A CHILD'S LIFE IS AT STAKE
When Christopher Jordan sees the fear in Ashley Wilson's eyes, he knows he can't let her request for help go unanswered. Despite their tumultuous history, he's the only person his ex-fiancée can trust to find her kidnapped nephew. But how can Christopher trust her when he finds out that Ashley's "nephew" is actually his son, the one she never told him about? With a terrorist cell convinced Ashley holds the key to accessing top secret government files, time is running out. And Christopher will stop at nothing to bring their little boy home in time for Christmas.
HIGH-STAKES HOLIDAY REUNION is the third in Ms. Barritt's The Security Experts series. The books Key Witness and Lifeline easily stand alone, but involve the same security company.
I enjoyed getting to know Christopher and Ashley. I figured that somehow Ashley was the target behind her brother's and nephew's disappearance, so I had to keep reading to see what she did that would bring terrorists down on her head to the point that they'd chase her through a mall filled with Christmas shoppers firing shots.
If you like romantic suspense, then check out HIGH-STAKES HOLIDAY REUNION. It has a touch of Christmas, a lot of action, and enough red-herrings to keep the pages turning.
