Pressure Point

When a woman emerges from Lantern Beach's maritime forest with wounds, no memory, and no identification, she desperately wants to know who she is. But she remembers nothing—not her name, her past, or why someone would try to kill her. Blackout operative Atlas Manning's protective instincts kick into overdrive the moment he encounters the injured woman. He takes her to the local clinic, but when a professional assassin targets her there, the woman's amnesia becomes the least of his worries. As Quinn's fragmented memories begin to surface, they paint a disturbing picture. Flashes of violence and references to mysterious targets suggest she may not be the innocent victim she appears to be. When she exhibits combat skills that rival Atlas's own, he realizes this woman is far more dangerous—and valuable—than anyone imagined. As pressure builds from all sides and a deadly hurricane approaches the island, Quinn must decide whether to run from her past or face the truth—even if it destroys the very man who saved her. Book two in the pulse-pounding Lantern Beach Blackout: Detonation series from USA Today bestselling author Christy Barritt.
