Defense attorney Clare Westbrook functions very well in crisis mode—whether taking the media rap for an explosive case or bargaining with her teenaged niece, whom Clare is raising. But a shocking crime—the murder of her notoriously unethical boss—is about to test her heart and soul: heading the homicide investigation is irresistibly sexy detective Tony Sonterra. Now, a passion that is as risky as it is addictive pulls Clare into the crosshairs of a deadly mystery from the past. As the truth closes in and it becomes clear someone’s targeting her, Clare and Tony embark on a twisting chase in the Arizona heat, where their dangerous desire sparks a determined hunt for a killer.
