Forged in Secrets by Kendra Warden

Sometimes the devil lurks in paradise…

Office manager Grace Hinton is used to working behind the scenes at Forge Brothers Security. She knows that the team can’t function without her, even if her long-time crush Benjamin Forge would never be willing to admit it. But when her childhood friend Katie goes missing on spring break, she can’t bear to stay at her desk.
Solving a mystery at the beach surrounded by rowdy college students isn’t exactly Ben’s idea of a great time. He’d much rather hide in his computer cave with the air conditioning at full blast, but even he has to admit he could use some practice in the field—even if it means spending time with Grace and her limitless enthusiasm for driving him crazy.
As the puzzle behind Katie’s disappearance begins to come together, they realize that even the darkest secrets can sometimes hide in plain sight.
