This is the biggest trial of my career.

A murder case, and I have all the evidence I need to put the guy away.

Unfortunately, just before my trial is about to come up, my superior assigns me extra help for the case.

Back into my life walks Ben McNamara: an ex–marine JAG, a previous fling, and someone I'd rather remain buried in the past.

Just when I thought it couldn't get much worse, my murder victim turns up. And she's alive.

The case confounds Ben, but not the attraction budding between him and Sally. Their mutual desire never died. Can Ben prove to her that he's a changed man? He may never get the chance, because the closer Sally gets to the surprising truth, the closer she gets to a desperate killer….

To find her missing sister and an attacker she can't remember, criminal profiler Mia Perez teams up with gorgeous Boston PD Lieutenant Gray Bartlett. Their prime suspect: a psychotic serial killer. But when Mia's prints are found on the gun used in recent murders Gray doesn't know what to think. Is the brainy beauty he's falling for being framed?

Mia finds herself attracted to the hero risking his life to protect her. Yet she keeps a deadly secret of her past from Gray. Now she needs more than his desire — she needs him to prove her innocence, find her sister...and keep her alive.
