Turn up the pressure in this nonstop thriller where one woman's defiancé—and her fierce love for the man she could never forget—may be all that's standing in the way of a new bioterror threat. After a terrorist attack on Ashley Agnello’s CIA team, she’s done sitting behind the desk as an analyst and is ready to jump into the thick of the action. On her first field mission, she breaks protocol and reads sensitive classified data above her pay grade. But Ashley’s conscience overrides her duty, and she goes rogue. Logan Silva washed his hands of the CIA two years ago. Scarred and tormented, he wants to be left alone to battle his demons. But when he learns that Ashley is missing, nothing is more important than finding her. Now they’re hunted by a relentless madman with an unknown agenda, and wanted by their own people. There’s nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. And the only way for them to survive is together. Originally published in the Turn the Tide anthology.
