Summer lightning—that described Jake Torey had fallen in love with him as a teenager, but he'd regarded her as a child. Singed by the experience she met and married another man. Now, seven years later, she'd returned to California as a widow and met Jake Brosnan again. He still had that same effect - slashing into her life like lightning, igniting passions she'd thought were dead. But was there any future in loving him? Was it love Jake wanted or just a good time with no commitments?

Anne McAllister has written nearly 70 romance novels for Tule Publishing and Harlequin Books. She has won two RITA awards from the Romance Writers of America—for COWBOY PRIDE and THE STARDUST COWBOY—and has had nine other books which were RITA finalists. Her books have also been finalists for the National Readers’ Choice Award. She was named Midwest Fiction Writers “Writer of the Year” and also received Romantic Times’ Career Achievement Award as “Series Author of the Year.” But while the awards and sales are wonderful, Anne thinks the best part of writing is telling the story. With every new book she writes, she meets new characters – or gets to know old ones even better – and discovers what makes them and their relationships tick. It’s the relationships that interest her most and the question about “where do you get your ideas?” has always astonished her as she has more ideas than she knows what to do with!
