The Sleeping Assassin — Michelle Hamilton

Emma McCordick, a reclusive computer science teacher from Arizona, has always preferred scaling the side of a mountain to social situations. Awkward but beautiful, Emma fills her days with volunteering at the local orphanage where she was raised and dealing with her college students' exam papers. But with one phone call, her sedate and isolated life shatters, pulling her into a world of espionage, intrigue and murder. In a place where your best friend can be your enemy, Emma is unsure whom to trust until she meets Jozef. He's a mercenary and a thief, and she's an assassin for the NSA, but they must join forces in order to save their lives. They are in a race against time, terrorists and betrayals that could either ignite the roaring passion ricocheting between them or tear them apart.
