The
Bachelor Missions
Kristian
Clark and the Agency Trap Series Book 1
by
Jes Drew
Genre:
Speculative Thriller, Espionage Romance
The
good-guys, the bad-guys, and the wild card- it's the ultimate game of
cloak and dagger...
Kristian Clark, private eye, thought his days
as a special agent were behind him, but when he's drafted into
action, he finds himself reunited with his old team- and painful
memories of why they broke up in the first place. But as he plunges
into mission after mission- from a 'holy heist' to babysitting a
young hacker to going undercover in a cult- Kristian find that
everything he tried to leave behind is coming back to haunt him with
a vengeance, and then some. First there's the mysterious woman who
knows more about Kristian- and his past- than makes sense while using
science fiction weapons that don't make sense period. Then there are
the shady powers-that-be who are responsible for drafting him back
into this world to satisfy their own nefarious agendas. It's all
Kristian can do to keep from being pulled into their games as he
tries to figure out who to trust and what to fight for, even as the
trap put in place to destroy him is set with a ticking clock.
When
did espionage get so complicated?
When I step into the cult's banquet hall again, I find Susan standing on the other side, kind of off on her own despite her chattering 'sisters' just a few feet away.
Without a word, I stride across the room, take my rookie partner into my arms, and bring my lips to hers.
“I was just trying to get information from the harpies,” I whisper a moment later, still holding my one ally of espionage in this dark place in my arms.
“I know. I was just trying to protect our cover,” she answers, equally low before kissing me again to keep up appearances.
I pull away slightly. “Then let me protect you- stay away from those girls. They're… unnatural.”
She leans in again kisses me long and hard before whispering, “I know.”
I kiss her forehead. “We have to get out of here.”
“I know.”
“They're messing with our minds.”
“I know.
I press my lips to hers one last time before pulling away and whispering, “I'm actually starting to like this.”
“I know.”
“I wish I didn't say that.”
She smiles wryly and gives me a quick peck on the nose. “I know.”
I smile back and smooth her hair behind her ear. “Well, now that that's out of the water and we've effectively ruined everyone's appetites, let's go eat dinner.”

Clark and the Agency Trap Series Book 2
The
classic game of cat and mouse- but who's the cat and who's the
mouse?
Kristian Clark is still reeling from his accidental
marriage to his rookie, Susan Deanna, when NEO anarchists attack
their agency and they have to go on the run with his- their?- two
adopted children. But the NEOs aren't the only ones who are after
them- the strange agency that seems straight from the pages of a
science fiction novel is hot on their tails. But are they going after
Kristian? Or Susan? Or both?
But as they work to stay one step
ahead of their pursers, secrets begin to come to light about their
enemies, their friends, and even each other. Things are in play that
are beyond any of their understanding or attempts to control. Even if
all reality seems to be a fabrication, will Kristian be able to face
his calling? What if everything you knew was a lie?
Ruptured
Reality
Kristian
Clark and the Agency Trap Series Book 2.5
I'd
tell you I love you... But then you'd make me change the baby's
diaper.
Kristian Clark can go undercover for months on end,
combat multiple enemies at once, and even teleport through
dimensions. He should be ready for everything. But having a newborn
child... is a little outside his skill set.
And the universe
isn't ready for little Shannon either. The tentative layers of the
universe begins to peel apart and his adopted son gets pulled through
a portal in the hospital.
Along with an angry wife and
reunited best friend, Kristian travels the dimensions to find his son
and somehow find a way to save reality without giving up his little
girl.
Also includes seven other stories.
All profit
goes to charity.
Agents
Adam and Eve
Kristian
Clark and the American Agenda Book 1
Dream
not of other worlds...
They call him agent and he answers.
They tell him conquer and he does. But there's something they don't
know. He's beginning to remember. His name is Kristian Clark. He has
a wife and four children. Or he did. But he will find them again,
whoever is left, wherever they are, and whatever it takes.
They
call her the Aisling. She does their missions only as far as it helps
her accomplish her own: to find and rescue the children of a fallen
woman. And she will not let anyone get in her way- most certainly not
the brainwashed father who has for so long been an unthinking weapon
for the government. To save the innocents, she will not hesitate to
do whatever it takes- no matter how much it condemns her.
They
are the root of a conspiracy that would bring two worlds together,
for good or for evil, for better or for worse, for life or for death.
Their choices shall echo throughout all eternity.

Praise for Agents Adam and Eve:
"Agents Adam and Eve is
the kind of book you can't put down, the kind that has you laughing
and crying. Jes Drew successfully keeps you turning the page and
renders you longing for more when the last page has been
turned."~Karsyn Shae, Creative Writer
"Kristian
Clark is back in an all-new duology after the birth of his twins. Are
he and his wife finally able to enter parenthood safely without the
threat of anarchist groups, or will Kristian have to sacrifice
everything to save those he loves?"~Allyson Kennedy, author of
Speak Your Mind
“I love the story! It felt so real and very
intense! I felt like I was in the story with the
characters!”

Miss Smith frowns at me when I appear beside her again. “What were you—?”
I hold up the gun. “It was too pretty to die.” Then I hand it to her with a gentlemanly bow. “For you, milady.”
This puts a distracted smile on her face as she pets it like a child would a puppy.
I’ve just given a child firearms. Lovely.
In the distance, the NEO base explodes.
I am the child’s firearm.
Maybe they all escaped. Maybe not. Why I care either way, I don’t know. Yet I do. I didn’t use to.
But things are different now. Since I began remembering. Since I realized the world I’m beginning to remember will never be mine again.
I walk and she follows my lead, unaware of the fact that I could teleport us from any point.
Then I come to a halt as realization washes over me. As Miss Smith keeps walking. As the fire burns beyond.
I’ve killed people. I’ve felt no remorse. All because I had no memories? Is that what makes me human and humane—my memories? Something that can be so easily taken away?
My hand reaches out to touch Miss Smith, and I teleport her back to her chambers before teleporting myself to mine.
Then I drop to my knees and bow my head. My bedpost makes a shadow of a cross beside me, and I find myself focusing even as my heart finds other things to occupy itself with.
“Oh, Susan,” I whisper. “How I have failed you.”
A mental image of my children flash through my mind’s eye. I know naught where they are or what’s become of them.
But if Aisling is right, then there are some who know. And if there is even a chance that I can somehow save what’s left of those who need me, then I will do whatever is necessary for as long as necessary to save them.
With this commitment in my heart, I look straight at the camera I know to be monitoring me 24/7. Then I rise and go on pretending nothing has happened whatsoever—that I am not an autonomous, independent, intelligent being capable of thought and willpower.
If a charade is what it will take to save my children without losing my memory and conscience again, so be it. This is my holy ambition, and nothing on earth or below the earth will be able to stop me.
I only pray that somehow that distant place called Heaven will fight with me.
