In 2002, Mark Vincent, onetime senior special agent, ran into John, a troubled little boy, at a local McDonald’s. Concerned, although it wasn’t his business, he gave the kid his business card and left. Three years later, Mark is director of his department at the WBIS and married to Quinton Mann, the former CIA spook who now writes spy novels. They’ve settled into a life of quiet domesticity and are even considering adopting a cat. All this changes when John, now using another name, barrels into Mark’s life with a secret no one expects and on the run from an organization that wants him despite the collateral damage. What will Mark, the man known as “the best” in the intelligence community, do when he learns what this secret is? Will it affect his relationship with Quinn? And how complicated are things going to get when Mark decides to get involved?

Mann of My Dreams Book 5: Complications

He leaned over his son and kissed me. “In a heartbeat.”


For a second I couldn’t catch my breath as that feeling swept over me again. Finally, I managed to say, “That makes me happy, Mark.”

I turned my head and took a moment to observe the man who had come to mean so much to me and the boy who slept between us.


Our presence must have reassured the boy, because just then he was sound asleep, looking positively angelic. I wouldn’t say as much to my husband, however. He’d be highly insulted that any child of his would be considered to look adorable.
