Crisis of Identity
by
Denise Moncrief
Tess Copeland is an operator. Her motto? Necessity is the
mother of a good a con. When Hurricane Irving slams into the Texas Gulf coast,
Tess seizes the opportunity to escape her past by hijacking a dead woman’s
life, but Shelby Coleman’s was the wrong identity to steal. And the cop that
trails her? He’s a U.S. Marshall with the Fugitive Task Force for the northern
district of Illinois. Tess left Chicago because the criminal justice system
gave her no choice. Now she’s on the run from ghosts of misdeeds past—both hers
and Shelby’s.
Enter Trevor Smith, a pseudo-cowboy from Houston, Texas,
with good looks, a quick tongue, and testosterone poisoning. Will Tess succumb
to his questionable charms and become his damsel in distress? She doesn’t have
to faint at his feet—she’s capable of handling just about anything. But will
she choose to let Trevor be the man? When Tess kidnaps her niece, her life
changes. She must make some hard decisions. Does she trust the lawman that
promises her redemption, or does she trust the cowboy that promises her nothing
but himself?
Excerpt:
I raced across the remaining bit of buckled concrete toward hope, barely reaching the dock in time to scramble aboard the last boat for the mainland. Glancing around the small craft, I relaxed and settled into my seat. Jake was not on board as I worried he would be. Even though I left him arguing with the site supervisor, I still feared he would stop me from leaving.
Peering toward the far shore, my goal in sight, I sucked in one ragged breath as the boat headed into the bay. But just a glimpse of movement drew my attention back to the island. I turned to see Jake rushing toward the ramshackle dock and pulling himself up short when he reached the edge. Across the gently slapping surf, his eyes met mine and I was certain the chase wasn't over.
