Cole Stockton had a will of steel and a raw determination to go after what he wanted – including Kelsey Murdock. He’d invaded her life, assaulting her with his sensuality, tempting her to be reckless. She sensed something dangerous about the man – in the secrets he refused to share, the past that still haunted him, the coiled tension that denied intimacy. For Cole, the past was a closed door. For Kelsey, that meant too many questions and no answers – and the best reason to walk away, before it was too late. But when a simple business trip turns into a dangerous survival game, she is plunged into a world Cole knows all too well. Now Kelsey must trust he knows it well enough to keep them both alive.“Who writes the best romance fiction today? No doubt it’s Jayne Ann Krentz.” – Affaire De Coeur
