AGENT UNDERCOVER
DEA agent Tyler Griffin must stop a drug cartel that’s using an Idaho Christmas tree farm to smuggle narcotics across the Canadian border. But to do his job, Tyler needs the cooperation of farm owner and widowed mother Heather Larson-Randall—whose informant brother died on Tyler’s watch. Tyler knows a crucial piece of evidence is hidden somewhere on the property. But getting the protective mother to trust him is the hardest part of his mission. As threats against Heather mount, he vows to keep her and her child safe...and clear the farm of danger before Christmas.

“You really do believe my brother was murdered?” Heather asked.
Tyler nodded. “I do. Whatever information he had found about the drug mastermind cost him his life.”
And now put her and her son in danger.
She shook her head. “No, you cost him his life. You pushed him to do something he wasn’t trained to do.”
The sharp tip of her barb hit him squarely in the gut. “A fact I will have to live with,” Tyler stated with more regret than she could possibly know. “Believe me, I wish I had done things differently.”
Tyler had been doing his job. A job that wasn’t finished. “If I am going to bring his murderers to justice, I need to find the notebook he told me he had.”
She held his gaze. “That’s why you broke into the house.”
“I didn’t break in. As I said, your brother gave me a key. He’d said if anything happened to him that I’d find what I needed here at the farm.”
Well, something had happened. Something terrible. And he wasn’t going to let anything happen to Heather and her boy.

This book is dedicated to my family for all the support

“Good night, sweet boy.” Heather Larson-Randall leaned in to kiss her six-year-old son’s forehead.
“Night, Mommy.” Colin snuggled deeper beneath the thick comforter. He lay in the twin-size bed in the room that once had been Heather’s.
Gone were the decorations of her adolescence—posters of the latest celebrity heartthrob and her 4-H ribbons and trophies. It had taken the past three days to transform the room in a superhero motif that would have made Ken, her late husband, proud.
