Undercover Twin

A deadly identity swap...

The first exciting Twins Separated at Birth novel

Audrey Clark never knew she was a twin—until she stumbled onto a covert operation. Now with her FBI agent sister shot and in critical condition, going undercover with Agent Lee Benson is the only way to protect her newfound twin. And as her pretend husband, Lee must keep Audrey safe...or pay twice the deadly price.

HEATHER WOODHAVEN earned her pilot’s license, rode a hot-air balloon over the safari lands of Kenya, parasailed over Caribbean seas, lived through an accidental detour onto a black-diamond ski trail in Aspen and snorkeled among stingrays before becoming a mother of three and wife of one. She channels her love for adventure into writing characters who find themselves in extraordinary circumstances.

“You want me to be a spy, don’t you? What exactly does taking her place involve?” Audrey asked in hushed tones.

“We have a very well-developed cover in place,” Lee replied. “Essentially we turn dirty money into clean—”

“Laundering money.” She blew out a long breath. “You’re asking me to pretend to be a criminal?”

“We go in and shake some hands, get on the network and get out with the evidence.”

“A fact-finding mission.” She placed a hand on her stomach and shook her head. “This is going to be a stretch for me. But I’ve also lived my life feeling like there was a giant puzzle piece missing, and finding I have a sister...” She clasped her hands together and shook her head. “I’ll do it. But I have conditions.”

If Audrey took Kendra’s place, she’d definitely be in danger, but at least Lee could be in control of keeping her safe. If she didn’t go through with the mission, the threat would never go away.

This was their only chance.

Dear Reader,

I hope you enjoyed Audrey’s unexpected adventure with Lee. I do try to do hands-on research as much as possible but often it’s simply not possible. While I earned my solo pilot’s license at a young age, most people don’t know that the moment after I earned it, I never flew again. I loved flying with an instructor by my side. But once I was alone, flying over Iowa skies and required to perform touch-and-go landings, I stepped out of the plane barely able to walk before I about lost my lunch. I think I’d be just as terrified if piloting a hot-air balloon alone, though I do have wonderful memories of soaring in one over Kenya’s Maasai Mara National Reserve.

Often news stories inspire me, as well. While this is entirely a work of fiction, I marveled at the FBI’s takedown of Phantom Secure, an encrypted communication service utilized by international organized crime. I’ve also had a story about separated twins percolating for years. I’m thrilled the story ideas meshed together so well, and I can’t wait for you to read Kendra’s story,
