The Newlyweds

The Newlyweds
Elizabeth Bevarly

Follow the investigation by a "husband and wife" team as true crime turns to true love….Known more for her work ethic than for her romantic history, FBI agent Bridget Logan landed an assignment that involved issues too close to home–and a "husband" as part of the sting. If Agent Samuel Jones weren't so sexy, Bridget would have had no problem handling this case. But he was, and for the first time in her career, Bridget had trouble keeping a cool head under fire. A lot was at stake, though, and Bridget was determined to solve this case and move on, no harm done.But then her "husband" made love to her…and suddenly their role as a devoted couple transformed into a passion over which neither had control!

“There’s no way I’ll ever get married for real.”

Although Sam had no intention of ever walking down the aisle again, Bridget’s words surprised him. He wondered how she could make such a certain, sweeping statement.

Well, that was her business, he immediately answered himself. Not his. All he had to know about Special Agent Bridget Logan was that she was as dedicated to playing his wife, to getting the job done and to wrapping up this case as he was. He looked at her again, at the way the soft light filmed her hair in gold and made her skin glow and her eyes luminous. He noted the soft curves of her breasts and hips that even her baggy clothing couldn’t hide. In her sleep-deprived state she looked soft and tempting and vulnerable.

Yeah, he thought. They both needed to dedicate themselves to wrapping up this case.

The sooner the better.

Because birthright has its privileges and family ties run deep.

Two FBI agents pose as newlyweds to expose a black-market baby ring. With the mission under way, this “pretend” couple finds the idea of real marriage—to each other—very tantalizing….

Bridget Logan: While hunting down dangerous criminals, Bridget secretly longed for a family of her own. Being a special agent didn’t offer her much chance of true love until Samuel Jones became her partner…and her husband!

Samuel Jones: When his ex-wife betrayed him, Samuel vowed never to commit again. But then Bridget, hardworking and earnest, stole his heart and made him rethink his philosophy of love. Would following his heart give him the happiness he so deserved?

A wanted man: He was on the loose and no one knew where he would strike next. Would his love for a certain Portland General nurse calm his vengeful soul?

Because birthright has its privileges and family ties run deep.
