Acclaimed romance author Donna Kauffman delivers a sweet and sultry tale of a thunderous passion that’s ignited in the midst of a deadly storm. Hired by a concerned family member, Reese Braedon has come to the steamy Caracoles Key on the Gulf of Mexico to rescue a tempestuous loner from an oncoming hurricane. Never one to fear getting wet, Reese will do anything to make sure that he gets his target out safely—even if it means carrying her on his shoulders. But when the storm leaves him trapped in the home of a wild, sensuous beauty, Reese finds that he just might be in over his head. Resenting the fact that her would-be hero was sent by her estranged mother, Jillian Bonner takes an instant dislike to Reese. She’s resolved to ride out the storm—alone. But Jillian is unprepared for the sparks that flash between them as the hurricane rages outside. And when the ordeal takes a turn for the worse, Jillian decides to take a risk and trust—for once—the desire that burns inside of her.
