High-Risk Investigation by Jane M. Choate

Fatal truth!

Finishing the investigation that got her parents killed is reporter Scout McAdams's top priority – even with someone threatening her life if she doesn't drop it. But she'll reluctantly accept former army ranger Nicco Santonni as her bodyguard…on one condition. He can't try to stop her from uncovering the truth her true–crime writer mother was searching for, despite the danger. Though the pretty – and stubborn – journalist may not want a bodyguard, Nicco knows she needs one, and he aims to shadow Scout's every move. But while Nicco may use every tactic to keep the killers at bay, when the truth proves deadlier than they ever imagined, will they live to tell the tale?
