Monica’s stomach fluttered with excitement as she told the interesting man she’d been flirting with online for weeks all about her weekend plans. He was a great match, and they had so many things in common. But sometimes your life can come down to one single bad decision…
NYPD Computer-crimes detective Connor Mitchel’s sister is missing. As he combs through his sister’s life, he realizes Monica might not have been this killer’s first target—or his last. In a twisted game of cat and mouse, Connor thinks he’s finally found the man responsible for his sister’s disappearance. Unfortunately, he’ll first need to convince the shy, distrustful Evelyn Price she could be the next victim tangled in the murderer’s web if she doesn’t agree to help him catch the killer. But just as Connor and Evelyn close in on their quarry, the killer has one last trick up his sleeve that could trap them all…
Gabriel tightened his fist around the stupid plastic keychain until the cheap material splintered. Sharp shards pierced his skin, but he relished the pain.
Pain was good.
Pain brought pleasure.
What he didn’t like was a dumb bitch who thought she was smarter than him. He’d done his research. Lacey Pierson lived with Evelyn. Their whole charade about bumping into each other was laughable. Did they really think they could play him?
No, he was the one who played the game. Evelyn was the little mouse he couldn’t wait to play
with. As the two women left the restaurant, he sat. He lifted his glass and swirled, clinking the ice together as a grin spread across his face. The game had already begun, and Evelyn didn’t even realize it.
He brought his glass to his lips and tilted his head back, swallowing the liquor in one gulp. The scotch burned all the way to the pit of his stomach, its heat combining with the fire lit by his desire to see this little game through. A game of cat and mouse.
He wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and laughed. The mouse might be outside of his reach at the moment, but his kitty waited for him. He slammed the glass down, threw a few bills on the table, and stood to leave as desire raged inside him. Excitement tickled his nerve endings.
His evening with Evelyn might have been cut short, but the night was young. Hours of playtime waited for him.
But first, he needed to wait for Evelyn to follow the breadcrumbs he’d laid at her feet and run to her fucking cop. They’d come for him tonight, and he had to make sure to set the stage.

Purchase Girl Long Gone from:
She attended Bowling Green State University with a dream of studying creative writing, but the thought of sharing her work in front of a group of strangers was enough to make her change her major to Political Science.
After college she moved across the state of Ohio with her soon-to-be husband. Once they married and had babies, she decided to stay home and raise her children. Some days her sanity slipped further across the line to crazy town so she decided to brush off her rusty writing chops and see what happened.
Danielle now spends her days running kids around, playing with her beloved dog, and typing as fast as she can to get the stories in her head written down. She loves to write contemporary romance with relatable characters that make her readers’ hearts happy, as well as fast-paced romantic suspense that leaves them on the edge of their seats. Her story ideas are as varied and unpredictable as her everyday life.
