Khaki & Bone: A Melody Winters Novel

By Mary Mars

Melody Winters needs a vacation! After a business trip to Australia full of overly amorous suitors, Melody stops in Hawaii for some sun and surf. But a monster from her past catches up with her and she finds herself in a bizarre beach community where she is the bride du jour and must swim with the sharks.

Stopping in LA for the night, she argues with her boyfriend, detective Mike Shields and runs down the hillside where she is accosted by Zeke, a CIA operative, who flies her to Carlos, the spoiled nephew of a Mexican drug cartel kingpin, who intends to marry her. Trapped behind the cement walls of the uncle's home, Melody is an unwelcome prisoner.

Faced with the most violent, evil man she's ever met, Melody must learn the "rules" of the household or face dire consequences. And Tio is not the hero uncle Carlos thinks he is. He harbors violent secrets that propelled him to cartel boss. And he doesn't think much of Carlos. In fact, he intends to have Melody for himself. But he's vicious and cruel and Melody fears for her very life.
