In 1929, twenty daredevil women take to the skies in the most dangerous race of their lives. Florence \"Pancho\" Barnes--heiress, rebel, and the most colorful pilot in America--can outfly, outswear, and outdrive any man. When Hollywood tries to turn the first-ever cross-country National Women''s Air Derby into a publicity stunt with movie starlets and their male \"mechanics\" doing the real flying, Pancho rallies the greatest female aviators of the era to fight back. Alongside aviation legends Amelia Earhart, Louise Thaden, and Marvel Crosson, these fearless women demand the right to fly solo across 2,800 miles of treacherous terrain in primitive, fragile aircraft held together by glue and prayers. But as the race begins, sabotage strikes. Someone wants these women to fail--or worse. As increasingly serious incidents mount, the pilots realize they''re not just racing for glory. They''re fighting for their lives and the future of women in aviation. United in their determination to finish the derby, they refuse to back down, watching each other''s backs as they barrel across the country in a white-knuckle race that will determine once and for all whether women belong in the skies. From high-speed car chases to emergency landings, speakeasy showdowns to courtroom battles, Where the Sky Begins is a thrilling ride through one of aviation''s most dramatic chapters--a story of courage, sisterhood, and the unbreakable spirit of women who refused to be grounded.

ufeffThey call him a trouble magnet. If something bad is going to happen, former Navy SEAL Ian McCloud is probably there already. At the moment, he’s investigating a rogue scientist with a penchant for nasty viruses…what could go wrong? They call her a maverick. CIA operative, Piper Roth, is the last kind of trouble Ian wants or needs. She’s currently tracking a homegrown separatist group bent on giving Uncle Sam a bloody nose, and she’s out to prove she can run with the big boys. This mission will make her career…as long as Ian McCloud stays out of her way. But when their investigations collide, sparks fly and desire explodes between them. As they maneuver to one-up each other, their smoking-hot one-night-stand spells Trouble with a capital T for both of them. Now Ian and Piper must put aside their fiery attraction and join forces to stop a diabolical terrorist attack that aims to unleash a series of hellish attacks on an unsuspecting American city. Their lives, and those of thousands of civilians, are at stake as they race to stop disaster, balanced on a razor’s edge between love and danger.

Fresh out of law school, Dani Wellford is determined to make her mark with her first solo case. Too bad her mysteriously uncooperative client seems determined to land behind bars. And too bad the smoking hot assistant DA prosecuting the case makes her pulse race every time they clash. Cameron Townsend has an impressive conviction record, but his latest case is proving... challenging. Not because the evidence is weak—it''s ironclad. Not because the rookie defense attorney is incompetent—she''s smart, funny, and way too sexy. The problem? He can''t stop thinking about her, and she''s getting dangerously close to costing him the conviction that will make his whole career. Enemies in court, lovers after hours--they''re trapped in an impossible choice: honor their oaths as attorneys and lose the person who sets their souls on fire or follow their hearts and betray everything they''ve ever fought to become. Either way, when the verdict comes in, they''''ll both lose something they can''t bear to live without. Justice has never been so complicated—or so seductive.

A government assassin. A sociopathic killer. Both hunters—and both hunted—in the ultimate game of deception, double-cross, and death. Retired CIA agent Helen Warwick returns in this electrifying thriller from New York Times bestselling author and former spy Cindy Dees. As an elite assassin for the CIA, Helen Warwick was trained to keep a low profile, blend into the crowd, and eliminate her targets swiftly, silently, and efficiently. But now that she’s retired, Helen is forced to take on a very different, and very public, role—as the proud mother of a rising young politician. At a DC press conference for her son’s campaign, she sees the ominous green light of a gun laser fixed on her son’s head—and her CIA training kicks in. She jumps into action, pushes her son down, and saves him from a sniper’s bullet. In that moment, Helen realizes she will never escape the secrets of her past—or the deranged man she thought she killed . . . Code named Scorpius, he’s a Russian mole embedded in the CIA who recruits dangerous sociopaths and trains them to kill at command. None of his CIA colleagues know his true identity. But when members of his kill team begin to disappear, he realizes his entire operation may be at risk. His greatest threat, Helen Warwick, has agreed to rejoin the CIA to help expose Scorpius. She suspects that Scorpius may be one of her colleagues, part of a vast conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of government. And now that her family has been personally targeted, she’s willing to break every rule to stop Scorpius and his trained killers. Unless, of course, they kill her first . . .

Retirement isn’t easy for a former CIA assassin. For fifty-five-year-old Helen Warwick, it may be impossible. Even Helen’s family doesn’t know the true nature of the work she’s done for decades—the secret black ops, the sanctioned executions. But her plan to spend time reconnecting with her grown children has just been blown up—along with her son’s house—by hired killers. Why is she being targeted now—and by whom? Years of eliminating the nation’s enemies one sniper bullet at a time have earned Helen powerful adversaries. Then there are mysterious new foes, including a psychopath dubbed The DaVinci Killer, who wages a twisted war with a rival serial killer to turn murder into art. And when he sets his sights on Helen, she may very well become his next exhibit. From homegrown spies to Russian mafia hitmen, Helen’s ghosts don’t just haunt—they kill. And staying alive long enough to make up for the past, and protect those closest to her, will take every ounce of skill she possesses . . .
