Jessica and Jasmine Adams are identical twins in looks only. Jessica is neat and methodical, a Miami-area news anchor on the fast track to network stardom. Jasmine ("Jazz") is more comfortable behind the scenes than in the spotlight, trying to drum up work as a P.I. in San Francisco. At a mysterious invitation from Jessica, however, she flies across the country, hoping she can be the one to come to the rescue for a change. Upon her arrival, she finds her sister's apartment empty -- except for a surly intruder who attacks her and then claims he's Jessica's bodyguard.
Alex Romero, employee of an elite protection service called "Bullet Catchers," has been assigned what he considers a babysitting job as punishment for some questionable behavior on his last mission. Not that he's averse to keeping a close eye on the gorgeous woman in front of him...even after he discovers she's not the correct woman.
Jazz convinces Alex to let her pretend to be Jessica to find out what's been going on in her sister's life, and he reluctantly agrees, on the condition that he'll remain "Jessica's" bodyguard. As Jazz begins to live her sister's life, she finds that it was far from the perfect, storybook existence she'd imagined and starts to believe her sister could be in real danger. Alex and Jazz dig deeper, spending days and nights together, and find the sparks of tension between them turning into flames of passion. But can Alex protect Jazz from her stubborn determination to find Jessica, even at the risk of her own life?
This book blends a complex mystery with a relationship as steamy as a summer night in south Florida. Macho Alex and headstrong Jazz are perfect for each other, both of them hiding an inner vulnerability beneath a tough exterior. There's also a tantalizing peek at some of Alex's colleagues at Bullet Catchers, who'll be having their own adventures soon, since KILL ME TWICE launches a new series about this elite force of security specialists and bodyguards. Summer may be winding down, but this book will have you reaching for a fan!
