The USA Today–bestselling authors spin off the unforgettable Colby Agency series with a nail-biting romance of undercover intrigue and high-level betrayal. As a former Interpol agent, private detective Aidan Abbot knows his way around covert operations at the highest levels. But nothing could have prepared him for his latest mission: infiltrating family dynamics. His new client, Francesca “Frankie” Leone, believes her late father, a US Army general, was framed for treason and has a heartbreaking reason to suspect her own mother was behind it. Suddenly, Aidan is deep undercover as Frankie’s fiancé, investigating his “future MIL” with unusual dinner-table access. But the closer he gets to the truth, the more Aidan wants to protect the woman he was never supposed to really fall for. Plus a bonus short story by USA Today–bestselling author Delores Fossen “This newest of The Colby Agency has it all, romance, great mystery and quite a thriller . . . I must tell you I read everything these ladies write, and the spell that they weave is magic.” —PRG (Paranormal Romance Guild)
