have plenty of reason to be worried,” Sean reminded Emily.
“Don’t make this into a worst-case scenario.” Emily continued to hold his hand, and he felt the tension in her grip.
“Seriously, Emily, you do need a bodyguard.”
“I agree, and the job is yours.”
He’d expected an argument but was glad that she’d decided to be rational. He glanced toward the dining room. The snowstorm raged outside the windows. “I could do with another bowl of chili.”
“Me, too.”
Before she hopped down the step to the floor, she went up on tiptoe and gave him a kiss on the forehead. It was nothing special, the kind of small affection a wife might regularly bestow on her husband. The utter simplicity blew him away.
Before she could turn her back and skip off into the dining room, he caught her hand and gave a tug. She was in his arms. When her body pressed against his, they were joined together the way they were supposed to be.
Then he kissed her.

San Francisco
Mid-September
The double-deck luxury yacht rolled over a Pacific wave just outside San Francisco Bay as Emily Peterson wobbled down a nearly vertical staircase on her four-inch stilettos. Her short, tight, sparkly disguise gave her a new respect for the gaggle of party girls she’d hidden among to sneak on board. Somehow those ladies managed to walk on these stilts without falling and to keep their nipples covered in spite of ridiculously low-cut dresses.
Her plan for tonight was to locate James Wynter’s private computer and load the data onto a flash drive. She’d slipped away from the gala birthday party for one of Wynter Corporation’s top executives. The guests had been raucous as they guzzled champagne and admired their view of the Golden Gate Bridge against the night sky. Some had complained about
