Chloe Underwood is a children's book translator living in
Paris, the most exciting city in the world, but she's
bored. She wanted something more than going into the
medical field, which is what everyone in her family chose
for a career. Making her way to Paris, she never regretted
the roots she pulled, but she wants something more exciting
than trying a new French recipe.
When Chloe is offered the opportunity to do some
translating while staying at an isolated chateau, she goes,
especially since she can use the money and thinks maybe she
might meet someone exciting. Exciting is one way you might
describe the so-called business men, as it turns out she's
translating for a group of arms dealers. To top off this
crime, another explosive crime of passion happens and
sparks fly when she meets Bastien Toussaint.
Bastien saves Chloe's life, but danger is everywhere, and
both Chloe and Bastien are on the run. Chloe can't figure
out who the good guys are because Bastien is keeping them a
moving target. What she can't understand is the motive
behind his every move.
Passion, high stakes and seduction are the name of the
game. As deadly as a hand grenade in the wrong hands, but
as enticing as any Frenchman, BLACK ICE is sure to be on
the bestselling list. Anne Stuart has penned another award-
winning romance.
Living paycheck to paycheck in Paris, American book
translator Chloe Underwood would give anything for some
excitement and passion--even a little danger. So when she's
offered a lucrative weekend gig translating at a business
conference in a remote chateau, she jumps at the chance to
shake things up.
Then by chance Chloe discovers her employers are anything
but the entrepreneurs they appear, and suddenly she knows
far too much. Her clients are illegal arms dealers, and one
of them is ordered to kill her. BZut instead, Bastien
Toussaint drags Chloe away, and the next thing she knows
she's on the run with the most terrifying and seductive man
she's ever met. What were his motives -- and could she live
long enough to find out?
