Undercover lover
A quiet, civilian life on Whidbey Island sounded great to navy lawyer Joy Alexander. But when navy SEAL-turned-FBI agent Brad Iverson shows up on her doorstep bruised and bleeding, she realizes it’s not so easy to leave the past behind. Even harder to forget are the feelings she once had for Brad.
Brad’s on an undercover operation, one that’s targeting potential terrorists...and unintentionally bringing danger to Joy. They’ll have to work together again, except this time it’s not only justice they’re after—it’s survival. If they make it that far, they won’t waste a second chance at love.
“Come here, Joy.”
His tone indicated that his thoughts were elsewhere.
“Have you heard a word I’ve said?” she asked.
“Come. Here.”
She heard him pat the sofa cushion next to him.
“Brad...” She allowed herself to feel how exhausted she really was.
“I’m not going to kiss you. Promise.”
Why not?
She took two short steps and lowered herself onto the sofa. Brad reached for her waist and pulled her down beside him.
She could feel the heat of his body through the thickness of her terry robe. He might not want to kiss her but she wanted to kiss him. Badly.
“Lean your head against me.” He wrapped his arm around her, and she put her head on his shoulder. After a few minutes she realized he was serious—this wasn’t going to be a lovemaking session.
“Brad? What exactly is this about?”
First, a big thank-you for purchasing this book, the next Whidbey Island title. The success of this series is all due to your incredible support and encouragement.
Ever since Joy Alexander was briefly introduced in Navy Christmas, I knew she had to have her own story. Joy is a former navy JAG who picked Whidbey Island as the place to settle and begin her civilian career as an attorney after a decade in the navy. Her plans for a quiet retreat into the community are overturned when a former work colleague, Brad Iverson, shows up at her kitchen door the same morning she’s starting her new job. Brad quickly becomes a big part of her life, just as he did when they worked together on a case to free a Guantánamo Bay prisoner who was wrongly accused of terrorist activity.
I like to explore how heroes and heroines react under different circumstances. For instance, Joy and Brad first met when she was an officer and he was enlisted; anything but a professional relationship wasn’t allowed. When Navy Justice opens, they’re both civilians. Nothing is keeping them from a relationship—except their inner conflicts. And, of course, a bad guy or two!
This has been the most challenging book to write in the Whidbey Island series so far, but also the most rewarding as Joy and Brad have to dig deep to find the right answers for themselves and the possibility of a life together.
