Professional art restorer Emily Greene is in no mood to
see the devil-may-care Max Aries. She hasn’t forgotten – or
forgiven – the way Max dropped into her life a year ago,
stole her heart, then vanished without a word. Max hadn’t
kept in touch with his father, Daniel, either. Daniel Aries
had been a master of art restoration and reproduction, and
not only Emily’s longtime mentor, but a trusted friend. His
unexpected suicide devastates her. And when the prodigal
playboy Max returns, her welcome is less than warm – even
though his timely arrival in her bedroom saves her from a
lethal intruder. But her fury gives way to fear when Max
reveals that his father’s death was actually murder... and
that Emily’s life is now in danger. Like it or not, to stay
alive, Emily must put herself in Max’s hands. And once upon
a time, that wasn’t such a bad place to be.
But what
killer would target professional restorers of Renaissance
artworks? Max suspects that a pencil sketch found in his
father’s studio, inscribed with a cryptic code, may hold
the key. His hunch is confirmed when intel from his control
at the counterterrorist organization T-FLAC reveals that
the Black Rose terror cell is involved – a chilling
revelation that elevates the threat level almost as high as
the tension that’s bristling between Max and Emily. Max
isn’t about to take his eyes off Emily – though only partly
for professional reasons – and even Emily’s rage over Max’s
take-charge attitude can’t compare to her anger at herself
for so long denying the truer, deeper feelings she has for
him. As they crisscross Europe, piecing together the
shocking clues to an insidious international plot, dodging
increasingly lethal traps, and passionately making up for
too much lost time, they realize that – in more ways than
one – they can’t live without each other. With no chance
of turning back, Max and Emily must put their lives on the
line, put their true feelings to the test... and get ready
to take the heat.
