Author Book List

From the New York Times–bestselling author of Dream Eyes and Copper Beach, a brand-new quintessential Jayne Ann Krentz romance.

It’s been thirteen years since Lucy Sheridan was in Summer
River. The last time she visited her aunt Sara there, as a
teenager, she’d been sent home suddenly after being dragged
out of a wild party—by the guy she had a crush on, just to
make it more embarrassing. Obviously Mason Fletcher—only a
few years older but somehow a lot more of a grown-up—was the
overprotective type who thought he had to come to her
rescue.

Now, returning after her aunt’s fatal car accident, Lucy is
learning there was more to the story than she realized at
the time. Mason had saved her from a very nasty crime that
night—and soon afterward, Tristan, the cold-blooded rich kid
who’d targeted her, disappeared mysteriously, his body never
found.

A lot has changed in thirteen years. Lucy now works for a
private investigation firm as a forensic genealogist, while
Mason has quit the police force to run a successful security
firm with his brother—though he still knows his way around a
wrench when he fills in at his uncle’s local hardware store.
Even Summer River has changed, from a sleepy farm town into
a trendy upscale spot in California’s wine country. But
Mason is still a protector at heart, a serious (and
seriously attractive) man. And when he and Lucy make a
shocking discovery inside Sara’s house, and some of
Tristan’s old friends start acting suspicious, Mason’s
quietly fierce instincts kick into gear. He saved Lucy once,
and he’ll save her again. But this time, she insists on
playing a role in her own rescue . . .
