Resolutions
by Teri Riggs
DEA
agent Eve Taylor has had her fill of alpha males. When Resolutions’ operative
and former lover, Dillon “Mac” McKenna, threatened her hard-earned
independence, she ran. On a mission to gather evidence against a Colombian
drug-lord, Eve discovers the drug-lord is helping terrorists plan an attack on
American soil. Before she can escape with the vital information, she’s captured
and comes face to face with her mortality…
As a teen, Mac watched his family fall apart after his mother died doing
dangerous U.N. work. The possibility of losing Eve to a mission ignited an
overwhelming need to protect her. When he forced her to choose him or her job,
she walked away. Two years later, it seems all his nightmares have come true
and he’s tasked with rescuing her from a Colombian prison. Mac has never
stopped loving Eve, but does he dare risk his heart when he’s so terrified of
losing…
On the run, Mac and Eve must learn to trust each other again in order to stay
alive.
Note: Resolutions is a private black ops agency specializing in the
near-impossible extractions of kidnap victims, hostages, and all forms of
intelligence other agencies have failed to retrieve.

About
the Author:
Teri
Riggs was destined to be a writer. As a small girl she didn’t read bedtime
stories, she made up her own. Who needed Little Red Riding Hood or The Three
Little Pigs when there were so many great tales bouncing around in her head?
When she grew up and became a mother to three little girls, she continued the
tradition of making up bedtime stories. On the occasions she chose to tell
conventional fairytales, Teri usually gave them a bit of tweaking here and
there or added a new ending. Her girls loved it.After her daughters had the nerve to actually grow up and leave home, Teri discovered she had a passion for writing and jumped right in. It came as no surprise she chose to write mysteries and happily-ever-after’s since that’s the genres she loves to read.
Teri lives in Marietta, Georgia with her husband, one of her daughters and two dogs that seem to think they rule the world. And some days Teri thinks maybe they do.

Enjoy the following excerpt for RESOLUTIONS:
Beefy hands wrenched Eve awake from a fevered
sleep, pulled her from the cell, and shoved her into a musty-smelling hallway.
I’m being moved? A guard pushed her with one hand, keeping a tight grip on an
AK-47 rifle with his other.
Her shoulder throbbed in perfect cadence with
the pains shooting through her broken wrist, and she had one badass headache
from being punched in the face a few too many times. Using her good hand, she
walked fingers across one cheek, then the other. The right side was totally
numb. Her eye had swollen shut, and she couldn’t see a damn thing out of it.
She ran her tongue across her teeth and tasted the tart, copper flavor of
blood. Three teeth loose. Well, at least they’re still in place.
In spite of the relentless pain, she stayed
determined to survive whatever Mendoza dished out. She wasn’t a quitter. No, sir.
Duncan Falls, Iowa didn’t grow quitters. Eve ignored the constant ache in her
ribs, courtesy of a guard’s overzealous kick, and took in a deep breath. She
willed herself to stay alert, to keep pushing. Escape. Third times the charm.
Eve slapped the guard’s dirty hand. “Hey,
Pedro, stop being so damned pushy. Where we going anyway? We got a hot date
I’ve forgotten about?”
He looked puzzled then shoved her again.
“Don’t understand English, do you, Diego? Bet
you understand this.” Eve drove her elbow into the guard’s face. Thick rubbery
cartilage gave, and she whooped triumphantly.
Blood squirted from his nose and he screamed.
Eve stepped back. “Yep, I’m pretty sure you
understand that.”
Unable to grab the guard’s assault rifle, she
clutched her injured shoulder, and took off in a slow jog, no longer able to
push any harder.
Her escape was short lived.Resolutions was a finalist in the prestigious Daphne Du Maurier contest
