Katie shook her head. “Can’t wait to hear this story. In the meantime, I’ll make the engine ready and arrange for fuel to be delivered.” She raised her eyebrows at Remy. “This is going to be an interesting trip.”

“What do you want me to do?” His deep voice sizzled over her already tight nerves.

Acknowledgments
A huge thank you to all of my amazing readers who have fallen in love with this series and patiently awaited Liam’s story. You guys are the best.
My editor, Brenda Chin—I cannot imagine anyone I would have rather had with me on this journey. I have been beyond blessed by your spot-on guidance and suggestions for all three books of the Phoenix Rising series, your patience, and your unwavering faith in me.
Pat Van Wie—Thank you for the lunches and friendship; the countless hours of talking through plot points, reading, and helping me get this one right; and for encouraging me when I thought I might never finish this one!
Mathew—For being my biggest fan; for helping me with everything from brainstorming book titles to finding answers for all my random questions about smuggling, guns, private jets, and illegal passports without batting an eye; and for making sure I saw plenty of movies about drug cartels “for the book.” But mostly, thank you for being you.
