As the pampered daughter of one of Spring Creek's most
prestigious southern families, Ella Porter has lived her
entire lifeon the straight-and-narrow. And being "good"
has kept Ella safe and sane—until now. Suggestive yet
ominious letters have been arriving at her office with
alarming frequency. Letters that remind herof the
disturbing ones she used to get from Reed Conway—the
hellraiser she knew from childhood—after her father
prosecuted him for murder. Now Reed's been released
fromprison, and though Ella finds herself wanting to
believe his claims of innocence, she's getting closer than
a "good girl" ever should to a man with such a bad
reputation...
Reed Conway is on a mission: to find out who really
murdered his stepfather. But someone wants to interfere—
someone determined to send Reed right back to prison for a
brand-new crime. They've made it look like he's still a
threat to Ella Porter and her family, when the truth is,
the more he sees Ella, the more desperately he wants her.
But his attempts to prove his innocence have put both
their lives in heopardy...because whoever is stalking Ella
will stop at nothing—including murder...
