Last Hit:
Reloaded (Hitman Series) Book 2.5
Blurb
There was a time when Nick loved the fear
he instilled in his enemies. His tattoos alone promised danger, but it was the
look in his eyes that delivered on it. A contract killer since he was just a
boy, Nick has now forged a new life and a new identity with the woman who
followed him, captured him, and changed him.
He terrified Daisy. Once. But she
couldn't resist, and she ignored every warning. It paid off. Now she's part of
a new beginning, a fresh start in America helping him to leave behind a
reckless and violent past as a professional killer. But the past is never easy
to outrun, especially when so much of it thrives on revenge.
A new threat has emerged from the
shadows, and now Nick and Daisy have no choice but to rely on
Nick's killer
skills to protect them from everything they've tried so hard to escape.
Between each caress I tell her how she consumes me. “I think
of you always. Art is about passion. In every curve, I see your breast and in
every face, I see your lips. In rolling hills of landscapes, I envision the dip
in your waist and the rise of your hip. In the tendrils of vines, I see your
honey hair entangling me.” The depths of my obsession are laid bare for her. If
I were to lose her, I would be nothing. I would burn myself to ashes so that
the winds could carry me to the four corners and where each molecule would
search endlessly for her.
“You’re always with me, Nick. In my heart and mind and soul.
I promise you,” she gasps.
“Then show me how much you want me to fill you. Show me your
desire.”
=============================================================
As he turns away, I call to him softly, “Detective McFadden,
I would not endanger a soul on that campus. My beloved attends classes there,
and it is my greatest desire that she be safe and happy. There are many reasons
why I am not the man you seek.”
He swings back quickly. “I don’t think you are the
university shooter, if that’s what you’re implying.”
“I imply nothing. I am responding to your litany of
complaints and questions about my existence. Your attention does not frighten
me, but do not mistake this. If you endanger Daisy or her father in any way,
there will not be enough pieces left of you for even your loved ones to
identify.”
At my threat, he gives me a bemused smile. “But you don’t
give a rat’s ass about yourself?”
“I can take care of myself, Detective, and anyone that I
love.” The chill is seeping into my bones, and I need to go inside and warm
myself in the sunshine of Daisy’s love. “Good evening to you.” I nod and open
the front door of the building.
==============================================================
Whatever it was, the women in my classes steer clear of me.
I can’t blame Nick. He wants to keep me safe, and I love him
for it. After my kidnapping last year by Yuri and Vasily, I don’t mind his
hovering. It makes me feel secure, even if it chases away any chance of
friendship with “regular” people.
As I swipe my iPad and open the text to the class’s lesson,
I tell myself that these things don’t matter. That the approval of my peers
does not matter to me. I have Nick, and that should be everything.
But in some ways, not having any girlfriends to chat with
makes me feel as if I am still that isolated young woman living in a boarded-up
house with my father. I had no friends then, either. And funnily enough, I
thought that friends and life would come easily once I escaped his house. And
while Nick blazed his way into my life like a comet and paved a path for me, I
still struggle with everyday things.
Like small talk. I never realized how much of a favor my
friend Regan did me when she took me under her wing. But now Regan’s in Texas
and I’m having to figure things out on my own.

ABOUT THE AUTHORS
Jen
Frederick lives with her husband, child, and one rambunctious dog. She's been reading stories all her life but
never imagined writing one of her own. Jen loves to hear from readers so drop

Author Jessica Claire
Jill Myles has been an incurable romantic since childhood.
She reads all the 'naughty parts' of books first, looks for a dirty joke in
just about everything, and thinks to this day that the Little House on the
Prairie books should have been steamier.
After devouring hundreds of paperback romances, mythology
books, and archaeological tomes, she decided to write a few books of her own -
stories with a wild adventure, sharp banter, and lots of super-sexy situations.
She prefers her heroes alpha and half-dressed, her heroines witty, and she
loves nothing more than watching them overcome adversity to fall into bed
together.
