SOUTH (The Hunt for Alan Martin Book 3) (Kindle Edition)

At the Honolulu airport, Jayden Pierce made a mistake that will change everything: she grabbed the wrong gray rolling bag.
She didn’t realize it until she was alone in her hotel room. Until she opened it. Until she saw what was inside—something that shouldn’t exist, something that proves a deadly conspiracy is in motion.

And someone on her tour group to Sydney is behind it.

Dakota Rivers has been undercover for three days, embedded in a tour group bound for Australia. His mission: identify and stop a critical threat to President Isaac White before the Opera House summit in two weeks.

When he discovers what Jayden is carrying, everything points to her. Every instinct says she’s the threat he’s hunting.

But his gut says she’s something else entirely.

So Dakota makes a calculated gamble. Instead of turning her in, he proposes an alliance. They’ll work together—go undercover as an engaged couple, hunt for the real threat among their fellow tourists, and stop whatever’s coming before the President arrives.

It’s the only move that makes sense. It’s also completely insane.

For two weeks, they’ll tour Australia while playing the perfect couple. Snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef while watching for enemies. Wine tasting in Hunter Valley while identifying suspects. Romantic dinners where they’re both calculating exits and wondering who’s really playing whom.

The problem? Jayden IS playing him. Because she’s not a travel blogger. She’s a Black Swan operative on a classified mission. And she’s definitely not telling Dakota that.

Both of them are keeping secrets. Both of them are hunting the same enemy. And both of them are falling for the one person they absolutely cannot trust.

The tour group is full of people with something to hide:

• The anxious consultant who seems terrified of everything
• The British couple with suspicious backgrounds
• The photographer who never stops watching
• The honeymoon couple who might be too perfect
• The elderly birdwatcher who sees more than he should

Someone among them is dangerous. Someone has already crossed lines that can’t be uncrossed. And as the tour moves from Cairns to Sydney, as the President’s arrival draws closer, the stakes climb higher with every mile.

Because Alan Martin doesn’t just want to win. He wants to send a message. And he’ll eliminate anyone who gets in his way.

When the conspiracy explodes on Sydney Harbour, Jayden will find herself in the crossfire. Dakota will have to choose between his mission and saving her. And all their secrets—every lie, every cover story, every truth they’ve been hiding—will come spilling out.

In the end, trust isn’t a luxury. It’s survival. And two liars might just have to tell the truth to save each other.
