New recruits mean Jared Westin has potential new hires to scrutinize. What he didn\u2019t expect was his very pregnant wife Sugar to finagle her way onto the surveillance team as the prospects were assessed.<\/p>\n<p>Her involvement in the simple observation goes dangerously wrong. She and best friend Lexi Black stumble into a problem with Russian mobsters. Sugar is forced to draw on her old ATF tricks, but weeks from her due date, she has no choice but to team up with Bishop O\u2019Kane, a potential-new recruit and Parker Black, Lexi\u2019s hacker husband, who must go undercover.<\/p>\n<p>This is special ops novella is packed with high-stakes crime and intrigue, a baby story for Boss Man, and two steamy romances for two of Titan\u2019s favorite couples!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/book\/live-wire\/id1120732484\" target=\"_blank\">Get your hands on LIVE WIRE now, an iBooks exclusive!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>GET A QUICK PEEK:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-indent: .5in; line-height: 19.2pt; background: white;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222;\">The rhythmic pounding of the man running for his life in between Sugar\u2019s and Lexi\u2019s treadmills was more than enough up-close proof that Bishop O\u2019Kane was as physically fit as his profile said. This gym catered to professional bodybuilders but was empty with the exception of one other person and staff. It was elite and niche, and Sugar had basically used her pregnant stomach and her hormones to get them a day pass.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: .5in; line-height: 19.2pt; background: white;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222;\">Not exactly Titan-level detective work, but this was more a girl\u2019s trip than anything else\u2026 right?

Well, that was probably true. For as hot as Lexi was, she was clueless when it came to the art of flirting. Though they weren\u2019t flirting.

She could feel the blood thumping in her neck and in her <i>stomach<\/i>, which was a change from the norm. But all in all, this was no different than creeping like a shadow on any other job. Except she didn\u2019t know who or what she was dealing with, and she had to hide what felt like an additional few feet of her stomach from view while trying to figure out what the double deuces was happening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: .5in; line-height: 19.2pt; background: white; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: 1; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222;\">She tried her cell phone again. <i>Shoot.<\/i> She got nothing but a spinning circle and a <i>no service<\/i> signal. Clearly, somewhere in the building was a cell-phone jammer, which meant this was more of a professional job than a slam-and-bam robbery.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: .5in; line-height: 19.2pt; background: white; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: 1; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222;\">Okay\u2026 what to do?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: .5in; line-height: 19.2pt; background: white; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: 1; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222;\">Slinking down the hallway, she heard no exercise equipment clinking and clanking. No men throwing heavy things. No people grunting as they lifted heavy objects for personal enjoyment. There was only the empty blare of music that, now that all was abandoned and quiet, played far too loud. Her phone continued to cycle without a signal, and Sugar\u2019s eyes searched for signs of anyone in the building\u2014most importantly, Lexi. And where had that searching Russian man gone? She needed a weapon.

Across the open floor were hand weights. She could grab a few jump ropes or one of the calisthenics bars while she was there. But crossing the gym was too dangerous. With a view of nothing but treadmills, elliptical machines, and stair climbers, she had nothing but magazines to smack a bad dude with. Nothing deadly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: .5in; line-height: 19.2pt; background: white; orphans: auto; text-align: start; widows: 1; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-spacing: 0px;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #222222;\">So the plan for the moment was to keep against the wall and head for the main desk. Surely there was a pair of scissors. A stapler. Hell, she could be deadly with a phone cord. All she needed was the right angle.
