A sinfully sexy hero who is more than he seems; a strong-willed, intelligent heroine who is nobodys pushover; and an engaging plot richly imbued with danger and desire all come together brilliantly.
Chicago Tribune
Few authors have Medeiross storytelling talents. From the first page to the last, she holds you enthralled with an enchanting plot, charismatic characters, and strong sensuality. Its another deep-sigh keeper from a master!
RT Book Reviews (Top Pick!)
Medeiros is a superb storyteller. Both primary and secondary characters are vividly three-dimensional; her plot is full of tasty twists, and Medeiros can pull every last emotion from the reader with tear-inducing scenes and laugh-out-loud dialogue.
