No one succeeds more brilliantly at blending these exhilarating elements in breathtaking novels of men and women forced to grapple with the deepest emotions and the highest risks. And theres no better proof than her new novel of suspense: Hot Target aims to thrill on every level. Like most men of action, Navy SEAL Chief Cosmo Richter never learned how to take a vacation. So when he finds himself facing a months leave, he offers his services to Troubleshooters Incorporated.

And she definitely doesnt. But her stubbornness doesnt make FBI agent Jules Cassidys job any easier. The fiercely independent filmmaker presents yet another emotional obstacle that Cassidy doesnt needhes already in the midst of a personal tug-of-war with his ex-lover, while fighting a growing attraction to Chadwicks brother.Determined to succeedand surviveon her own terms, Chadwick will face off with enemies and allies alike. But she doesnt count on the bond she forms with the quiet, capable Cosmo Richter. Yet even as their feelings bring them closer, the noose of deadly terror all around them draws tighter. And when all hell erupts, desire and desperate choices will collide on a killing ground that may trap them both in the crossfire.From the Hardcover edition.
