About this ebook

Reeling from a negotiation gone wrong, FBI Special Agent April Ramos is caught off guard when a frazzled young woman shoves a crying baby into her arms, then disappears. Worry for the child's safety quickly turns to fear when a man claiming to be the girl's father abducts them at gunpoint. April puts her hostage negotiation skills to use to learn more about who she's dealing with: Jason Snyder, a fugitive accused of murder.

As Jason spins a tall tale about being framed for the killing of his business partner, April must sort through his claims to find the truth. A truth that becomes all the more evident after April overhears a conversation between Jason and the local sheriff and realizes something more sinister may be happening in their small town of Sweet Briar, Texas. But aligning herself with a known fugitive to uncover the burden of proof could cost April her job . . . or worse, her life and the lives of other innocent people.

Ratings and reviews

This novel is packed with mystery, corruption, suspense, healing and romance. April Ramos is a unique woman. She has a heart of gold. When things don't go as they should she takes it personal. When she is thrown into a not normal circumstance she must rely on all her FBI training. Jason Snyder finds himself in a very difficult situation, in which he may have made it way worse. Will April help him or be his downfall? I enjoyed the mystery and crime solving aspects of this novel.
