The Agent — Lynn Erickson

Meg Afferton's husband -- a well-known scientist -- disappeared on the very day she planned to tell him their marriage was over...and that she was pregnant.

Mark Fielder, the agent in charge of the case, feels Meg's husband may have been abducted because of his sensitive research. Or he may have gone willingly -- ready to sell information to the highest bidder. Either way, Meg could be in danger so Mark plans to watch out for her.

Meg's pretty sure she knows why Howie's not coming home -- and it has nothing to do with kidnapping or bad guys. She can't tell Mark, but it's hard to keep a secret from the man who's moved into her home -- and into her life.

Not to mention her heart...
