  In this third book of the Maria series, young attorney Luke Smith enlists the help of Maria, now 16, to find his ex-fiancée Becca and her baby daughter who he thinks may be his. Mother and daughter are in the Philippines with the rogue federal agent Brent Danes, the man who broke up Luke's engagement to Becca through a series of missteps and accidental encounters. 
  Are Brent and Becca now together, together, or are they just two friends with big troubles helping each other out? Maria arranges a missionary trip to Manila to give Luke cover to travel discreetly. Luke needs to find Becca without outing Danes' location to the authorities. 
  Luke's hunt for his ex-fiancée and possible daughter begin to merge with events of the missionary trip raising the stakes for several of the players. Can Luke stay out of the crosshairs of the feds looking to catch Danes, while at the same time not break Becca's rules that he must follow if he wants to meet his possible child? 
  Meanwhile, Brent Danes needs to walk the tightrope of working with a Russian operative who is his current benefactor, without being forced to work for him. 
  If you've read books one and two, The Timing of Maria and The Gone Side of the Fence, this third installment will bring the excitement and suspense to even greater levels. Valentyna: The Foreign Connection, is also a thrilling stand-alone book.
