Order FALSE EVIDENCE now to get it at a special pre-order price and start reading midnight Eastern Time on December 19th.

Holidays can be deadly.

Alexandra Vargas hasn’t spoken to JT Talon in seven years. She’s moved on from the heartbreak, and now has the baby—and life—she always wanted. But everything changes on a cold December evening when a traffic stop goes horribly wrong, and Alexandra finds herself on the run with only one possible place to hide: JT’s remote mountain cabin, the same place where, eleven years ago, she broke their engagement a week before the wedding.

JT must face his worst nightmare when he learns that not only is the love of his life a fugitive from the police, but also he must now step up and smuggle the child he never wanted to safety.

Past and present collide as JT and Alexandra struggle to find their way back to each other and heal the rift that has long separated them. But their past still threatens their future, and no one is safe until the truth behind every deception is revealed.

I've been asked a lot in the last few months which book to read (or re-read) in preparation for FALSE EVIDENCE. While FALSE EVIDENCE stands alone, it is also a direct sequel to CONCRETE EVIDENCE and includes cameos by other Evidence series couples. CONCRETE EVIDENCE is the book that introduced JT Talon and Alexandra Vargas, and it's the only book in the series in which they play a major role.

She wants revenge. He wants her.
Blackballed from underwater archaeology after accusations of artifact trafficking, Erica Kesling has a new job and a new life on the other side of the country and is working to clear her name. She's closing in on her goal when she's distracted by a sexy, charismatic intern who makes her want something other than revenge.

But Lee Scott is no intern. He's looking for the lead conspirator in an international artifact smuggling scheme, and Erica is his prime suspect. He'll do whatever it takes to win her trust and get her to reveal her secrets, even seduce her.
