Betrayal at Crater’s Edge by Kathleen
Rowland is part of the box set Fling
coming out June 30
Blurb:
Marchand
LaFond is in control: his spy mission,
his rules. After a suspicious betrayal
by a friend, he knows this time, he needs help to dispose of deadly nerve
agent. The person he trusts most is his former girlfriend, Yardley Van
Dyke. She trusts him with her life but
not her heart. Nothing is as simple or
complicated as his perfect kiss.
Under the
uncharted sulfurous clouds on Venus, they get closer to answers—and play to win
as they get closer to each other. Will
they find the poison before Vito Savage annihilates those who get in his way?
Excerpt:
His interest in her swung like a pendulum. Up. Now down. He'd moved from their
dormitory-habitat, but didn't say he'd lost love. He just didn't say.
Her friend, Sharlene, told her how the wind was blowing. As if Yardley didn't know they'd blown
apart! As if she didn't know he'd moved
into the beached shuttle.
Be strong!
No more checking, ogling. Be the
girl who fiddles with plants. Enjoy your knack. Look anywhere but out the window.
At her potting table she pushed seeds into a growth medium. Be grateful, proud. Not everyone has
green thumb. Her skill came easily, and
she shared her bumper crops. Why wasn't this working?
The screen door squeaked. Do
I look? She took a deep breath and expelled it slowly, wishing her heart
wasn't thumping like she'd run to the canal and back.
The
door slammed. "Yardley."
