BLURB:
Caila,
like most dreamers, just wants to be wanted. Unlike most dreamers,
she's wanted by the CIA.
When
the last decade of thirty-two year old Caila Domenici’s life
disappears, destroyed in a car accident, she is forced to begin
again. Defying doctor’s orders to slow-go-it, she sets out to
navigate the world on her own. It's not going well. Coddled from
birth, everything from a bus schedule to how to boil water confounds
her. Worse yet, she's about to accept her meddling mother's offer to
pay for food and rent. With just a hunch her talents extend beyond
that of daughter of privilege, Caila searches for her past. Before
she can find it, it finds her. And the handsome azure-eyed stranger
who’s saying he knows her is somehow part of it.
Caila
always believed there had to be more, but now, on the verge of
discovering the truth, she must decide which is worse – never
knowing who she really is, or knowing too much.

Excerpt:
Reese
was being too nice. Something was up - their deep conversation the
night before, the bubble bath, the tea, turning down her bed and now
breakfast? Caila wasn’t suspicious by nature, and in most cases
trusted more than she should, but where Reese was concerned she
dropped all pretenses and questioned his every move. He was much too
calculating to not see opportunity in everything he did. Caila
recognized that in him right away. Her mind was now churning with
theories. Why, if he was up to something, would he be so blatant with
this sudden kindness? Did he think she would not notice?
Then she
imagined the most unexpected thing.
Maybe he
wasn’t up to anything at all. Maybe this was another side to the
man she detested right from the start. The invader, the man who came
to make her life a living hell and push aside her father may not,
after all, be the man she believed him to be. But even that theory
was short lived. No, she
thought, he has a motive.
