HIS EX WAS BEING HELD HOSTAGE BY A KILLER... But CIA agent Peter Vance has to protect the cover he's painstakingly constructed during their years apart--drug-cartel leader Baltasar Escalante believes Peter is a dealer. Planning Emily's escape is the only thing Peter can do for the woman he's never stopped loving, but the compassionate doctor refuses to bail when a dying little boy needs her specialized care. When Escalante learns the deal is a trap, Peter and Emily find themselves on the run in the Venezuelan countryside. Can Peter save his former wife from the drug lord's wrath...and can he and Emily redeem the past?
