WHO WAS HE? This enigmatic stranger with the sexy smile wasn't what he seemed. The man who called himself Michael Dowd came into Francey Neeley's life under mysterious circumstances and soon had her heart fluttering and her blood pumping. For wherever Michael went, danger followed. She was his one weakness. Michael knew that alluring Francey could be his downfall - and he didn't even trust her. He was a secret agent trying to pry information from her about a terrorist group, a group that was trying to kill him - and her. As the danger escalated, Francey was swept into a world of death and deceit. Still, she couldn't stay away from him. Somehow Michael had won her heart - and she his. And that could be a deadly combination for them both.

When she’s not traveling, she’s at home in Northern Vermont with her luscious husband of thirty-six years, an empty nest, three cats, four sewing machines, and one Springer Spaniel, and when she’s not working she’s watching movies, listening to rock and roll (preferably Japanese) and spending far too much time quilting. Anne Stuart also writes as Kristina Douglas.
