Found with blood on her hands, ice princess Bethany St. Croix became the prime suspect in her ex-husband's murder. But her chilly silence didn't fool one man. P.I. Dylan St. Croix had once been seared by the passion that blazed beneath Bethany's cool facade. And though they'd parted bitterly before she'd married his cousin, he couldn't desert her now. Tragedy and silence had torn them apart. Yet after one dark, forbidden night of love, Bethany carried Dylan's baby. Nothing could douse the fire of possession that burned through Dylan, that made him want to lay claim to mother and child. But though he would risk his reputation to prove her innocence, would he risk his heart to win back her love?
Author
Best-selling author Jenna Mills grew up surrounded by the evocative plantation ruins, haunting swamps, and timeless legends of south Louisiana. She penned her first official work of fiction at the ripe old age of six, turning to suspense three years later with JACQUIE AND THE SWAMP. Since then her stories have grown in complexity, but her love for adventurous women and dangerous men has remained constant. Jenna is a member of Romance Writers of America, Dallas Area Romance Authors, and North Louisiana Storytellers. Prior to selling her first novel, she won numerous regional and national writing contests, one of which brought her in contact with the editor who purchased her work. When not writing stories brimming with deep emotion, steamy romance and page-turning suspense, Jenna enjoys spending time with her young daughter and her husband, as well as a house full of cats, dogs, and plants. Jenna credits her grandparents, Mr. & Mrs. Cloyd Allison and Mr. & Mrs. Milton Aucoin, for teaching her everything she knows about dreams that come true and love that lasts a lifetime.
