Close Pursuit

Alex has found the perfect hiding place from his father's criminal empire—serving with a medical aid organization in a remote corner of the world. But even here, his past is closing in. His newly assigned nurse partner, Katie, with her uncanny ability to see through his carefully constructed walls, is the last complication he needs—and the one person he can't resist.

When they rescue an orphaned baby, their humanitarian mission suddenly turns deadly. Running for their lives with a newborn, they must rely on each other as bullets fly and betrayals mount. Yet they're each hiding dangerous secrets that could destroy everything they're fighting to protect.

Is Alex's father behind the attacks? The local government? Or is there something about this mysterious infant that makes them all targets? As their pursuers close in, will Katie sacrifice everything she's worked for to protect the man and child she's come to love? Can Alex abandon his family’s legacy for a chance to build a family of his own? Surrounded by secrets, lies, and enemies, they discover love is the deadliest risk of all.
