Running Out of Time

In the shadowy world of espionage, Jon Carter is a legend, a lone wolf agent known for his deadly efficiency and uncanny ability to disappear without a trace. But when his new boss assigns him a partner - Elana Miller, a former ballerina with zero field experience - Jon's carefully cultivated solitude is shattered. Thrust into the heart of a high-stakes mission in Russia, Elana quickly realizes that her only hope for survival is a brooding enigma, a man of few words and lethal skills. As they navigate the treacherous labyrinth of Black Ops, Elana finds herself drawn to Jon's enigmatic charm and unwavering determination. But the delicate balance of their partnership shatters when their mission takes a deadly turn, leaving them hunted by ruthless adversaries. Trust is a luxury they can no longer afford, and the line between friend and foe blurs into a deadly dance of betrayal and deception. In the adrenaline-fueled heart of Moscow, they must find a way to survive or become pawns in a deadly game where the stakes are higher than they could ever have imagined. Running Out of Time is book 2 in the Running series, but can be read as a standalone too.
