    FAMILY ON THE RUN

    Criminals are trying to kidnap attorney Samantha Callahan's adopted daughter, Lily–and she has no idea why. So when bullets start flying, Samantha and Lily speed off in her car…and crash right into help. Ex–cop Reid Palmer is shocked when former law school classmate Samantha rear–ends his car and then climbs in with her daughter and begs him to drive. Now they are on the run, and Reid will do anything to protect them and figure out why kidnappers are after Lily. As they struggle to evade capture, Reid begins to realise that Samantha is more to him than just a woman in trouble. But with the enemies closing in and their motives finally revealed, will Reid be able to make sure justice is served?
