Grace Archer has been living a quiet life in rural Alabama
with her young daughter, Frankie. Grace has a way with
horses and is known locally as a "horse whisperer." It's a
life far different from the one she led eight years ago as
a government agent. Her peaceful existence is shattered one
night when a friend is murdered, and she's forced to go on
the run with former agent and lover Jake Kilmer, a man she
distrusts more than anyone in the world.
Middle Eastern businessman Marvot is determined to have
Grace working for him, training a pair of Arabians known as
The Pair. When Grace refuses, he comes after her,
kidnapping Frankie and forcing Grace to travel to El Tariq.
With no one to help, Grace must accept Kilmer's assistance
to get their daughter back.
Johansen's fans are going to love ON THE RUN! Racing full
tilt from almost the first page, it's a thrill a minute
adventure. Grace is a vulnerable but tough heroine, Kilmer
a finely honed hero, and together they sizzle! Marvot is
evil personified, more than a little bit mad in his pursuit
of power. This latest Johansen doesn't disappoint!
The picture was a warning: they’d found her. For eight
years Grace Archer hoped this day wouldn’t come–and knew
in her heart that it would.
She’d taken her daughter, Frankie, to a rural Alabama
horse farm that might just as well have been at the end of
the earth. But the man out to kill them would gladly
follow them that far. And now, it seems, he had.
A woman with a highly classified past, Grace had never run
from anything in her life. But as a mother, she’d do
anything to keep eight-year-old Frankie safe. Now that
safe world has been shattered, and a ferocious hunter has
been unleashed. Suddenly the agency that owed Grace its
gratitiude and protection has abandoned her and only one
ally remains: a man even more dangerous than her worst
enemy.
She hasn’t set eyes on Jake Kilmer since the catastrophic
events of eight years ago. Now he’s asking Grace to trust
him with the one thing more precious to her than life
itself. But with a ruthless criminal kingpin determined to
make her pay for the past, her and her daughter’s lives on
the line, and time running out, she just may have to put
her faith in a man who she believes has already betrayed
her once.
