Confused and pregnant, she quits and agrees to marry Stephen, only to be thrown into a whole new nightmare. Desperate, she grabs her son and moves across the country to get away from her abusive husband and to avoid her unforgiving father.

Hiring an assistant seems to be the answer but when Graham discovers she's been accessing their high-security accounts, he realizes the cause of their predicament might be closer then he thought. Is there new assistant behind the problems they're having? If she's so innocent why does someone want to abduct her?

Can they figure it all out before Tarin's nightmare plays out? An eighty year old woman pays with her life?

Excerpt:

Chance's eyes opened, full of the sleepy wonder and then he smiled at her and held out his arms. A smile tugged at her heart as she picked him up and hugged him. The feeling was so right and so intense, she would be more than happy to stay like that for the rest of her life.

Right now though, it was time to get moving.

"Okay bud. We've got a big, fun day ahead of us. I need you to help me get you dressed and then we're going on an adventure."

As only children can, he went from barely being awake to being fired up and ready to play. She swung him up in the air. He giggled. The sound was so refreshing and filled her with so much joy. It reminded her of what was really important. His coming into this world might not have been under the best circumstances but she wouldn't give him up for anything. She would protect him with her life, which ironically, was what it felt like. She didn't know if keeping Stephen out of his life was going to be an issue or not. She couldn't see why it would be, he'd never shown an ounce of love or compassion for Chance. In fact he'd barely even acknowledged him. There was no way she was going to let him have any kind of influence on her son. The thought of him turning out like Stephen made her shudder.

What she was doing wouldn't go over well but she hoped he'd just be a little pissed off and move on, quickly. He never seemed to be bothered with anything that didn't bring him money or power. It made her wonder again, why had he married her? Something told her that although he had claimed not to want to know about her or her background or meet her family that somehow he knew. Had he known she was the daughter of a hotel magnate? If he had why hadn't he used it? Or had he? She'd have guessed love but he dispelled that idea not too long after they were married and let her know she was to be at his beck and call. She just couldn't seem to get rid of the thought that he was using her. She just couldn't figure out for what.

Chance wiggled, bringing her back to what she was supposed to be doing. She got him cleaned up and was walking to the kitchen with him when her cell phone chimed. She stopped so suddenly she actually jolted her whole body. Fear crawled up her spine and wrapped around her neck, making swallowing almost impossible.
