“There’s no way I’ll ever get married for real.”
Although Sam had no intention of ever walking down the aisle again, Bridget’s words surprised him. He wondered how she could make such a certain, sweeping statement.
Well, that was her business, he immediately answered himself. Not his. All he had to know about Special Agent Bridget Logan was that she was as dedicated to playing his wife, to getting the job done and to wrapping up this case as he was. He looked at her again, at the way the soft light filmed her hair in gold and made her skin glow and her eyes luminous. He noted the soft curves of her breasts and hips that even her baggy clothing couldn’t hide. In her sleep-deprived state she looked soft and tempting and vulnerable.
Yeah, he thought. They both needed to dedicate themselves to wrapping up this case.
The sooner the better.

Because birthright has its privileges and family ties run deep.
Two FBI agents pose as newlyweds to expose a black-market baby ring. With the mission under way, this “pretend” couple finds the idea of real marriage—to each other—very tantalizing….
Bridget Logan: While hunting down dangerous criminals, Bridget secretly longed for a family of her own. Being a special agent didn’t offer her much chance of true love until Samuel Jones became her partner…and her husband!
Samuel Jones: When his ex-wife betrayed him, Samuel vowed never to commit again. But then Bridget, hardworking and earnest, stole his heart and made him rethink his philosophy of love. Would following his heart give him the happiness he so deserved?
A wanted man: He was on the loose and no one knew where he would strike next. Would his love for a certain Portland General nurse calm his vengeful soul?
Because birthright has its privileges and family ties run deep.

B ridget Logan knew a lot of things about a lot of things. She knew the winner of every World Series since 1986. She knew how to speak Spanish, French and German. She knew pi to the twenty-seventh character. She knew how to make her whites whiter and her colors brighter. She knew the secret to beautiful skin. She knew all the lyrics to “Louie, Louie.” Really. She even knew how to program her VCR.
She also knew how to bug a room so that nobody, but nobody, could tell it was wired. And she knew how to change her entire appearance with a few simple tricks and props that fit nicely into a nondescript handbag. And she knew how to disassemble and reassemble her .38 revolver, and how to hold it steady and shoot so that the bullet went straight through the white paper heart on the black silhouette at target practice.
But she didn’t know nothin’ ’bout birthin’ babies.
Nor did she have any desire to learn. Because Bridget Logan was on the fast track in her career, a rising star at the Federal Bureau of Investigations. She had risen so quickly, in fact, that—as of a week ago, anyway—she’d been awarded a field assignment to a counterterrorist task force in Vienna, a plum appointment that even some veteran agents had been vying to win, and which would have boosted her into a very elite investigation group at the tender age of twenty-five.
