The past never stays buried for long, and when ex-CIA
operative Simone Sheridan’s world flips on end, the
charade she’s been living begins to crumble; and as
reality closes in, Simone must fight to protect her family
from a vicious assassin intent on destroying the people
she loves.

Excerpt

Simone sat in silence at one end of the table and Reece
sat at the other, trying not to stare at his ex-wife. She
looked the same. The curve of her cheek, the soft chestnut
sheen of her hair. If he hadn’t known differently, he’d
have thought the morning was no different from any of the
others they’d shared during their marriage.

Except that somehow he’d crossed through the mirror,
everything turned inside out as if he were Alice through
the looking glass.

His head was insisting that what was done was done. That
he needed to let it go and move on. But his heart wasn’t
having any of that. His heart wanted his wife back. Wanted
the life they’d shared…And nothing—not even the pain of
knowing that none of it had been real—could change that
fact.

God, what a mess. And to top it off, in less than an hour,
they were heading into what was quite possibly a trap…
