Storm Runners

Matt Stromsoe was in high school when he met the boy who would someday murder his wife and son . . .

Once Stromsoe was best friends with brilliant, unpredictable Mike Tavarez. That was before Matt joined the San Diego P.D. and Mike left Harvard to run *La Eme*, the brutal Mexican Mafia, before a vengeance-obsessed Tavarez blew away everything Stromsoe loved, leaving him physically and emotionally broken.

Years later, Mike Tavarez is in prison for life, controlling his vast criminal empire from within a maximum security facility. Matt Stromsoe has rebounded from rock bottom to become a private investigator—and he’s starting to feel something for Frankie Hatfield, the beautiful local TV weather forecaster he’s been hired to protect from a stalker. But powerful, dangerous people are becoming *too* interested in Frankie’s remarkable experiments with rain. And bars alone won’t keep Tavarez from his ultimate goal: to make Matt Stromsoe suffer the unendurable torment of losing everything . . . *again*.
