Uncovering the past
May be the only way to survive
After security specialist Chloe Spencer witnesses a murder on her webcam, the killer faces the camera with a threat: return his disc, or she’s next. Unsure what he’s after, Chloe uses an alias and runs…until she lands in Sheriff Ethan Hoyt’s jurisdiction. When the killer finds her, Chloe must stand alone or trust Ethan—with the secrets of her past, her life…and her heart.

The woman was trouble.
He glanced at her in the passenger seat. But she also intrigued him. Not that he’d do anything about it. Chloe had too many secrets, including her identity.
Ethan hit a deep rut in the mountain road and she groaned. “I guess a city girl like you isn’t used to roughing it,” he said.
She snorted. “You’d be surprised at some of the places I’ve been to.”
He jumped on that clue. “Tell me.”
The blood drained from her face.
The cabin came into view and he tabled his interrogation. Right now he needed to get some answers from its owner. “Stay in the car while I go in.” He opened the car door and a bullet whizzed over the top of his head. “Get down!”
“This is starting to tick me off.”
Ethan couldn’t believe it. Someone was shooting at them and she wasn’t afraid? “What kind of life have you really led?”
Chloe didn’t answer.
Didn’t matter. Either way, that life was now his to protect.
I love strong, independent women with unique personalities, and rugged, protective men who don’t know quite what to think of the women who land on their doorsteps. Throw in a good dose of suspense and danger, an attack-trained poodle, a precocious six-year-old child, and I’m a happy writer. Let me know if you enjoyed reading about Chloe and Ethan’s adventures as much as I enjoyed writing them. You can contact me through my website, www.lizshoaf.com.

To my own hero, Captain James W. Phelps. Over the years we have traveled the long and winding path that God set us upon. There’s been laughter and tears, but no matter what, we always knew God was there every step of the way, ready to catch us if we fell. I have no doubt that you love me, and that’s a very precious commodity.
To my editor, Dina Davis, who never fails to catch my plot problems. :) Thanks for being in my corner! And to her boss, Tina, who has final approval of all books. The art department always does such a fantastic job, so a shout-out to all you guys who work behind the scenes to make every book possible.
