    A dead girl, an ex-government agent, and a trail of secrets. 
    Jacob Knox is in up to his head. The Austin police want him for a murder he didn't commit. And if that wasn't bad enough, the murdered girl is an online celebrity. 
    Weaving his way in and out of the police's dragnet, Knox must find a way to catch the real killer. But it won't be easy. 
    These are highly sophisticated cybercriminals who know how to cover their tracks. Good thing Knox is a skilled operative himself. 
    Following Knox's tail is Detective Harris, an old hand from the APD who is feeling the world slipping away from him. Within the myriad twists and turns of criminals hiding in the cracks of crypto culture, he must rely on good old intuition if he wants to catch the killer. 
    But why did the girl have to die? And is there something much bigger behind all of this? 
    This cyberthriller brings the art of murder into a new era where crime, code, money, and blood all run down the same gutter.

    A Texas Ranger teams up with a beautiful DEA agent deal to take down a deadly drug lord in this romantic suspense novella by a New York Times bestseller. 
     
    Out of danger and . . . into his arms 
     
    Undercover DEA agent Kelly Sloan was tasked with taking down Mexican druglord Dominic Ortega, but when her cover was blown, she barely escaped with her life. After being taken out on his yacht and tortured for information, she literally leapt at the chance to escape overboard, figuring death at sea was better than death at the hands of her vicious captor. But fate had something other than death in mind for her. 
     
    Texas Ranger Quinn McCord was dealing with problems of his own, so the last thing he needed was a gorgeous, nearly naked woman with a shady past. And before the unconscious beauty on the beach even came to, he knew she was either trouble or in trouble—maybe both—because the men patrolling the shallows with a speedboat and binoculars weren’t tourists out for a day’s fishing. His finely honed instincts told him that she was their quarry, and that he had to protect her and find out what was really going on. 
     
    If Kelly was shocked to find herself waking up in the arms of a handsome stranger, Quinn was no less surprised to discover that his damsel-in-distress was a very capable agent who’d quite possibly killed the infamous Dominic Ortega before getting away. Unfortunately for them both, Ortega hadn’t died. Instead he’d put a two-million-dollar bounty on her head and sent his army of killers-for-hire in pursuit. 
     
    Now Kelly and Quinn are both the pursued and the pursuers as they try to stay alive long enough for Kelly to testify against Ortega—and for the two of them to follow up on the once-in-a-lifetime attraction neither one of them wants to fight.
