BLURB
Cold-case detective Parker McCall has
spent fifteen years trying to solve his brother’s murder. Now a chance
photo of the killer in the newspaper sets him hard on the woman’s trail.
A former teenaged runaway, reclusive, award-winning photojournalist B.K. Elliot
chronicles the harsh reality of life on the streets -- until a photo in the
paper reveals her identity, blowing the lid off her secret past. With a
powerful murderer now dogging her heels, and her police officer step-father
determined to silence her permanently, the last person she can afford to trust
is a cop. So why does sexy police detective Parker McCall tempt her to
break her silence and resurrect ideals she’d lost years ago? As danger
closes in, and with more than her own life at stake, Brynn must decide if the
duty-bound cop will betray her...or heal her battered heart.
EXCERPT
His gaze swung back to hers. Several
seconds ticked by. His scrutiny made her uneasy, the intensity in his eyes
making it impossible to breathe.
And, suddenly, Brynn suspected he
knew more than he’d let on—about her relationship to her stepfather, about her
troubled childhood, about the horrific abuse that drove her from home. That he
was simply biding his time—like the trained interrogator he was—waiting for her
to confess the truth.
She couldn’t believe how tempted she
was to do just that—to forget that he was a cop, to ignore the danger hounding
her footsteps and tell him the unvarnished truth.
But then, Parker’s expression
changed. His eyes were just as intense, but hotter, more hypnotic, like
whirlpools dragging her under—in a decidedly sensual way.
Her pulse battered her throat. He
pushed away from the truck and moved even closer, trapping her against the cab.
And that insane attraction rippled between them, that unruly maelstrom of need.
Her breath backed up in her lungs.
Her belly tightened, acute tremors of excitement tripping along her nerves. She
tore her gaze from his jet black eyes to the black stubble shadowing his
granite jaw, and stalled on his gripping mouth. Then he reached out and stroked
his finger down her cheek, sending a torrent of pleasure streaming through her
veins.
Was he going to kiss her?
His gaze dropped to her mouth. Her
heart nearly leaped from her chest.
And for a wild moment she wondered
if she should push him away—or pull him close.
