Midnight Shadows, A Wildefire Novel
Acknowledgments
I am beyond blessed in many ways and one of the most significant is the number of wonderful people in my life. Writing can be a lonely, solitary endeavor but I could not do what I do without the support and love of the following people:
My husband, Jim, who loves and supports me in ways too numerous to mention. Thank you for the laughter, for bringing me goodies to keep me going, and for handling a million things that I take for granted. You are one in a billion!
My beautiful mom, who inspires me everyday.
My incredible and precious fur-babies who bring me smiles and more love than I ever thought possible. I would mention all their names but I would run out of room!
The amazing Joyce Lamb whose copyediting and fabulous advice are always on point.
Tricia Schmitt (Pickyme) for your gorgeous cover art.
The Reece’s Readers Facebook groups, for all their support, encouragement, and wonderful sense of humor.
Anne, my first reader, who always goes above and beyond in her advice and encouragement, and knows just what to say to keep me going.
My beta readers, Crystal, Hope, Julie, Alison, and Kris who always offer fabulous suggestions and encouragement.
Kara for reading the finished version and finding those things I missed even after reading it a thousand times.
Linda Clarkson of Black Opal Editing, who, as always, did an amazing job of finding those superfluous words and that one specific thing that made so much difference! So appreciate your eagle eye, Linda.
Special thanks to Hope for your help and assistance in a multitude of things. Thank you for your generous heart and for keeping me on track.
To my readers, thank you for your patience and encouragement as I learned my way around a new series and brand new characters. I hope you love them as much as I do!

Discover the exciting and mysterious world of Grey Justice!
The Grey Justice Group
There’s More Than One Path To Justice
Justice isn’t always swift or fair and only those who have felt the pain of denied justice can truly understand its bitter taste. But justice delayed doesn’t have to be justice denied. Enter the Grey Justice Group, ordinary citizens swept up in extraordinary circumstances. Led by billionaire philanthropist Grey Justice, this small group of operatives gains justice for victims when other paths have failed.
Nothing to Lose
Choices Are Easy When You Have
Nothing Left To Lose
Kennedy O’Connell had all the happiness she’d ever dreamed—until someone stole it away. Now on the run for her life, she has a choice to make—disappear forever or make those responsible pay. Her choice is easy.
Two men want to help her, each with their own agenda.
Detective Nick Gallagher is accustomed to pursuing killers within the law. Targeted for death, his life turned inside out, Nick vows to bring down those responsible, no matter the cost. But the beautiful and innocent Kennedy O’Connell brings out every protective instinct. Putting aside his own need for vengeance, he’ll do whatever is necessary to keep her safe and help her achieve her goals.
Billionaire philanthropist Grey Justice has a mission, too. Dubbed the ‘White Knight’ of those in need of a champion, few people are aware of his dark side. Having seen and experienced injustice—Grey knows its bitter taste. Gaining justice for those who have been wronged is a small price to pay for a man’s humanity.
With the help of a surprising accomplice, the three embark on a dangerous game of cat and mouse. The stage is set, the players are ready…the game is on. But someone is playing with another set of rules and survivors are not an option.
