About this eBook
For the past five years, FBI Special Agent Risa Jacobs has worked in the violent crimes against children division of the Houston FBI. She’s never had reason to believe there’s a target on her back . . . until now.
When the long-awaited reunion between Risa and her brother, Trenton, ends in tragedy, Risa is riddled with guilt, unable to cope with the responsibility she feels over his death. On leave from the FBI, Risa returns to her former career as an English teacher at a local college, only to see her past and present collide when one of her students, Carson Mercury, turns in an assignment that reads like an eyewitness account of her brother’s murder, with details never revealed publicly.
Alarmed by Carson’s inside knowledge of Trenton’s death, Risa reaches out to her former partner at the FBI. Special Agent Gage Patterson has been working a string of baby kidnappings, but he agrees to help look into Carson’s background. Risa and Gage soon discover their cases might be connected as a string of high-value thefts have occurred at properties where security systems were installed by Carson’s stepfather and children have gone missing. There’s a far more sinister plot at play than they ever imagined, and innocent lives are in danger.
For fans of romantic suspense comes a heart-pounding thriller about loss, betrayal, and finding the strength to trust again.

Wow! This was my first book by DiAnn Mills & I’m now a fan! If you enjoy romantic suspense, this book is a must read. From the get go, I was drawn in to this fast-paced, suspenseful, FBI mystery with a sweet romance and touch of faith woven through. It really kept me guessing, and didn’t shy a way from violent, evil enemies with nefarious intent. Highly recommend to romantic suspense fans!

Facing the Enemy, is another fantastic novel of inspirational romantic suspense that takes the reader on a fast-paced journey through murder and child abductions. The storyline involves some murders that seem to intertwine with each other taking the reader on a fast-paced roller coaster ride. So you might want to wait to start this book when you have plenty of time to sit down and read because I guarantee you won't want to put it down. I would highly recommend it.

I loved Facing the Enemy! The story flowed smoothly, with well-developed characters. It starts with a hit and run that kills the brother of FBI agent Risa Jacobs. Suspense builds from there, with Risa and her partner, Gage, trying to bring down a child-selling/adoption ring. I highly recommend this book.
