Selfish Ambition

Shortly after Sherelle Lindsey transmits her dissertation to Journalism Department heads at the American University in Cairo (“AUC”), a bomb blasts through her classroom. When she awakes, she’s tied to a chair. Who’s captured her? To her surprise, Army Special Forces and Major Laurence “Lennie” Williams are responsible. How does she thank this wounded soldier? Betrayal. Twisted by her aspirations to become managing editor and her growing love for Major Williams, Sherelle struggles to come clean.

For Major Williams, rescuing someone from the throes of danger was not only his job, but also the adrenaline rush he needed to survive a broken engagement. After being wounded during the rescue of Sherelle Lindsey, he can no longer go on covert missions and he finds himself with no other option than to take a job as a counterintelligence supervisor in Washington, D.C. Life has no real meaning for him until he meets Sherelle Lindsey on a train. It doesn’t take Lennie long to know he’s in love. Though Lennie can’t explain it, he’s certain God put them together. Matter of fact, he believes unequivocally that Sherelle saved him instead of the other way around. But can he convince her of that? Or has he misinterpreted God’s message?
