The Chase

Serendipity brings them together. A stalker threatens to tear them apart.

Detective Ben Torres knows trouble when he sees it. She's standing in front of him, wearing a red dress and sending silent signals that she's afraid. Despite his attraction, after ensuring her safety as best he can, he walks away. But some women are impossible to forget.

Marisa Ramirez is trying to escape an abusive relationship and make sure her much-older boyfriend pays for his crimes. Once he's arrested and out of her life, happiness should be in reach, but her insecurities keep her from trusting the detective who doesn't hide his interest. Not only is he her brother's friend, he knows too much.

This is a spin-ff of the Hill Country Secrets series. Many of the characters from those stories make an appearance in this book.
