The Red Hand Conspiracy, Book Two
What should be a wonderful trip to Paris turns menacing when
Gwen Morningstar's daughter is kidnapped by The Red Hand terrorist group.
Fortunately, Jean-Luc LeFevre of France's Counterterrorism Unit is there to
rescue her little girl. Gwen is grateful, but her need to apprehend the
abductors must override any desire she feels for the handsome agent with his
own brand of justice...and danger.
Jean-Luc is not pleased when Gwen, a crime scene
photographer with just enough training to get them killed, is assigned to work
with him. Not only does she take too many risks, she drives him to distraction.
As Gwen and Jean-Luc track the terrorists, their feelings
for each other grow as fast as the danger. Jean-Luc is determined to protect
Gwen and her daughter, but the sinister grasp of The Red Hand is strong and
far-reaching. It will take more than love to keep them all safe.

Excerpt:
Jean-Luc backed a very angry Gwen against the wall of the
elevator. He didn’t care if fellow passengers overheard what he had to say.
“You make me so damned mad.” Turquoise eyes snapped at him. “You and your
American female aggressiveness.”
“A...aggressiveness?” Her eyes narrowed and her hand slapped
his chest. Bracelets jangled. “Look, you arrogant Frenchman. You will not tell
me what to do or how to take care of my daughter.”
“I will keep you both safe, by damn.”
“I can protect myself and my daughter, buster.” She hiked
her chin and gave him a major dose of attitude.
How he’d like to conquer her, bend her to his will. He
grabbed her shoulders and pressed against her. Even in his anger, he noted how
good she felt. His gaze drifted down to her parted lips. She was affected, too;
angry, but turned on.
“I will tell you what I damn well please, you bossy, brassy
woman.” Was his head lowering? No. Hell no. Surely he wasn’t intent on kissing
her. Not again. Not when she drove him freakin’ nuts. Suddenly his lips made
contact, crushing hers and driving all rational thoughts from his mind.
