A mercenary rescues his former fiance and discovers he still loves her in this romantic suspense from the New York Times–bestselling author.

Journalist Morgan Kerr shouldn't be surprised that ex-fiancé Adam Quinn wants nothing to do with her. Two years ago the rugged mercenary ran out on her, believing she'd betrayed him. But with her best friend murdered and her own father threatening to cart her away to a loony bin, she needs Quinn's help and forgiveness. Never mind that she never stopped loving him.

Reluctantly, Quinn is in. He knows Morgan's not crazy. With old feelings reigniting like wildfire, their investigation turns fiercely passionate. Quinn tries to convince himself it's nothing more than lust. But when a killer takes Morgan hostage, he realizes it is something more . . . a second chance with the woman he's always loved.
