      A cop confronts a deadly killer and explosive secrets in the latest chapter of The Coltons of Shadow Creek!

      For bomb squad K-9 officer Donovan Colton, nothing about a failed car bombing in his Texas hometown makes sense. Why would anyone target quiet, secretive accountant Bellamy Reeves, and why does his canine partner instantly trust her? Donovan is searching for his own mysterious past, but he can’t resist solving the riddle that is beautiful Bellamy.

      After experiencing a tragic loss, Bellamy knows how hard it can be to trust. Threatened by her former employer, she is reluctant to open up to dangerously sexy Donovan—or his adorable dog! But the harder Donovan works to keep her safe, the more Bellamy longs to let what’s between them turn into something more—even as their lives are poised to be blown apart…

      The Coltons of Shadow Creek

      “How close were you to the car?”

      “I’d gotten in and realized I hadn’t closed the trunk. I was behind the car when it just—” Bellamy broke off, the disbelief still clear in her eyes. “When it just exploded.”

      “We’re going to take a look at it but first I need Alex to sniff the rest of the cars that are still here so we can get these people out of here. Can you wait for me?”

      “Where else am I going to go?”

      For reasons Donovan couldn’t explain, he sensed there was something more in her comment. Something that went well beyond a car bomb or the shaky aftereffects of surviving a crime.

      Something terrible had taken the light out of her beautiful gray eyes.

      And he was determined to find out why.

      Her parents had asked her to work the store this evening, their annual holiday event with the local men’s club a highlight of their year. She’d been happy to do it, the familiar work of managing the counter and ringing up purchases at Whisperwood’s only corner store something she’d been doing since childhood. It was a
