Excerpt
Beyond Danger
Beau could hardly believe it. His father was sixty years old! The girl sitting across from him in a booth
at the café looked like a very pregnant teenager.
“Everything’s going to be okay, Missy,” Beau Reese
said. “You don’t have to worry about
anything from now on.“
Missy sniffed back tears.
“I thought he loved me.”
Fat chance of that,
Beau thought. His dad had never loved
anyone but himself.
Running a hand over his wavy black hair, Beau took a
steadying breath. He had always wanted a
sibling. Now at the age of thirty five,
he was finally going to have one.
He felt a surge of protectiveness toward the young woman
carrying his father’s child. Hell, he
was worth more than half a billion dollars.
He would see the baby girl had everything she ever wanted.
When Missy’s lips trembled, her mother scooted out of the
booth. “I think she’s had enough for
today. I don’t want her getting overly
tired.”
Beau got up, too, leaned over and brushed a kiss on Missy’s
cheek. “If you need anything, call
me. Okay?”
Missy swallowed.
“Okay.”
Leaving money on the table for the coffee, he followed the
women out the door. By the time he
climbed out of his Ferrari in front of his father’s house and pushed through
the front door, his temper had reached the boiling point.
“Dad! It’s Beau! Where are you?” He strode down the hall toward the study. “Dad!”
Still no answer. Steeling himself
for the confrontation ahead, he shoved open the door.
His father wasn’t sitting behind his big rosewood desk or in
his favorite chair. Beau started to turn
away when an odd gurgling sound sent the hairs up on the back of his neck.
“Dad!” Beau spotted
his father lying on the floor in a spreading pool of blood. The handle of a letter opener protruded from
the middle of his chest.
“Dad!” Blood oozed
from the wound and streamed onto the hardwood floor. Beau had to stop the bleeding and he had to
do it now.
Praying he wouldn’t make it worse and with no other options,
he grabbed the handle of the letter opener and jerked it out.
“Oh, my God! What are
you--”
His father’s personal assistant, Cassidy Jones, stood in the
doorway. “Call 9-1-1!” Beau shouted as
he worked to stop the flow of blood. “Hurry,
he’s been stabbed!”
The shapely brunette didn’t pause, just pulled out her cell
and dialed the emergency number. Beau’s
hand shook as he checked for a pulse, found none. The stab wound was catastrophic. No way could his father survive it.
And when he looked at Cassidy Jones, he realized she thought
he was the man who had done him.

She's very good at it, isn't she?
DeleteI have read different series by this author. The novels are exciting and intriguing.
ReplyDeleteDid you know she also wrote historicals back in the day?
DeleteKat Martin's books provide me with an escape.
ReplyDeleteThat they do!
DeleteI haven't started this series, but I did enjoy Kat's Brodies of Alaska books.
ReplyDeleteI liked the Alaska books too, cheryl!
DeleteI know that this is a longtime author, but I have not read any of her books. I went on a historical jag, then paranormal jag before cutting my reading with some contemporary and just a bit of suspense. I have a long way to go before reading all of the authors I want/intend to read.
ReplyDeleteBelieve me, Lil, you're not alone. There are so many authors out there about whom I've heard wonderful things but there are only so many hours in the day.
DeleteI have read Into the Fury. She writes some books that will keep you on the edge. I haven't started her new series.
ReplyDeleteI have not read one of her books recently, but I do know she is a talented author who develops a terrific story.
ReplyDeleteI have read her books before and liked them. Hadn't heard about this series though. I will definitely check it out.
ReplyDeleteI am reading the Texas Trilogy and can't wait to get my hands on this one! I have almost all her books and I love, love them.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to reading Kat's books. Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed Kat's Against .... series, but haven't started this Texas trilogy yet.
ReplyDeleteKat Martin has been a favorite for years. I started with her historicals and loved them. I followed her to her paranormals and her suspense books. No matter what the sub-genre they are all well worth reading. I currently have a backlog of her books on my TBR mountain, so no, I haven't started the Texas trilogy yet. From the sound of BEYOND DANGER, it is going to be sooner.

ReplyDeleteHaven't read this trilogy but have read other books by kat.
ReplyDeleteI've read several of her historicals but none of her contemporaries have made it off my tbr yet.
