Rusty Ellis

Under Duress Rusty Ellis

A mob boss. A young widow and her kids. And a retired Army Ranger. When their lives collide, no one gets out unscathed. From retired Army Ranger Chase Harper's point of view, the original directive was simple. Accompany an airman to his first base assignment and return home. Simple. Uneventful. A half-day drive to Minot, North Dakota, then back to his home in Montana. Little did he know, his decision to make an innocent detour into a local pawn shop would change lives forever. Sara, a young widow with two children, never intended to put her family in harm's way. When a stranger comes to town and tries to help, Sara and her kids are left stranded, torn between her emotions and the danger his presence creates. Now Sara must decide. Take his help and fight back or give in and tell him to leave? With every passing hour the stakes will climb. Exiled by his uncle from the big city to Minot, Fat Joey dug in his heels and set up shop, more specifically an extension of the family business. In this small town, he calls the shots. He's the Boss. And he isn't about to let some ex-Ranger from out of town derail his plans. Not in his town. Not on his turf. The struggle between common sense and duty. The two not always in sync. Common sense telling Chase to walk away. Duty telling him to stay. If he leaves now, will it only make matters worse for Sara and her kids? Or should he see it through and gamble with his own life... and theirs? Under Duress is the second book in a series of Vigilante Justice and Christian Suspense novels. If you like fast-paced suspense, real-to-life characters, and satisfying storylines, then you'll love Under Duress. If Jack Reacher had a cousin from Montana, his name would be Chase Harper, and you'd want him on your side. Buy Under Duress today and join Chase Harper as he scrambles for justice in this new series!
