Mistaken Identity

This is the second book of the North Security And Investigations series containing 81,000 words of romantic suspense. Betrayed by Blood. Mistaken for Dead. Resurrected by Love. Four days before her death, Tina Wellington's life takes an unexpected turn when she meets Gage Camble—new sexy member of the country club—and they immediately hit it off. One day later, Tina's prospective romance with Gage is shaken to the core upon meeting Ethan Parker, part of the security team that her father, State Representative Roger Wellington, hired for an upcoming rally on gun control. Tina is hit with the infamous "thunderbolt" when her eyes meet Ethan's for the first time. The effect is mutual and the two unexpectedly succumb to an explosion of passion and emotions neither are prepared for. Ethan is floored by Tina Wellington, confused by these sudden overpowering feelings he's never experienced before with anyone. When Tina shows up at his door late one night, wanting to be with him again, he can't resist. Except for this time, as their passion is sated, he realizes something is wrong…the feelings and emotions that swept him away two days earlier—are gone. His heart is in shambles as he struggles to figure out what happened, how something so strong and consuming could just disappear without a trace. His troubled mind and heart receive clarity when he encounters Tina at the rally the next day—along with her twin sister that Ethan didn't know existed. When the reality of his actions set in, he fights his feelings for Tina—which are still burning strong—and rejects her advances, convinced that whatever could have been…can be no more. His guilt turns to remorse in an instant when, later that night, Tina Wellington is shot and killed…and Ethan's world comes crashing down. Now, Ethan—along with the rest of his team—have been hired to protect Tina's sister, Tonya, who betrayed Tina in the worst way; a betrayal that inadvertently placed Tina in the vulnerable situation that ended up taking her life. Ethan can hardly look at Tonya without feelings of bitterness, pain, and anger overflowing. And to make it all worse…every time he lays eyes on Tonya, he sees Tina's face, keeping the wounds in his heart raw and bleeding.
