Shot in the Dark

A desperate mother. A runaway daughter.
And a very reluctant hero…

Henry Thompson is a former marine—not a babysitter. But when Jessie Peterson begs for his help locating her rebellious preteen, his military-rescue instincts kick into overdrive. The desperate single mom has stumbled onto family treasure, buried secrets, deadly doppelgängers…and imminent danger. With gunfire dogging their every move, Henry will do anything to keep them safe. But will he lose his guarded heart in the bargain?

From Harlequin Intrigue: Seek thrills. Solve crimes. Justice served.
