Agent Zero

An agent risks everything for a love he shouldn’t feel in New York Times bestselling author Lilith Saintcrow’s thrilling new romance!

After barely surviving an IED, former US Army soldier Reese was whisked away by a shadowy agency and genetically enhanced. Now a “Super Agent”—smarter, faster, stronger, deadly—Reese executes his missions with precision. But when he’s inexplicably drawn to a down-on-her-luck waitress, Reese learns he’s not the emotionless man he once thought.

One minute, Holly Candless is getting fifty-buck tips from her favorite hunky customer. The next, she’s kidnapped, injected with something and rescued by Reese. Suddenly, they’re on the run from the very government agency that wants Reese reprogrammed—and Holly dead. Keeping Holly alive is not only Reese’s primary mission—it’s his sole chance at love...and survival.

“Come on, open your eyes again, honey.”

Holly did her best to obey.

There, silhouetted with sunlight, was a familiar face. Dark eyes, a baseball cap shielding them. Nose slightly too long, cheekbones slightly too high, the charcoal shading on his cheeks from stubble answering one question—he did get a shadow well before five o’clock.

Reese examined her critically, staring into her eyes for what seemed like forever. He nodded, slightly, as if he’d found what he expected. “How did they get you? Where were you when you were taken?”

Taken? Her arms were heavy, but she managed to rub at her eyes. He pulled her up, wiry strength evident in his grip on her arm. Despite that, he was gentle, and she was glad, because she ached all over. “I... There was a van. I was...I was going for coffee. With you.” The fog in her head was breaking up, but not nearly quickly enough. “Why are you in my house?”

“I’m rescuing you.”

Dear Reader,

This book started as a gift to my writing partner, who really needed a story to get her through some stressful days. Now it’s a gift to you. I had so much fun writing about a waitress and a superspy, and in the end, Holly’s strength and Reese’s tenderness worked their way into my heart. I hope you enjoy their story as much as I enjoyed writing it.

Sincerely,

Lili
