When legendary antiterrorist agent Vanessa Wade was assigned to impersonate the glamorous fiancee of international businessman Nick Markos, she reluctantly found herself on one last undercover mission. But Nick wasn't just another assignment. He was the brother of a traitor--and a tempting, complex man from Vanessa's past. A man whose kisses made her emotions spin out of control...
Struggling to remain detached when indifference went against her nature, Vanessa vowed to remain professional. Surely her awareness of Nick as a very attractive, sexy man was a complication she could avoid acting on. But could she ignore the other complication her intuition nagged her about--the troubled soul that lurked beneath his strong facade?
I wanted to write as soon as I learned to read. I dabbled with stories and poems for years, but didn't start writing seriously until many years later. My favorite books have always been mysteries and romances, so the mix in romantic suspense was a natural. I love writing romantic suspense because it throws the hero and heroine together under extraordinary circumstances and pits them against a clever villain. My books have been both a Romantic Times Magazine Reviewer’s Choice Nominee and a finalist for the Daphne du Maurier Award. Reviewers have called my books fast-paced, thrilling, action-packed, sizzling, and highly emotional. I have also published two children's picture storybooks, Sleigh Magic and Stowaways: a Maine Pirate Tale. I am a West Virginia native but I have lived for many years on the coast of Maine.
