Human Trafficking: One of the most prolific and profitable businesses in the world and growing every day. But that’s only in third world countries, right?
Isabella Donnelly felt safe in her middle-class Colorado neighborhood until human traffickers drugged and abducted her. After being betrayed by a “friend,” she’s transported across state lines to Virginia to be sold into slavery or worse. With the clock ticking she manages to escape and is rescued by skeptical, but staggeringly handsome detective, Wyatt Bowman. After what’s happened she’s slow to trust anyone. Can she trust him?

Wyatt Bowman, with nothing-gets-past-him blue eyes, isn’t convinced her horrific story is true but the lawman in him demands an investigation. Aware of their immediate attraction and the heat burning between them, he doesn’t want to risk her safety but needs her help to carry out the sting operation. Can he keep her from harm?

The Deadly Series

Dave made sure there were no patrols around Wyatt's property between two and four that morning, as they had agreed. In the meantime, he also received some disturbing information.


Matthew Miles, Wyatt's recently hired sales manager, had a connection to Michael Terrell. They were brothers, believe it or not. Matthew had used the last name of Miles for many years, so the association or relationship didn't show up on any background check. Now, digging deeper into his and Isabella's relationship, he became curious about Matthew's past and wanted more information.
