Mission of Desire
By Terri Richards
Quiet and introverted graduate student Nicole Kennedy has always longed to do something far more adventurous than study politics from used textbooks.
But when she spontaneously sets off for Africa to volunteer as a teacher over the summer, she gets more excitement than she could have ever imagined. Within hours of arriving in Kenya, Nicole finds herself at the center of an international conspiracy involving millions of dollars and being rescued by beautiful but infuriatingly arrogant government agent Kira Anthony. Despite her suspicions that Kira may not be who she claims to be, Nicole can’t seem to fight her growing attraction to the beguiling blonde. Could it be the thrill, the danger, the close proximity that explains her feelings or is it a glimpse of something she’s never known and can’t bear to lose?
