Bestselling author Sandra Chastain spins a breathless tale of dark menace and dangerous desire as two people with guarded hearts find themselves at the mercy of an intense mutual attraction.
 
Content to live without passion and pleasure, Sterling Lindsey prefers solitude—until she abandons the refuge she’s created for herself . . . unable to ignore an invitation from the mysterious Lincoln “Mac” McAllister, someone she knows only through emails and late-night phone calls. But their plans to rendezvous take on a sudden urgency when Sterling has a close call with the gunman who left her for dead ten years ago.
 
As one of the richest men in the world, Mac can pretty much do what he wants. And for Mac that means helping people—in Sterling’s case, whisking her off to his fortress compound in New Mexico. But it may not be enough to stop a cunning killer—and it offers even less protection against the rebellious stirrings in his own heart . . . and hers. Because no matter how determined Mac and Sterling are never to love again, they’re powerless to resist the pull of desire—especially once they fall into each others’ arms.
