False Front

Emma Porter has spent years pretending to be someone else.

As a child, she was abducted from her wealthy family. Rescued weeks later, her kidnapper was never caught.

Now, in New York, Emma is living under a false identity with one rule: never let anyone get too close.


Enter Nathan Bishop.


After rescuing Emma from a predator in a Manhattan bar, Nathan becomes obsessed with seeing the young journalist again. Two years later, he tempts Emma back into his world with an offer of an exclusive interview. The closer they get, the harder it becomes for Emma to keep her distance—or for Nathan to hide the truth.


Nathan Bishop’s reputation as a reckless billionaire is a carefully crafted front. In reality, he leads a covert security operation built to stop the world’s most dangerous threats. When a deadly bioweapon surfaces on U.S. soil, Nathan is pulled into a life-or-death hunt. The closer he gets to the truth, the more certain Nathan becomes that Emma’s at the center of it all, that her kidnapper is still out there… looking for her.
