By Jodie Bailey

On Sale: 4/28/2026
A killer in deadly pursuit
means nowhere is safe.

When a planted bomb detonates in her car, former army investigator Melanie Shaw knows that her witness protection cover has been compromised. Suspecting that this was an inside job, she turns to the only person she can trust: her former love, Elliott Weiss…the man she once mistakenly accused of a crime. Despite their rocky history, Elliot will do anything to take down her attackers, especially when it becomes clear there’s a target on his back too. But when secrets from the past are exposed and an old enemy reappears bent on revenge, one wrong move could be their last…

From Love Inspired Suspense: Courage. Danger. Faith.
