About Love and Lies: Crooked Creek Romance (Unabridged)

If this was a poker game, Zach Masters would fold and cut his losses. The problem: The stakes included Faith Gardner’s life. The notorious drug boss Chen Yong held the better hand. And this was no game. As a rookie DEA agent Zach takes a covert assignment in Billings, Montana. A chance encounter with a girl from his past threatens to blow his cover and puts her life in danger. Twelve years earlier, on the day before he deployed to Afghanistan, Zach Masters met Faith Gardner. They spent an unforgettable day together, and the memory of her helped him survive the dark nights of war and the battering of PTSD. After years of medical school, Faith’s boyfriend Brett returns to Montana as the new emergency room doctor. But why, when Brett is perfect boyfriend material, does her heart seem stuck on Zach? Especially after finding him with some shady characters in an alley on the wrong side of town. Faith lost a high school friend to drugs and regret still plagues her. Even though Zach’s life looks like a train wreck, Faith vows not to stand by and do nothing. Zach’s whispered promises on that long-ago Fourth of July still haunt her. If she had meant anything to him, why had he ghosted her?
