Someone Worth Killing For

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

Harley Maddox can lie in four languages, fight dirty in six-inch heels and make a dangerous man believe he’s the only one she wants. MI6 has made very good use of all three. Her private life is harder to manage. Adrian Mercer, her married handler, is twenty years older and knows exactly how to get beneath her skin. Nate Maddison is her brother’s best friend, an SBS soldier and the man she has loved for longer than she’s prepared to admit. For years, she and Nate have hidden behind friendship, bad jokes and a photograph neither will explain. When they finally stop pretending, Harley gets one night in his arms. By morning, she’s gone. Her next assignment takes her into the inner circle of Caio Valença, a ruthless terrorist whose fascination with her offers MI6 the access it needs. Harley knows how to keep him interested. She also knows that every night she spends earning his trust takes her further from the life she wants with Nate. Then an operation puts Nate directly in her sights, and the choices she makes undercover begin following her home. With her family becoming targets and the men she loves pulling her in different directions, Harley must find a way to finish the mission before it destroys the people she would kill to protect. Someone Worth Killing For is the first book in The Maddox Files, an adult dark romantic thriller featuring a lethal heroine, British military banter, complicated loyalties and explicit intimacy. This book ends on a cliffhanger.

Dedication

To my readers,

Thank you for supporting me through one of the most difficult periods of my life. Your messages, encouragement and honest feedback have meant more to me than I can ever properly put into words. Some of you may never realise how much your kindness has helped me keep going, both with my writing and through the days beyond it.

Whether you have been here from the beginning or have only just found my stories, thank you for reading, for reaching out and for caring. I am eternally grateful to every one of you, and I hope you know how much your support means to me.

With all my love,

Hannah

Amy, you are more courageous than all of your characters in all your books!

I hope you had people around you to support you through that struggle and allow others to give back to you!

I am super glad and grateful you were able to return to us! To continue to share your amazing writing skills, books and witt. To torment us with gripping, torturous (metaphorically) and terrifying (literally) chapters, entertain and give us such a remarkable insight into the human spirit and the ability to overcome, reflect, grow and celebrate!

To fall in love with your characters and go on journeys we never thought we'd go on.

To keep us on our toes and in suspense. To never get too comfortable with a plot or character. To turn chapter reads into binge reading sessions, where sleep is lost and eyebags gained, just to know what happens next.

Thank you, most sincerely!!!

🙏 🌹

Ashley: I enjoyed the story. It was a short one so the fast pace fit. I think something should be put in to show a time jump between paragraphs like a "****" just to make it easier to follow when we skip to the next day week or month. Over all a good read.
