Romance Suspense

What really happened a year ago? Heather Shaw has too few facts to make any sense of her parent's violent argument, the accusations behind her father's embezzlement charges, the trail of blood and death left behind from her father's true clients -- terrorists. Heather is in hiding, sent away by a father who's terrified for her safety and fears the killers will come after her. He'll contact her only when the matter is resolved. Easy for her father to say with his army of security people. She's in San Francisco alone -- very alone, and scared.

Caleb Edge, a T-FLAC/psi counterterrorist operative in the psychic phenomena division, is watching Heather Shaw. He knows her father is banker to some of the world's most lethal tangos. What he must find out is where Brian Shaw is hiding. How difficult could this be with his teleporting abilities? Easy in, ask the question, easy out. NOT SO!

Caleb has bungled their first meeting but with his unique ability to manipulate, or rewind, time, he's going to try it again. If it wasn't so important to extract the intel on her father's whereabouts, Caleb would have walked away. FAST. He's drawn to this woman in ways he hasn't experienced in years. Not a good thing. Because of the Nairne's Curse, he can never be in a relationship long enough to make it complicated. Sex - YES; Love - NO. Over the centuries, all the women the Edge men have loved have died. He and his brothers are not going to let this family curse continue.

When did this casual seduction to get intel turn into promises, hope and joy? When did it turn more powerful, more intense? NOT GOOD AT ALL. It must remain just a means to an end. but it's too late, for the game has turned deadly. Billions of dollars worth of tango's funds are missing and some of the most feared, deadly, ruthless, perverse terrorists of the century, her father's "business associates," are hunting Heather down like bloodhounds. They must be stopped. The only way to extract Shaw is to use her as bait. Caleb is terrified for this woman he has yet to admit is his Lifemate.

EDGE OF FEAR is pulse-pounding, edge-of-your-seat, nail- biting suspense. Intense, passionate, sensual, with just the right amount of humor to take the "edge" off the double heart beats you get turning each page. It's suspense at its terroristic best. Begin this incredible trilogy with Gabriel's story in EDGE OF DANGER, a July 2006 release. Follow up with Caleb's exciting adventure in EDGE OF FEAR (a perfect title) this month. Then conclude with Duncan's story in EDGE OF DARKNESS, a September 2006 release. I can hardly wait to read the conclusion to this thrilling, heart- pounding, passionate trilogy. Don't miss the exciting adventures of the Edge brothers. You'll lose your heart to all three. Suspense at its very best. Brava, Ms. Adair.

SUMMARY

He would rewrite the past to save the woman he loves.

The fearless Caleb Edge is one of three brothers assigned to the top-secret paranormal unit of an elite counterterrorism group. As a prized T-FLAC agent, Caleb uses his special mystical gifts to rewind history, halt evil in its tracks, and protect innocent people . . . like Heather Shaw.

The beautiful daughter of a terrorism financier, Heather watched her father brutally murder her mother. Now, to escape his clutches, Heather begins a new life, far from the realm of power and privilege in which she grew up. On the hunt for Heather's father, Caleb hopes that Heather can lead him to his target, and he'll do anything to achieve his objective ...even if it means using his striking good looks to his advantage. But in the face of malevolent forces, Caleb doesn't anticipate a burning conflict between duty and desire, or that he might have to use his power to turn back time...not for justice, but for love.

Only Freely Given will This Curse be Done.
To Break The Spell, Three Must Work As One...
