    About this ebook

    Audra Nelson hopes to help the young girl escape and with luck, get her back to her family. If she fails and Juan de Vila gets the child, she will be on her way out of the country before daybreak, lost forever, and Audra will probably be dead. She is not worried about dying. The way she looks at it, she is living on borrowed time. Eric, her dead sister’s husband, has been trying to kill her for years so he can gain control of her family’s fortune. She had to flee from him in the middle of the night almost seven years ago. As long as he can’t find her, or kill her, he can’t touch the money because it is in her name. Not that the money is doing her any good. She can’t touch the accounts for fear of him being able to locate her.
    Fred Jenkins is surprised, to say the least, that she is involved in saving young girls from sex trafficking. That was not mentioned in the briefing he had with her benefactor. He was told she is the target of a hit man hired by her brother-in-law. He expected her to be cowering in fear, not tempting fate. After witnessing her activities for the past few nights, he has a feeling more than one person wants her dead.
