Phoenix (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781648906510)

Jack McCauley is at a dead end. He's run out of money, luck, and love. There'd be no one to mourn him if he died tomorrow. Out of the blue, he's given the chance to begin anew-another identity, another life, another chance at love. Should he take it? Should he start over?

Jack is young, good-looking, and desperate for his next acting gig. His boyfriend is history, his rent is unpaid, and his agent isn't returning his calls. He's offered one chance at redemption-a small part in a western being shot in Arizona-if only he can make his way there from LA by noon the following day.

Hitching a ride with Martin Brenner seems just the ticket. Martin is on his way to a new life in Phoenix and seems pleased to pick up an extra passenger.

Little does Jack know that a simple pickup will lead to the acting job he least expected-the role of a lifetime. But nothing in Phoenix is what it seems on the surface. Can Jack act his way out of an intricate jigsaw of lies, blackmail, and murder?
