His determination and unexpected caring could provide his and Zoe’s only chance at a future—if they’re alive to take it.

The killer hauled Zoe in front of him and lifted his weapon.
She stared down the barrel, and a sob caught in her throat. “I didn’t see anything.” Okay, that was a lie, but it was the first thing that had come to mind. “The lady looked dead. He was standing over her, and I assumed he killed her. I could be mistaken.”
She wanted to laugh through the sob. She was going crazy, seconds before she was going to die.
The killer grinned, more of a sneer. “Wrong place, seriously wrong time. And you just couldn’t let it lie. Well, turns out neither can they.”
“I won’t say anything. I promise.”
“Too late. You’ve drawn attention to yourself. Now they’re convinced you’ll blab, and that can’t happen. So instead of taking you to them, I’m ending this. No more scare tactics. No more threats. Problem solved.”
Them? Realization dawned on her that he was going to kill her, and she moved. As fast as she could. Everything in her screamed to run.
He pulled the trigger.
Thank you for taking the time to read this book. I so appreciate you, and the fact that it is an investment of your time and money each time I write a story. I hope you were entertained by Zoe and Jude’s journey to being a family.
The past hurt Zoe had experienced colored the way she saw the world—especially men—and how she saw the Lord. But God brought her through a journey that enabled her to trust Him and find happiness for her and her son, with Jude. He is a gracious Father who loves to draw us to Himself, and I am thankful for that every day.
