Synopsis

Many of us have witnessed someone walk free despite being guilty of a crime. Perhaps we have even felt the urge to take justice into our own hands but held back due to fear of reprisal or the legal consequences. But what happens when a victim, or someone connected to a crime, decides to act? Does seeking vengeance make them self-righteous, or are they justified in making the guilty pay? In this gripping and suspenseful novel, Jake does exactly that. As he takes justice into his own hands, he leads the police on a relentless chase, leaving behind cryptic clues about his next target. With each riddle, the stakes rise. Can the police decipher his messages and catch him before he strikes again, or will Jake continue to outmaneuver them while carrying out his version of justice?

    Secrets and lies collide in this upcoming explosive Romantic Thriller from New York Times bestselling author Toni Anderson. 
    Rowena Smith may be a top-shelf librarian, but solid investigative skills won’t keep her safe after her newest research project—tracking down her biological father—leads her to a brutally murdered body. The scene offers up one hope for assistance: the card of FBI Supervisory Special Agent Kurt Montana. Alone and terrified in a foreign country, Rowena places the call. 
    About to board a flight home after a failed mission, Kurt can’t ignore the plea in Rowena’s voice. She could be the killer or she could be an innocent bystander—either way, he senses she holds information vital to his case. When Kurt’s flight takes off without him—only to crash into the African savanna killing everyone onboard—he knows it’s no coincidence. Rowena saved his life. 
    On the run from powerful enemies, he and Rowena pose as a couple—never mind that she’s much too young for him. As danger escalates and they inch closer to the secret someone is trying desperately to prevent them from revealing, their fake relationship spirals into something far more perilous. And deeply personal. 
    The game gets deadlier with each and every step toward the truth. But there’s no turning back and they’ll need to rely on their skills and their wits—and each other—if they hope to survive. 
    If you love age-gap romance, high-stakes danger, and alpha heroes with a soft spot for the woman they protect, don’t miss this thrilling, action-packed story!
