Nikki Ashton is in the wrong place at the wrong time and
fleeing for her life comes face-to-face with a much needed
white knight. Though at first she was ready to CRY WOLF it
doesn't take long for her to realize he really was going to
help her. Never imagining just how much this man planned to
do for her.
Harper Beaumont is a wealthy businessman who enjoyed
playing the rescuer and is intrigued by the pert beauty
that was in distress and he wants more. After she
disappears he has enough information to find her again and
offer her the chance of a lifetime. Is he really offering
his heart? If so he is taking a chance hoping she can see
him as a man, a lover and not just as her hero.
CRY WOLF is the perfect book to curl up and let it take you
away. CRY WOLF is a Retro Romance reprint, originally
published in 1992 under the name Amanda Carpenter, but
while reading you will find it is definitely Thea
Harrison's work.
The character of Harper could have been
written today as a wealthy alpha and fit right in and Nikki
isn't the typical helpless damsel; she knows what she wants
and not want in life. Part of Nikki's problem is that
Harper is emotionally uncommunicative that leads him to not
say exactly what he means, though Nikki does manage to pull
things out of him. CRY WOLF holds the usual troublemaker
and misdirection caused by that person, and an adorable
adopted son as secondary characters. Little Charlie, of
course, adds to the tug to Nikki's heart strings. Anyone
who needs and enjoys a "rescue turns to love romance" CRY
WOLF
is the one you want to get you hands on.
Can a white knight change from protector to lover?
Fleeing for her life, Nikki Ashton rounds a corner and runs
into an unyielding wall of man. Injured and desperate for
rescue, she’s the very picture of a damsel in distress.
Businessman Harper Beaumont is more than willing to act as
her white knight—and after taking care of her he offers
Nikki the career chance of a lifetime.
But Nikki sees more in Harper than just her savior. She sees
a man she can fall in love with. But Harper needs a strong,
passionate woman at his side, and though Nikki knows she can
be that woman for him, he only views her as a girl in need
of protection…
