Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz dazzles with this thrilling contemporary romance of deadly secrets and desires. When a mysterious man enters a bookshop and demands a rare... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is a great suspense story with plenty of romance. The main characters are so different in personality that it seemed impossible for them to like each other. Mercy was a naive book store owner and Croft was a mercenary that was used to violence. As a team, they wanted to capture the drug dealer that supposedly had died in a fire three yeas ago. Gladstone (the evil character) survived the fire and had plastic surgery in order to become a drug lord/art collector again. Very easy book to read with all the necessary components that make you want to hurry and finish the book.
A Jewel of a story.

I can't remember what I read before I found Jayne Ann Krentz! This is one of my favorites. The story is exciting, faced paced, but not too fast. Jayne takes the relationship to believable yet passionate and exiting places. In all of her books she portrays the hero and the heroine as honorable, trustworthy and passionate, qualities you don't find much anymore either in real life or fiction. I find this so intriguing and inspiring. I love the setting; rare books, martial arts, travel to exotic locales (Colorado) and memorable love scenes. Definitely a keeper! Jayne has written books under the names of Stephanie James, Amanda Glass (a rare find), Jayne Castle and Amanda Quick. She does it all, contemporary romance, futuristic, and historical - a collectible author, don't miss any of them.
Loved it!
