Arrest him. Take him out of the country and put him at Green’s mercy.
“Kimberly Solomon, I’m placing you under arrest for treason,” Green said as his men put hands on her.
Damon had moved quickly and gripped Ezra’s arm, stopping him from what he wanted to do—tear apart the men who were manhandling his wife.
Ex-wife.
“Don’t,” Damon whispered. “You have to let her go. We’re outnumbered. There’s a reason he’s doing it here. He’s got the full cooperation of MI6.”
“What is happening?” Kim tried to pull away but they held her tight.
“Be careful with her,” Levi barked. “I told you I’ll kill the first person who hurts her. She’s an important prisoner.”
“Levi, I swear if you take her, I’m going to kill you,” he said, his heart racing. He’d thought he’d found the worst-case scenario, but Levi had taken it a step further.
“I’m sure you’ll try,” Levi replied with a calm that unnerved Ezra. “Damon, I wish you hadn’t stopped him. I wouldn’t mind shooting him right here. Solo, your name was on the list. We know you were working with McDonald. What a pity.”
Kim had gone completely white. “That’s not true. You’re lying.”
Damon’s hand tightened as they began to haul her out. “There’s nothing you can do now. Patience. We’ll get her back if we need to. I promise, brother. Don’t make things worse right now.”
It was the word brother that did it, that calmed him and made him believe every word Damon was saying.
Kim looked to him. He waited for her to plead with him to save her, but then her shoulders straightened and her chin came up. She didn’t believe he would fight for her.
Because he’d given her no reason to think he would.
She walked out, the betrayed queen on her way to the execution, her head held high, her whole demeanor defiant even as she complied.
His queen.
He watched as Green turned and walked after her, but not before he’d winked his way.
“I’m going to kill that man,” he vowed.
“I’m going to help you,” Damon promised.
He was left shaken. Now that she was gone, he knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that he couldn’t let her go.

No Love Lost

Masters and Mercenaries: The Forgotten Book 5
Coming September 29, 2020
Click here to pre-order.
When Ezra Fain joined the ranks of the CIA, the last thing on his mind was romance. After meeting Kim Soloman, it was difficult to think of anything else. A tragic mistake drove them apart, leaving him shattered and unable to forgive the woman he loved. But when his greatest enemy threatens her life, Ezra leaps into action, prepared to do anything to try to save her.
Solo accepted long ago that she won’t get over Ezra. She’s worked for years to get back into his life, looking for any way to reignite the love they once shared. Unfortunately, nothing seems to penetrate the wall he has built between them. When she’s arrested for a crime she didn’t commit, she believes she’s on her own.
Racing across the globe, Ezra and Solo find themselves together again, caught in the crosshairs of the agency they sacrificed so much to serve. Days on the run soon turn to steamy nights, but Levi Green isn’t about to let them find their happily ever after. And when the smoke clears, the men and women of McKay-Taggart will never be the same again.

JT Malone is lucky, and he knows it. He is the heir to a billion-dollar petroleum empire, and he has a loving family. Between his good looks and his charm, he can have almost any woman he wants. The world is his oyster, and he really likes oysters. So why does it all feel so empty?
Nina Blunt is pretty sure she’s cursed. She worked her way up through the ranks at Interpol, fighting for every step with hard work and discipline. Then she lost it all because she loved the wrong person. Rebuilding her career with McKay-Taggart, she can’t help but feel lonely. It seems everyone around her is finding love and starting families. But she knows that isn’t for her. She has vowed never to make the mistake of falling in love again.
JT comes to McKay-Taggart for assistance rooting out a corporate spy, and Nina signs on to the job. Their working relationship becomes tricky, however, as their personal chemistry flares like a wildfire. Completing the assignment without giving in to the attraction that threatens to overwhelm them seems like it might be the most difficult part of the job. When danger strikes, will they be able to count on each other when the bullets are flying? If not, JT’s charmed life might just come to an end.
