Rafe Tyler needs answers. Two years ago, his brother was lured into danger by Tara Hill’s bewitching beauty, and he disappeared. Rafe has to know what really happened, and he can only find out by being as ruthless as he believes Tara was.

It was supposed to be a great gig: a high-profile photo shoot in the Florida Everglades, with Ashley Dane modeling a set of famous emeralds. Instead, Ashley finds herself fleeing through the swamp after witnessing a murder. Writer Eric Hawk is also on the run—he’s being hunted by a man from his past. Ashley doesn’t completely trust Eric, but she has no one else to turn to…and she finds him irresistible. Unrelenting threats keep them on the move through the dangerous terrain, and although they come from different worlds, their deepening feelings for each other make them believe they might have a future together…if they make it out alive.
