      HIGH FLYING, HIGH DANGER

      After years of peace and quiet, Maya Carpenter thinks she’s safe—that her drug-lord father’s world will never catch up with her. Then she’s abducted and secretly stashed on a plane. And once she and the test pilot who finds her land in the Keys, the real threat begins....

      Daredevil pilot Connor Jacobson is no one’s hero. And this time, he’s in way over his head. Yet he can’t leave Maya to face danger alone. Besides, he has a few tricks up his sleeve that might keep them safe...as long as he’s willing to put everything at risk, including his heart.

      “I’m not the bad guy. I don’t know why you’re on this plane.”

      Her dark eyes studied his, looking for the truth in his words.

      “The name’s Connor Jacobson, by the way.”

      “Maya,” she said. She tugged a strand of her beautiful dark hair away from her face, revealing the shadows under her eyes.

      “Maya?” he asked, hoping for a little more.

      That’s all she would give. It was enough for now.

      Connor leaned forward, his elbows on his knees. “I have a feeling, Maya, that you might know more about what’s going on than me. So why don’t you spill.”

      He wished he knew how to completely convince her he wasn’t involved in her kidnapping, but that was only one of the many problems her presence on the plane presented.

      The woman had been traumatized, and Connor would give her the space she needed for as long as he could, before he pressed her for information.

      He glanced at his watch. She had half an hour.

      ELIZABETH GODDARD

      is a seventh-generation Texan who grew up in a small oil town in East Texas, surrounded by Christian family and friends. Becoming a writer of Christian fiction was a natural outcome of her love of reading, fueled by a strong faith.

      Elizabeth attended the University of North Texas where she received her degree in computer science. She spent the next seven years working in high-level sales for a software company located in Dallas, traveling throughout the United States and Canada as part of the job. At twenty-five, she finally met the man of her dreams and married him a few short weeks later. When she had her first child, she moved back to East Texas with her husband and daughter and worked for a pharmaceutical company. But then, more children came along and it was time to focus on family. Elizabeth loves that she gets to do her favorite things every day—read, write novels, stay at home with her four precious children, and work with her adoring husband in ministry.
