Serena Hamilton?s losses have brought her to a new low. Her husband died 6 years ago and after a long, brave fight, her mother passed away two weeks ago. She and Riker, her 9 year-old son, have come to her parents? near-Austin home to help her father sort through her mother?s things.
Deep in the throes of loneliness, Serena visits a bar and meets a handsome stranger. After a night of torrid sex, Serena goes home to her son and father. Serena is not a one-night-stand kind of person; she feels guilty, but she also feels fascinated by the man she met.
When she returns to the bar the second night, Hunter Fletcher is there, waiting for her. He?s a love-?em-and-leave-?em kind of guy; he doesn?t believe in long good-byes or commitments. However, there?s something about this woman.
Hunter is ideally suited for his work as a CIA operative; he has no attachments or friends, except the other members of his operative group. Hunter has dark secrets from his past ? his dangerous job keeps him from having to deal with them.
What happens when the unthinkable occurs? The rest of the novel swirls around this question. Serena and Hunter are very likeable and interesting. The action moves at a fast clip and it is difficult to set the book aside. I don?t think Loraine Heath is capable of writing a bad book!
This is the second novel of a pair of contemporary stories.
