Illicit Intent by Debbie Baldwin




Hello GR readers! Thank you for supporting independent authors and sharing your wonderful finds with the rest of the Goodreads community!

Illicit Intent is the second installment in the Bishop Security series and features 6'5" Navy SEAL, Miller "Tox" Buchanan, and reporter Calliope Garland. Calliope gets in over her head when she crashes the computer network at a sketchy financial firm and unwittingly leaves with information worth billions. She also happens upon a worthless plastic tube that contains a priceless work of art. When various factions in search of both items start threatening her life, she turns to the one man she knows can protect her. Tox is regimented, closed off, and fearless. Calliope is free-spirited, open, and flighty. Opposites attract, but can opposites form a lasting bond?

The history and facts surrounding the infamous robbery of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston are all accurate. Researching the heist that has intrigued me for years was fascinating. From the descriptions of the Boston architecture to the patrol shifts of the Boston police, everything is described very nearly as it was on the night of March 18, 1990—with my own fictional twist thrown in. I hope you enjoy reading Illicit Intent as much as I enjoyed writing it!
