FOR THE LOVE OF A SPY
By: M. S. Spencer
The Plot:
In an era electric with possibility and
peril, Maris Graystone, political writer,
and Michael Kinder, CIA troubleshooter,
meet under oddly conventional circum-
stances. Despite the instantaneous sparks,
they both sense there is more to their rela-
tionship than physical attraction.
Their love affair intensifies against
the backdrop of the dramatic world
events of 1991—a disintegrating USSR,
Middle East peace talks, and Vietnam’s
reemergence on the world stage. Michael appears and disap-
pears at unpredictable moments, leaving Maris limp and love-
lorn. Looking for safe harbor for both her emotions and her
body, she welcomes the advances of a dashing French diplomat,
Émile de Canalon, who whisks her off to France.
Will she embrace the luxury and comfort of Émile and his
chateau or the romance of international intrigue with Michael?

An Excerpt
Less than ten minutes later, a familiar dark head hove into
view, dressed in a well-cut pinstriped business suit that set off his
powerful shoulders. His tie exactly matched his eyes, but it was
his face—set in a distinctly bland expression—that astonished
her. If she hadn’t already known those mobile, eloquent features
intimately, she would have walked right past him. Anyone else
would, too, assuming him to be a lobbyist for some trade union
or law firm—one of those empty suits haunting the restaurants
and offices of K Street in the District. He looked neither to the
right nor the left but strode directly to the counter . … She was
straining to peer around his broad back when he turned and
looked straight at her.
She couldn’t disappear. She couldn’t run. She had to brazen
it out. Michael said something in a low voice to his companions
and stepped over to her. He didn’t look bland anymore. In fact,
she sincerely hoped that either she would never see him again or
that she would never make him that angry again. His blue eyes
went nearly black, and he opened his mouth, baring every single
one of his beautiful white teeth. Maris took an involuntary step
back.
