Icebound

When Bastien Toussaint vanishes, his wife Chloe knows only one thing: Something very bad must have happened to keep him away from her. She’s determined to find him, and she does, in the catacombs of Paris. There’s only one problem. He insists he doesn’t know her, which would be bad enough, but he’s decided to hold her as a hostage. Nothing she can say or do will get him to recognize her, and he’s become like the Bastien she first knew—dangerous and deadly–but she’s afraid if she escapes, she’ll never see him again.

Jean-Marc has no idea who the woman is who foolishly insists he’s her husband. His current mission is too important to jeopardize, but he needs to find out who and what she is before he can either let her go or dispose of her.

As he drags her through the French countryside, the shores of Lake Como, and the arid Spanish desert, Bastien finds himself inexplicably drawn to her. He can’t afford any distractions, but he can’t let her go either. He has a Nobel Peace Prize winner to get rid of, and Chloe provides him with much needed cover. When the job is done he can let her go and forget all about her.

Can’t he?

From the catacombs of Paris to the busy streets of London, Icebound revisits Chloe and Bastien from Black Ice, once more enmeshed in danger and murder in this sizzling tale of suspense and romance.

Risk the Night

Reporter Maddy Banks doesn’t realize what she’s getting into when she makes arrangements to have an anonymous interview with an assassin. Her life in Paris was safe, with a devoted if slightly smug boyfriend and a career that was slowly taking off. When she first meets the man calling himself Constantine she can’t see him and his voice is disguised. Even so, she feels a distinct, erotic pull that horrifies her.

Con has no use for relationships, particularly with a reporter. But he can’t get Maddy Banks out of his mind, and when he runs into her later that evening he can’t resist playing with fire. Neither of them had any idea how brightly it would burn.

Seen and Not Heard

Claire McIntyre tried to ignore the murders—the headlines of women stabbed to death, the city’s mounting fear. She tried to forget, too, the painful past she’d left behind in Massachusetts…and concentrate on her entrancing new life with Marc Bonnard.

He was a man of wealth and sophistication, who wrapped her in a spell of erotic desire. Alone with Marc and his small daughter in his classic, elegant apartment, Claire could almost forget her loneliness…could almost believe that she loved him… But as the brutal deaths continued, Claire discovered a terrifying secret, a nightmare that became her own.

Trapped in a sinister web of ancient vows and grisly revenge, she fled into the proud, indifferent city, searching for help, for a safe escape. Now, as rain falls softly down, she must outwit a killer whose mad cunning knows no bounds, a murderer who will find her, no matter where she hides…

Ruthless

Few outsiders will ever witness the dark misdeeds of the Heavenly Host. And among this secret society, where exiled Georgian aristocrats gather to indulge their carnal desires, fewer still can match the insatiable appetite of their chief provocateur, the mysterious Viscount Rohan. Pursuit of physical pleasure is both his preferred pastime and his most pressing urge, until he encounters the fascination of a woman who won’t be swayed. And while his dark seduction appalls the pure and impoverished Elinor Harriman, she finds herself intrigued…and secretly drawn to the man behind the desire.

Black Ice
