There's no escaping the sweltering heat when White House
correspondent Laurel Stewart arrives in Somersett, South
Carolina, and discovers that her best friend — the vice
president's protocol advisor — has disappeared. As
frustrated as she is by Detective Joe Gannon's skepticism
regarding her suspicions, Laurel finds his smooth-talking
southern ways and brazen bedroom eyes disturbingly,
dangerously, seductive.
With the homicide rate escalating as fast as the mercury,
the last thing Joe needs is a stubborn, argumentative
reporter — particularly not an outsider from Washington,
D.C., who triggers a sexual jolt at every encounter —
spinning her crazy conspiracy theories. But while he may
not entirely believe Laurel Stewart, Joe can't stop himself
from wanting her. Thrown together by necessity, drawn
together by passion, Laurel and Joe follow a twisted trail
into the darkest corners of the sultry, moss-draped city to
uncover a secret someone is willing to kill to keep.
