Perfect Double

Former special agent Cleo North thought she had sworn off bureaucracy forever-but the Air Force Office of Special Investigations has other ideas. They need her expertise and are willing to pay her extravagant fee. The case? An off-duty U.S. tanker pilot recently took a bullet under suspicious circumstances and wound up dead.

It doesn't take long before Cleo and Major Jack Donovan from the OSI-along with some help from British Intelligence-discover the pilot was involved in some questionable activities. But why was he so interested in a U.S. Army Air Corps transport that went down in the English Channel in 1943?

When another murder links a far-fetched story of wartime international intrigue to millions of dollars in gold, only one question remains: who is behind the ultimate cover-up? And could Cleo be the next bullet's victim?

Ten years ago, former special agent Cleo North ignored her gut instinct-and a young sergeant wound up brutally murdered. Finally she is in a position to find out what went wrong.

Cleo is certain the official story-a murder-suicide-is wrong. Now she has a new assignment working with Major Jack Donovan and the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, offering security to a pampered celebrity as a front for a terrorism factfinding mission. At last she has access to the one man she's sure is involved in the decade-old murder.

But as Cleo is plunged into a tangle of violence and lies, she must quickly decide who the real victims are. And who's covering up a first deadly mistake.

When tricky situations need a cool head, quick wits and a touch of ruthlessness, the top-secret OMEGA agency springs into action. But this time the risk is also the hearts of the team-including Director Adam Ridgeway's own….

UNDERCOVER MAN: Convinced her fiancé is keeping secrets, shy librarian Paige Lawrence travels to a French château to break the engagement. But David "Doc" Jensen's hidden identity as an OMEGA agent soon has them both undercover-and now Paige has to trust in the only real thing she knows…David!

PERFECT DOUBLE: Sophisticated and wealthy Adam Ridgeway's cool exterior masked his feelings about sending his people into danger. But when vibrant, irrepressible-and irreplaceable-Maggie Sinclair was the one in trouble, he risked more than anyone knew. Now Maggie was going undercover to impersonate the vice president-and Adam would be her bodyguard….

They called him Project Iceman. The U-2 pilot who, incredibly, hadn't aged since the day his top-secret mission went south into the Arctic Ocean...forty-five years ago. Biologist Diana Remington had the duty of monitoring the scientific marvel, but her OMEGA objective was to learn from the fiercely guarded flyboy what had happened during that fateful flight.

From his buzz cut to his June Cleaver ideal of women, Major Charles Stone should have riled Diana's defenses. Instead, she ached for all that he'd lost...and welcomed his heated touch despite the rules--and the risk. Because someone seemed determined to let sleeping spies lie--forever....

When a young woman vanishes without a trace, former special agent Cleo North is hired to find her. But cold trail after cold trail lead to nowhere, until Major Jack Donovan-special agent with the Air Force's Office of Special Investigations and the on-again, off-again man in Cleo's life-joins the case.

Soon they are trying to determine why a lowly employee had access to engineering schematics of a ship carrying dangerous cargo. When the evidence leads them to Malta, they uncover a massive threat with international consequences. Absolutely nothing is as it seems-and time is running out for them to find the key to a terrorist's deeply hidden sins.

Once he'd been known as Henri Everard, the fastest pickpocket in Nice. But the ensuing years had turned him into all-American Nick Jensen--aka Lightning--acting director of the Omega Agency. His most pressing assignment at the moment: heading to France to find out who was trying to kill him. And in that noble task he was assisted by Mackenzie Blair, Omega's communications director. This woman had gotten under his skin lately--and was turning even this assignment into a pleasure trip.

But first things first. No use planning for the future until he was sure he had one....

When hurricane hunter Kate Hargrove met hotshot test pilot Dave Scott, everything started heating up. It was a warming trend Kate was determined to ignore at all costs, because Dave's love-'em-and-leave-'em reputation was all too familiar. Dave had had an eye for the ladies, but that was in the past. Once he saw the gorgeous researcher assigned as partner, he knew that he was a one-woman man. If he could only convince Kate that appearances could be deceiving...

Wrong Bride, Right Groom

Colonel Jake McAllister doesn't doubt that Maura Phillips has the qualifications and the know-how to handle a spot on his all-male, high-tech team at Elgin Air Force Base. As the test pilot in charge of top secret stealth weapons development, he's more worried about what's going to happen when her "free spirit" is introduced into the project's touchy pressure-cooker environment.

He'd been expecting to meet a buttoned-down engineer in a severe blue suit, which is why he's not exactly sure what to make of the leggy California girl with the funky clothes and clunky jewelry who comes flying through his door. He soon concludes the lady is deadly serious about her job--and a deadly threat to his self-control.

From Publishers Weekly
Lovelace's military romances have garnered a justifiably large following. It may be that there's still something special about a guy (and gal) in uniform, but this is good writing, too. Computer specialist Captain Jennifer Varga is targeted by a secret paramilitary group when she innocently backs up the files of a co-worker who'd dropped dead of a heart attack. The man was on the group's payroll, and the files contain incriminating evidence of clandestine activity, some of which has been taking place on military bases. Adding to Jennifer's troubles is her boss, handsome, strictly-by-the-rulebook career airman Lieutenant Colonel Mike Page, who's trying to keep Jennifer in the service while fighting his powerful sexual attraction to her, his subordinate. Fascinating, behind-the-scenes details of military life and the serious consequences of falling into forbidden relationships makes this fast-paced thriller both a gripping as well as a timely read. If you're a sucker for An Officer and a Gentleman or JAG, you'll eat this up.
