Mercenary Trace Rivers is making it his mission in life to take down as many human traffickers he can find. His sister's kidnapping is fueling his need to stop any one from suffering the same fate as his sister though she is safely returned home after being kidnapped and almost sold into white slavery. Trace is undercover working for Murray Coburn, a business man Trace suspects is at the heart of a trafficking ring but he needs more evidence. The moment a sexy, cute, and distracting woman breezes into Murray's office claiming to be a long lost daughter, Trace's protective nature immediately kicks in. He is not sure what a wholesome young woman like this one is doing purposefully claiming to be the offspring of a slime ball like Murray Coburn but he is determined to protect her anyway.

The moment Priscilla Patterson's mother passes away, she decides to take revenge on the man that put both Priscilla and her mother on the run for most of their lives. Her plan is easy, claim to be a long lost daughter of Murray Coburn and get close enough to kill him. Priscilla can't remember a time where she and her mom were not on the run to make sure they stayed hidden from Murray. Priscilla's plan is flawless until Trace Miller, Murray Coburn's bodyguard and head of security, gives her a sensual frisking and forces his protective nature on her. Using her ability to act like a brainless bombshell is the easy part, making sure no one interferes with her plan is becoming more difficult by the second. Trace is taking his job as protector seriously and interfering with her plans but the chemistry between them is more distracting than the dangerous path she has chosen.

This IS the second book in Lori Foster's Men Who Walk the Edge of Honor series. TRACE OF FEVER is action-packed with danger, lust, and betrayal that shakes up every page. Phenomenal read!
