Susan Mallery returns us to Fool's Gold, California with
Maya Farlow and Del Mitchell's story. Del grew up in Fool's
Gold, but Maya only lived here a short while when her mom
was married to a local resident. We were first introduced
to Maya in KISS ME and made aware of the family dynamics
that brought her to Fool's Gold. Ten years ago, Maya and Del
were a couple, very much in love and talking about
marriage. But she got scared, lied to Del, and left town.
Now they are working together on a project that Mayor
Marsha has contrived. Can they recapture what they once
had? Can Del trust Maya again to be completely truthful
with him?
THRILL ME is another charming story about life in Fool's
Gold. Ms. Mallery masterfully weaves new characters into
the fabric of Fool's Gold, but always catches us up on the
lives of its very unique residents. Fool's Gold has a
certain rhythm that makes it a warm, homey place with a
little bit of magic. THRILL ME is about coming home to
family and having someone to really care about everything
that happens in your life. It's also a story about secrets
and running away from the reality that is life. Del and
Maya are both very strong characters who have both grown up
in the ten years they've been separated, but they haven't
necessarily grown apart.
Ms. Mallery gives us another heart-warming story that takes a much unexpected
twist en route
to a delightful ending. THRILL ME is book number eighteen
in this series, and still going strong.
Meet the Mitchell brothers of Fool's Gold, California—
five
gorgeous men who've left a trail of broken hearts in
their wake.
Maya Farlow learned the hard way to depend only on
herself,
so when she fell too deeply for the bad-boy charms of Del
Mitchell, she did the only thing she could—she ran.
Stunned,
Del left Fool's Gold to make his name and fortune in
extreme
sports.
Now ten years later, Maya's been hired to promote her
hometown's new slogan, The Destination for Romance. The
celebrity spokesman is none other than Del, the man she
dumped but never forgot. Awkward!
Although Del's not the type to hold a grudge, he's
determined to avoid falling a second time for the woman
who
broke his heart. He's a daredevil, not an idiot. Trouble
is,
in all his adventures, he never found a rush as
exhilarating
as Maya's kiss. Maybe risking his heart will prove to be
the
biggest thrill of all.
