This week I'm featuring Girl Lost (The King Legacy Book #1) by Kate Angelo. I just started reading it and am really enjoying it so far.
Luna Rosati found acceptance and comfort with her childhood foster family, but when she became pregnant at sixteen, she gave the baby up for adoption and left without a word. Now a CIA counterintelligence officer, Luna wants to reconcile her fractured sense of self by finding the only blood family she has--the teenage daughter she's never met. As Luna closes in on learning the girl's identity with the help of her mentor, Stryker, she prepares to meet him in her old neighborhood--the last place she wants to be. Then Stryker is captured.
AN INESCAPABLE PAST
Special Agent Corbin King changed his last name to escape the shadow of his convicted father serving a life sentence. When he runs into Luna, the object of his failed teenage romance, the two must put their pasts aside and work together to expose a secret that someone's willing to kill for.
A DEADLY THREAT
But when they encounter a kidnapping, missing bodies, and murder, the secrets Corbin and Luna are keeping from one another are only the beginning of the threat they face with more than their own lives at stake.
Book Beginnings / First Line Friday
Luna Rosati could disappear into any crowd, any city, any life. Except this one. This life. It had a way of pulling her back. Like a riptide dragging her under.
Friday 56
Corbin pushed open the door. The smell of antiseptic cut right through his exhaustion and jolted him awake. The harsh fluorescent lights of the medical examiner's office cast an eerie glow over the sterile room where steel examination tables and rows of medical instruments lined the walls.
