So when her boss at MI6 showed her the door, she was left aimless, homeless and driftingβand suddenly winging back to Pittsburgh. A bored agent was a bad thing. Her brother Killian asked his friends at Walsh-Tyndale if there was a job she could do while she figured herself out. She finds herself as a temp secretary for Vaughn Willard, a newly promoted managerβand a newly made widower. Vaughn didnβt expect to be a widower. Finding a laundering scheme in the Walsh-Tyndale books was a fluke. The launderers didnβt see it that way and Vaughnβs wife paid with her life. He simply wants to get his life back on a track and Bridget was there to help. Especially when the bad guys come back to try and make sure Vaughn canβt testify against them. Everything Bridget learned from her agent days comes rushing back when Vaughnβs life is threatened. They have to run, and with Vaughnβs son in tow, they make their way through Midwest trying to figure out to keep themselves safe, how to bring the launderers to justiceβ and how to deal with the dangerous attraction they feel for each other.
