In need of redemption, a Wyoming rogue must free a woman from a deadly cult
Private investigator Jack Moreno lives and breathes for the riskiest missions. But not even his elite training can prepare him for his latest operation: going undercover to rescue a child from a cult. In the process, he meets Sophia Hannah, a young, vulnerable nurse, who is days away from a forced marriage to the cult leader.
Sophia doesn’t know life beyond the invisible walls around her—or that her searing attraction to a handsome stranger is built on lies. Desperate to escape her fate as the next wife to be used and discarded, she turns to Jack. But as they chase freedom, they’ll confront an even more dangerous threat: the truth.
“Did I frighten you?” Jack asked gently, cursing himself and his odd, compelling need to be near her.
“It’s okay.” She touched his arm—a quick, light touch, but it was enough to send a jolt through him. Just like before.
Staring at her, he wondered if she’d felt it, too.
“I saw you were out for a walk. Since I am, too, I thought I’d ask if you minded if I joined you.” He smiled at her, wondering why she didn’t smile back. They’d agreed to be friends, after all.
“We can’t hold hands,” she blurted, her face turning a becoming shade of pink. “I have to apologize for that before. I don’t know what I was thinking. I never should have...”
“It’s okay.” Interrupting her before he did something even worse, like kiss her, he hid his smile. “You’re a good person, Sophia Hannah. You didn’t do anything wrong.”
If anything, his praise made her blush even harder.
She muttered something under her breath that sounded like “If you only knew.”
For whatever reason, I’ve always been fascinated by cults. And one day, as writers do, I got to thinking, “What if?” What if a woman had been raised in a cult and knew nothing else? To her, that would be her reality, her life, her world. And then to have that world turned upside down, both by actions inside the only home she’d ever known, as well as by a handsome outsider...
The story was fun to write. I grew to love the characters, too, and exploring the various pathways to logic. When I’d finished writing the story, I wanted to go back in a year or two and see how the people of the cult were, what choices they’d made and how they’d continued on with their lives. Yes, I’d grown attached to many of them. But the one thing I know beyond a shadow of a doubt was that Jack and Sophia had found true love in each other. I’m quite confident the others would have found their own paths to happiness, as well.
I hope you enjoy this unusual story!
Happy reading!
