Book description
Linda Lael Miller ignites the combustible passion between attorney
Clare Westbrook and homicide detective Tony Sonterra in this
page-turning conclusion to her bestselling trilogy of
"heart-stopping suspense"
(Winter Haven News,
FL).
A senseless murder. A sizzling adventure.
Clare Westbrook is a survivor who built her law practice from sheer
determination -- and an unexpected inheritance. Now Clare, carrying
her lover Tony Sonterra's child, has taken the biggest risk of all:
saying "yes" to his marriage proposal and finally burying
her lifelong commitment phobia. So why is fear running through her
veins and haunting her dreams? Sonterra is fired up to leave Phoenix
for small-town Arizona, to replace the town's missing police chief and
target a lethal desert crime ring. Clare's willing to stand by her
man, but her fiancé won't be the only one flirting with danger on the
job: as a special investigator for the D. A.'s office, Clare is
plunged into a race to find a missing child whose mother was murdered
-- a hot case that puts Clare's safety, and that of her unborn child,
on the edge. For in a place where secrets have nowhere to hide, the
promise of Clare's bright future could vanish in the blink of an
eye....
