Description

She has a decision to make...Charming, annoying and ruggedly gorgeous, Nick Jones was full of surprises and falling for him was not part of Liz's plan, if she ever had one. After all, Liz was still holding on to the last strand of life and taking a leap of faith at that point was a bit like sky diving without a parachute. But she couldn't resist Nick. She couldn't seem to help herself. Brave, no. Foolish, maybe. Because a man who says he is an FBI agent just dropped the biggest bombshell about her new, mysterious boyfriend and his whereabouts on the day of her parent's death....he's already made it for herFlying was his passion and the only thing stopping Nick from being a fighter pilot was a college degree. Should be a piece of cake compared to his last surveillance mission in Afghanistan or his last rescue mission in Brazil. Or so he thought, until he discovered his girlfriend Liz's knack of stumbling into trouble. The girl's got a bounty on her head, literally.The Last Strand is the first of a fast paced New-Adult series with gripping action, witty banter, teasing friendships, intense sexuality and an unpredictable story line.
