“I know that.”

“We need him alive so he can tell us where the missing girls are.”

“I said, I know.” Caisey blew out a breath. “That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t have felt better at least.”

“You don’t need it.”

She grasped the handle of her bag, her other hand on the lever to open the door. “Wish me luck?”

He grinned. “I can do better than that.”

His hand circled the back of her neck and squeezed, imparting his strength to her jumbled up stomach. And then he prayed for God’s protection over her and the agents providing backup.

Caisey climbed out. “Don’t shoot your foot off while I’m gone.”

Present

 

Caisey’s head swam. She tried to breathe but there was no air. Her chest heaved as she sucked in gulp after gulp of nothing. She needed to get out of there, but she was at the mercy of a killer.

God, don’t let me die.

She should have brought her gun.

As a spy, Sabine Laduca works alone. But when she investigates her brother's murder, she's forced into an uneasy alliance with his Delta Force team leader. The CIA taught Sabine to trust no one, and sergeant major Doug Richardson is no exception. The handsome soldier hides his own secrets, but nothing will stop Sabine from finding out who killed her brother. Not even when the CIA declares her rogue. Now not only is the killer after her, so is the agency. For the first time, she needs someone—Doug. Because only he can help her find the truth…and only he can keep her safe….

 

Available September 2014 – Star Witness (Harlequin’s Love Inspired Suspense)

 

Mackenzie Winters runs an Arts Center for at-risk teens. But when her identity is exposed, she's told there's a mole in the Witness Protection Program. Aaron Hanning is a Delta Force soldier. Protecting Mackenzie is just a favor for his brother, the US Marshal, until he realizes how big a target this woman is. Aaron can't fail again, so he pulls out all the stops to protect Mackenzie. But when she sacrifices herself for the sake of justice, both Mackenzie and Aaron realize that only by yielding to God do they have a prayer of staying alive.

Lisa Phillips is
a British ex-pat who grew up an hour outside of London. Lisa attended Calvary Chapel Bible College where she met her husband. He's from California, but nobody's perfect. It wasn't until her Bible College graduation that she figured out she was a writer (someone told her). Since then she's taken the Apprentice and Journeyman writing courses with the Christian Writers Guild, and discovered a penchant for high-stakes stories of mayhem and disaster where you can find made-for-each-other love that always ends in happily ever after.

Lisa can be found in Idaho wearing either flip-flops or cowgirl boots, depending on the season. She leads worship with her husband at their local church. Together they have two children--a sparkly Little Princess and a Mini Daddy--and two bunny rabbits.
