Summary

When four fun-loving Southern ladies hit the road to attend a teaching conference in Savannah, Georgia, they hope that the week will be one to remember. It turns out they're right-but not for the reasons they all imagine. In their lives, most things they face are mundane-what to make for lunch, how to make the kids pay attention in class, and how to work with the school's budget committee. They all jumped at the chance to get away. For Debra, Ashley, Brianna, and Mary Sue, this is a working vacation, one where they'll all learn a little and laugh a lot. It's a chance to live the good life for a few days. They all love the luxury of their conference hotel-especially the view. So when one of them suggests an evening drive across that spectacular bridge they admire from their rooms, they hit the road again. But these teachers have missed the lesson about being prepared: they soon find themselves stranded on a dark country road. Debra offers to save the day, so she grabs a gas can and heads boldly into the darkness. But when Debra doesn't come back, the threesome must now work together to solve the mystery. Rich with local color, laughter, drama, and more, this thrilling adventure of everyday people trapped in an extraordinary experience is a little slice of lives lived loud and proud.

    It all started with a fake baby bump. Then, I really got knocked up. Now, I've been stolen by Russian Special Forces. This wasn't supposed to happen. 
     
    I had my escape planned. One last time letting him tie me up, strip me down, and own me completely. Then? I was betrayed—by my own damn hormonal body. 
     
    One second, I was drunk on pleasure. The next? A sharp nip to my overly sensitive nipple made me scream—not in bliss like usual, but in agonizing pain. 
     
    I woke up in the ER—Just in time for a big-mouthed doctor to announce to Oleksi: "First pregnancies are always the worst!" Now, Oleksi knows—everything. And my escape plan is blown to hell. But just when I think it can't get worse—Russian Special Forces storm his mansion. 
     
    Not for him. They came for me. Now, I'm locked in a Russian black ops site, realizing I never really knew my parents at all. And me and my baby? We're about to become exactly what I was always meant to be—a lab rat. 
     
    I just hope the pissed-off, possessive Bratva king meant what he said. That he'd burn the whole world down to find me. Because if he doesn't—Neither me nor the baby growing in my belly will ever see the light of day again.
