Killer Country Reunion

Her family’s being eliminated, one by one...

But he won’t let her be next

After gunmen attack Caroline Marsh, she’s stunned that she survives—and shocked that her rescuer is her ex-fiancé, Zane Coleman. With her family’s safety on the line, there’s no time for grudges over the past. The killers on her trail won’t give up easily. And although Zane already left her once, for her own protection, he’s not about to lose Caroline again.

JENNA NIGHT comes from a family of Southern-born natural storytellers. Her parents were avid readers and the house was always filled with books. No wonder she grew up wanting to tell her own stories. She’s lived on both coasts, but currently resides in the inland northwest, where she’s astonished by the occasional glimpse of a moose, a herd of elk or a soaring eagle.

“We need to go, Caroline. Now.”

Zane shoved her ahead of him. The headlights bearing down on them grew even brighter. The screaming of the tow truck engine grew shriller. They were just at the edge of the highway when Zane heard the crash of an impact as the heavily reinforced truck plowed into their pickup.

Something hit him behind his right knee, knocking him to the ground and sending him tumbling down an embankment. He heard other pieces of debris crashing into the trees and underbrush around him. Then the lights from the attacking truck suddenly went out and Zane was falling in darkness. Finally, he came to a stop.

“Caroline?” he called out, heart thundering in his chest and sick with fear that she’d been hurt.

She didn’t answer.

He got to his feet, relieved to find that his knee wasn’t badly injured, and called her name again. And again, he didn’t hear her respond.

Zane frantically looked around. Caroline had been beside him just a minute ago. Now she was gone...

Dear Reader,

We can’t get through life without making a few assumptions. But sometimes what we assume about a person isn’t true. Or maybe it isn’t true any longer. All of us have been in a situation where we’d appreciate forgiveness and another chance.

I hope you enjoyed reading about Caroline and Zane as they learned to let go of the past and give each other room to grow into the person each of them was meant to be. And that, of course, opened up the pathway to love.

One of the things I enjoy most about writing for Love Inspired Suspense is connecting with my readers. You can find me at my website, Jennanight.com, on my Jenna Night Facebook page, or you can follow me on Twitter, @Night_Jenna. My email address is [email protected]. I’d love to hear from you.
