Force of Corruption

By: E.N. Chanting

"If I tell you that, I may have to kill you."

Paige Patterson hopes her new love interest is joking, she laughs.

Rhett Baker is mostly teasing, though he's not ready to explain his chosen career, just yet.

Their first date is filled with laughter and their chemistry is explosive. After a whirlwind weekend, Rhett disappears. Paige hardly has time to process Rhett's absence when a childhood friend is arrested for a shocking crime.

Now she must fight to prove her friend's innocence. The evidence is there, but fellow officers seem to raise roadblocks at every turn. The secret she uncovers goes to the core of the department. Paige and Rhett are pulled into a battle for their lives as they expose corruption and depravity like they've never experienced before. Falling in love may doom them to heartbreak, or it might be the very thing that saves them. Which is more powerful, the force of attraction or the force of corruption?

This story is told in first person, present, dual POV. The two main characters alternate their POV. Paige is somewhat of a unicorn, she is well trained as a sniper and fighter despite her small size, she is proficient. Rhett is a busy entrepreneur who has never had a relationship and isn't looking for one. The moment their paths cross, the attraction between them makes itself known. They both want to see where this attraction will lead. They are surprised by how quickly the attraction grows into more. As Paige deals with some problems at the police department where she works, Rhett keeps fighting against the bad guys he chases for his career. Rhett and his two partners and long time friends, head a large team of like minded, capable experts. Paige's neighbor, Nova, is an interesting addition to this motley crew of characters. As their worlds become more closely intertwined they all have battles to face and ghosts from their pasts, sometimes literally.
