The Evangeline Series: Persist (Paperback)

Persist has been recognized as a B.R.A.G. Medallion Honoree by IndieBRAG and was a Finalist in the Independent Author Network Book of the Year awards.Sam was laid off from her job just as she had a breakthrough on a strange case she was assigned regarding the disappearance of four hikers. This twist of fate comes with a silver lining: a new job opportunity as a field agent with a well-known government contracting firm, The Baxter Group; a role that would allow her to continue her work on the case of the missing hikers. Being a field agent is her dream job-the job she's spent years grooming herself for-but she must prove herself first in an extensive training environment.Benjamin Baxter, the Director of Field Operations at The Baxter Group, was a field operative for nine years until his grandfather, John Baxter-the founder and CEO of The Baxter Group-pulled him out of the field and put him in the Director role. Ben resents this new role and craves being in the field again. When the profile for a field operative trainee, Evangeline Grace Sampierre (Sam), comes across his desk, he balks at her lack of experience, but through her finds a way back into the field.Sam-focused, headstrong, and a recovering social recluse-needs to earn the respect of her would-be boss, Benjamin Baxter. But her stubborn need to always be in control and self-reliant plagues her. She is determined to solve the case of the missing hikers, but can she do it on her own?Ben-smart, handsome, but painfully aloof-has to navigate his new role as a leader while satisfying his need to be in the field. Will Ben give Sam a chance to prove herself?Sam and Ben-two people from two different worlds-collide unexpectedly under a shared purpose at Hampton National Forest. What will they learn? How will they grow and change? And to what lengths are they willing to go to get what they want?
