Blurb:

When the FBI brings Laura Roberts - a quiet, reserved bookkeeper - in for questioning regarding activities at the warehouse where she works, an uneasy Laura resigns her job - only to be attacked by thugs.

Chase Donovan intends to spend a few peaceful days on his boat getting his head together - and finds a woman being assaulted by two men who say his father told them to do it.

Chase doesn’t want to believe his father could hurt anyone. Laura doesn’t understand why she’s a target. Can they learn to work together to discover the truth - before someone dies?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Excerpt:

In a local diner, two FBI agents insist Laura come with them to FBI headquarters.  As she tries to convince the agents they have the wrong person, Chase approaches.

Chase Donovan had joined the fracas. Dressed in jeans and a black leather jacket, he was tall and athletic, in his mid-thirties, with a wavy mixture of light, nearly blond, and medium brown hair. 
He was also her boss's son. 
A bewildered expression covered Chase's handsome, chiseled features. He stood so close that as Laura jerked from Phillips' hold, her elbow nearly whacked Chase in the stomach. 
Saunders identified himself to Chase. “We need Miss Roberts at headquarters to answer a few questions.”
“I'd like to see some I.D.,” Chase said firmly. 
Saunders arched a dark, hairy eyebrow. “And you are?”
“Chase Donovan.” He rested a hand lightly on her shoulder. Laura stiffened at his touch, unaccustomed to Chase putting a hand on her, even if in a protective manner.  
“Laura works for my father,” Chase said. “If I don't see some identification, she's not going anywhere with you.” To prove his point, his hand moved downward and his fingers wrapped gently around her forearm.
Chase also worked for his father, although what his role was within the business was generally debatable among the clientele. This was so embarrassing. In the three years Laura had worked as Dick Donovan's bookkeeper, her conversations with his son had been work related or cordial exchanges about the weather. If there was any chance of the floor opening up and swallowing her, she considered now the perfect time.

  6. Hi Angela,
    Yay Chase! Obviously I am reading my excerpts out of order, but it wasn't hard for me to pick out her hero.

  7. Wondering if they were "real" FBI agents. I would not know if their IDs were real or not.

    1. Yes, those badges are real. And, unfortunately, Laura is too shaken up to question their authenticity. Thank you for stopping by and commenting.
