“Brock, keep the Red Reign team out of the house. I don’t want this case to go sideways because of their presence, so make sure we act within the boundaries of the search warrant. Secure the perimeter. Detain every person of interest on the premises and take them in for questioning. Set up a covert surveillance team. Anyone new arrives, I want them detained and brought in.” Jared’s piercing gaze silenced the objection about to burst from Paxton’s lips at the audacity to take charge of her team. “Miss Lee and I will take the little girl home to her parents and join you at HQ later.”
He firmly grasped her elbow and guided her to a black Humvee. Usually, it wouldn’t have stopped Paxton from ripping into him for manhandling her but since she was carrying a precious little bundle, she curbed the desire to act out.
“The next one referring to my team as kitties is going to regret it.” Her voice cut through the silence as Jared closed the door behind him.
He cast an amused look her way. Her eyes sparkled with anger as she noticed the broad smile illuminated by his white teeth.
“Zip it, commander. I find your holier-than-thou attitude and overwrought mannerisms offensive.”
Paxton clamped her mouth shut from further lambasting the annoying man as Courtney turned with wide eyes to watch them. She’d already been through an ordeal and didn’t need to witness two grown-ups sniping at each other in a power struggle.
No, I’ll save my wrath for when we’re alone. Jared Bates has interfered for the last time with a Red Reign PI team assignment.

About the Author
“Isn’t it a universal truth that it’s our singular experiences and passion, for whatever thing or things, which molds us all into the individuals we become? Whether it's hidden in the depths of our soul or exposed for all to see?”
Linzi Basset is a South African born animal rights supporter with a poet’s heart, and she is also a bestselling fiction writer of suspense-filled romance erotica books; who as the latter, refuses to be bound to any one sub-genre. She prefers instead to stretch herself as a storyteller which has resulted in her researching and writing historical and even paranormal themed works.
Her initial offering: Club Alpha Cove, a BDSM club suspense series released back in 2015, reached Amazon’s Bestseller list, and she has been on those lists ever since. Labelling her as prolific is a gross understatement as just a few short years later she has now been published over fifty times; a total which excludes the other published works of her alter ego: Isabel James who co-authors.
“I write from the inside out. My stories are both inside me and a part of me, so it can be either pleasurable to release them or painful to carve them out. I live every moment of every story I write. So, if you're looking for spicy and suspenseful, I'm your girl ... woman ... writer ... you know what I mean!"
Linzi believes that by telling stories in her own voice, she can better share with her readers the essence of her being: her passionate nature; her motivations; and her wildest fantasies. She feels every touch as she writes, every kiss, every harsh word uttered, and this to her is the key to a never-ending love of writing.
Ultimately, all books by Linzi Basset are about passion. To her, passion is the driving force of all emotion; whether it be lust, desire, hate, trust, or love. This is the underlying message contained in her books. Her advice: “Believe in the passions driving your desires; live them; enjoy them; and allow them to bring you happiness.”
