Overview

From the beginning, Skyler Madison’s skill, strength and expertise are obvious. She is a legend at International Airlines as its youngest and only female Captain. Tall, beautiful, athletic, Skyler looks more like a fashion model than an airline pilot. She also has a secret. Behind the impressive public persona is an equally impressive covert one. She is a Special Agent for the Intelligence branch of the Justice Department.

Personal tragedy has imprinted on her a passion for justice equal to that of flying. Skyler is not only stunning and physically impressive, she is intelligent and a brilliant strategist. Working as a field agent for Jim Stryker, the director of the division, has given her an opportunity to employ all of her many facets.
Alexander Springfield is a corporate attorney and real estate investor. He reached his goal of becoming a multi-millionaire before the age of thirty, but found the wealth, power and prestige to be very empty after his sister, a New York City police officer, was killed in the line of duty. Grief stricken, he contacts Jim Stryker and asks to be part of the fight against the bad guys. Jim puts him to work immediately and Alex is now one of his top covert agents. Physically, he is tall, dark and handsome, of course, with penetrating blue eyes and a quick, killer smile.

Flight Into Danger brings Stryker’s two top agents together on a case involving drugs, murder and betrayal. Initially, Alex is brought in to investigate Skye when evidence seems to indicate she jumped to the other side. He clears her, but not before his assignment turns into a personal obsession. He watches her; he follows her and he falls in love with her.

Skyler’s finely tuned instincts kick in when she spots Alex several times. For the first time in his career, he is made by his quarry. He covers by telling her he has been pursuing her, waiting for the opportunity to ask her to dinner. He thinks the perfect way to keep an eye on her is to date her. Attraction and curiosity motivate her to accept and the romance begins. She is unaware of his status in the Department and when she finds out, sparks fly. All the friction only makes her eventual surrender hotter, sweeter and incredibly satisfying.

Skyler is Special Agent in Charge of a team of experts from the Justice Department working with British authorities to infiltrate and bring down the high end drug trade among London’s elite. She is successful, but bringing the criminals to justice doesn’t end the adventure. The kingpin makes an escape with the help of someone on the inside. There is a traitor in the department. Someone who knows Skye and there are multiple attempts, both subtle and violent, to get her off the case. It becomes apparent that she is a target and Alex becomes her shield as well as her shadow.

Who is the mole? What sacrifices will Skye have to make to uncover the truth? Will Alex be able to melt the steel and ice around Skye’s heart and push her to a commitment?
