      “Lexi...we need to go. Quickly.”

      “I don’t understand.” She didn’t want to go anywhere. Not when she finally felt safe.

      “The men who were looking for us have just arrived.”

      Lexi’s heart pounded inside her chest. The men who’d grabbed her were here? A wave of panic streaked through her.

      “We’ll be okay, but I need you to come with me now.”

      Issa was waiting for them. “We must hurry,” he said, making his way in front of them.

      Lexi glanced back as Colton grasped her hand and led her down a sharply twisted flight of stairs.

      Issa pushed open a heavy wooden door that opened up into some sort of garage.

      “Here’s the Jeep.”

      “So we drive out of here?” Lexi asked.

      “It’s our only option.”

      The fear was back, spiraling in her gut. She glanced at Colton and caught the same look of worry in his eyes as he reached out and grasped her hand.

      “We’re going to get out of this.”

      She nodded, but wasn’t convinced anymore that there was a way out.

Dear Reader,

      I’ve had people ask me if I’ve experienced some of the things I put my characters through, and thankfully I could always say no. While a lot of people love an adrenaline rush, I don’t, and I certainly have no desire to experience any of the scenarios from my suspense novels. But while I was in the process of finishing this story, three armed men walked into our house, tied up my family and robbed us.

      The experience changed how I felt about a lot of things, including writing suspense. Before I could continue, I had to rethink why I write what I write. I was eventually able to move forward and pour my emotions from the attack into this story, which ended up bringing me healing. And I hope that once you’ve read this story, you’ll remember the fact that the God who created the universe wants to be your refuge and fortress—no matter what you are going through.

      Be blessed,

      Lisa Harris
