“Just get out of the car, Benson.”
He got out, closed the door and took a couple of steps. But he stalled. Decided there was one thing he had to do. He rounded the hood and opened up the driver’s side door.
Jane glared up at him. “What?”
“Get out of the car.”
She didn’t argue, but got out. She folded her arms over her chest and lifted her chin defiantly.
If he took a second to think about it, he would have probably realised what a stupid move this was.
But he didn’t think about it. He dropped his bag and kissed her.
Kissed her long and deep.
She leaned into him and his body reacted.
How long had it been since he’d kissed anyone like this?
He didn’t know…didn’t care.
She tasted warm and soft…sweet. Just like he’d known she would.
His arms went around her, pulling her closer, tucking her hips against his. She made the sweetest sound.
But he had to go…

Debra Webb was born in Scottsboro, Alabama, to parents who taught her that anything is possible if you want it badly enough. She began writing at age nine. Eventually, she met and married the man of her dreams and tried some other occupations, including selling vacuum cleaners, working in a factory, a day-care centre, a hospital and a department store. When her husband joined the military, they moved to Berlin, Germany, and Debra became a secretary in the commanding general’s office. By 1985 they were back in the States and finally moved to Tennessee, to a small town where everyone knows everyone else. With the support of her husband and two beautiful daughters, Debra took up writing again, looking to mysteries and movies for inspiration.

Chapter One
Colby Agency, 2:00 p.m.
Victoria Colby-Camp collected her purse and prepared to order the car. Picking up her granddaughter at school would definitely be the highlight of this day.
After spending a good portion of the morning at the E.R. with J.T. and Eve, then dealing with that unnerving call from the bastard behind the abduction attempts, Victoria had long passed exhaustion.
She needed Lucas at her side. The government contact that served as a liaison whenever Lucas was on assignment had been unable to reach him or any member of his team. The reason, of course, was classified. Victoria had put off reaching out to Lucas again as long as she dared.
She could no longer presume the threat to her granddaughter was minimal. With that call, the danger had escalated to a new level.
This threat was not linked to Lucas or one of his personal enemies. The past had come back to haunt the Colby Agency once more.
An associate of Errol Leberman, the archnemesis of the Colby name, was behind the threat. Victoria had not recognized the caller’s voice. He had refused to give his name, pushing Victoria into a corner and limiting her options to the single one she had hoped to avoid. Reaching out to Jim.
The past few years her son had taken great strides in settling into a normal, happy life. Jim and his wife, Tasha, were immensely happy and their daughter, Jamie, thrived. This extended vacation to the remotest regions of Africa was the couple’s first getaway. Victoria had not wanted to disturb their escape. Her son so deserved to take a real vacation for the first time in his life. To experience an adventure that was for pure enjoyment and not related to his work.
