Synopsis:
He just wants to play…
Life is perfect for Zack Lennox. He’s got it made: fast car,
fast women, and the best job on the planet – until he comes face to face with a
tiny girl caught up in a child-smuggling ring. The moment he decides to rescue
her, his perfect life of fun and games is at risk. He’s already entered the
world of the Black Dragon syndicate where evil men barter human flesh for cold
hard cash.
He just doesn’t know it yet.
She's on a mission…
Life is anything but perfect for Mei Xing, a single mother
searching for her kidnapped daughter, LiLi. When law enforcement proves
worthless, she takes matters into her own hands and runs headlong into the
handsome Agent Lennox. He’s cocky and self-assured. She’s fiercely determined
to run over anyone who gets in her way. How difficult could it be to dupe him
into telling all he knows?
Mei is about to find out.
Author Bio:
Irish Winters is an award-winning author who dabbles in
poetry, grandchildren, and rarely (as in extremely rarely) the kitchen. More
prone to be outdoors than in, she grew up the quintessential tomboy on a farm
in rural Wisconsin, spent her teenage years in the Pacific Northwest, but calls
the Wasatch Mountains of Northern Utah home. For now.
The wife of one handsome husband and the mother of three
perfect sons, Irish divides her time between writing at home and travelling the
country with her man while - writing. (Seriously, what else?)
She believes in making every day count for something and
follows the wise admonition of her mother to, "Look out the window and see
something!"

EXCERPT:
While he walked through her neglected
home, she set her teakettle to boil and placed two mugs, two spoons, and what
was left of the sugar and creamer on the table. He might as well know he was
not going to get his usual cup of caffe-mocha-latte-whatever he was used to
drinking every morning. All she had to offer was plain old Folgers
freeze-dried. If it was good enough for her, it was good enough for him. He
could take it or leave it.
The simple sight of the sugar bowl in
the middle of her table brought LiLi’s pouting face to mind. Like all kids, she
loved sweets. Mei had to watch her or she’d spoon sugar on her waffles. Over
the syrup. Maybe with chocolate chips. Mei’s resolve buckled. God, I
can’t do this alone anymore!
“Copy that.” Agent Lennox ’s voice rose
strong and confident from her bedroom where he was checking for listening
devices. She stared when he entered the kitchen, dumbfounded at the odd
coincidence.
“I’m sorry,” she murmured. “Did you
say something to me?” Did you hear me? Are you the answer to my
prayers?
“Sorry. Didn’t mean to be loud. Just
chatting with the boss.” The darkest chocolate eyes smiled back at her, warm
and melted. Inviting. Comforting.
“I only have instant coffee,” she
said to break the connection. What was she thinking? He didn’t care. Not
really.
