PERILOUS PURSUIT
It’s been five years since Shiloh Evans encountered the murderous gold hunters seeking Blackbeard’s hidden stash. After they killed her policewoman cousin, Shiloh left town to regroup, and earn her own police badge. Because she would see this case solved—someday. She just didn’t expect the killers to attack her new home in Treasure Point, Georgia…on the same day her ex-fiancé arrived in town. Adam Cole has tried to overcome his love for Shiloh. But he won’t just sit by when she’s in danger. Working together, they plan a trap. But springing it requires getting to centuries-buried treasure before the killers get to them.
Nothing could have kept the relief that they were both all right from showing on her face.
Adam must have seen it, because he grinned.
“See, I knew you still cared. At least a little,” he teased.
He was lucky she didn’t want the hassle of an internal affairs investigation—because she wanted nothing more than to slap that grin off of his face.
“You don’t get how serious this is, do you?” Shiloh muttered between clenched teeth. She scanned the area, unable to suppress a shiver. Gut instinct said someone was out there. Watching.
“I get it.” Adam’s voice sobered. “I know that someone tried…” His voice trailed off.
“Tried to kill us,” she finished for him.
Frustration and fear fought for dominance. Shiloh took a few deep breaths, tried to stay calm, but finally could hold back no longer. She kicked the side of the car. When she considered the incident with the snake that morning, she knew the two events had to be connected. And that could only mean one thing.
They’d found her.
