Montana Ranger's Wedding Vow Read online

  “Have you heard of the recent bombing of our embassy in Ottawa?

  “I’ve been out of radio, television and cell phone contact for the past two months. Fill me in.”

  “Two radicalized terrorists, brothers, fashioned bombs out of fertilizer and other ingredients, and set them off in front of the embassy. Nineteen people were killed, ten of them children on a field trip.”

  A surge of anger burned through Mad Dog. Killing adults was bad enough, but murdering children… “Why do you think these brothers will follow the CIA agent to Montana?”

  “Not brothers. Brother. After the bombing, the agent was tasked with assassinating the brothers. The agent got one of them while they were in Toronto. From all the chatter on the internet, we know the remaining brother has sworn vengeance. Not to mention, he’s already made an attempt on the operative’s life. That’s where you come in.”

  “How so?”

  “Your mission will be to cover the agent’s six. At the same time, you’ll be on the lookout for the terrorist and remove him.”

  “Just one terrorist?”

  “For now. As far as we know, the man is working alone, but we suspect he’s recruiting additional members to his cause. Whether they’re with him, or in other parts of the country, is unknown.”

  “Montana, then?”

  “That’s where the agent has gone.”

  Mad Dog felt a rush of adrenaline course through his body. Something he hadn’t felt in a long time. “What’s the agent’s name? Where in Montana will I find him?”

  “Jolie Richards. Head for Eagle Rock, Montana. It’s a small town in the foothills of the Crazy Mountains.”

  “Jolie Richards.” Mad Dog rolled the name on his tongue. “Strange name for a guy.”

  “Maybe because she’s not a guy. Jolie Richards is a hotshot, trained assassin for the CIA. She’s an expert marksman and knows her shit.”

  “I don’t know,” Mad Dog hedged. “I’ve never worked with a woman on a mission.”

  “It’s all part of your cover. You two will pretend to be a couple. Agent Richards is from that area. She’s heading back to her father’s ranch, where she’s familiar with the territory. She wants to draw her Tango away from potential collateral damage. We need you there to be her backup and to ensure the eradication of yet one more terrorist on US soil.”

  Mad Dog took a moment to process all Lambert had said. He’d be one of a two-man, or man-woman team, responsible for identifying and eliminating a threat to the US population. He’d have a purpose.

  “Mission accepted?” Lambert queried.

  With a nod he knew Lambert couldn’t see, Mad Dog answered. “Mission accepted.”

  Holy shit, I’m back in the game.
