Her grief turns to shock and then to rage when she learns that Connor had been working undercover for British Special Forces and that his death was no accident. While going through his effects Kellie discovers puzzling notes about an Irishman named Tom Whelan. She begins to ask questions, which are met first with condescension and then with silence. Armed with little more than her anger and her desire to exact justice and revenge, Kellie travels to a sleepy Irish town to track down Tom Whelan, the man she is convinced is responsible for her loss. Instead, she meets a man who is the antithesis of a killer. And the more she learns about him the more she falls under his spell, finally suspecting that Tom Whelan could be her ally--not her foe. But who, then, is responsible for the death of Connor Delaney? Who is tracking Kellie's every movement? Who wants her silenced?

by Iris JohansenLove and danger collide in a treacherous place called Deadman's Ridge in this spellbinding tale from Iris Johansen. Descended from a long line of risk takers, Matilda Delaney lives for the thrill of the chase. She has come to Deadman's Ridge to find the legendary Black Flame opal. But a different excitement ignites when Matilda meets award-winning filmmaker Roman Gallagher. The passion he awakens is more intense than anything on the big screen . . . and a lot more dangerous than the quest for a long-lost treasure. Roman has come to the violence-plagued mining town to make his latest blockbuster, not to lust after a reckless, cinnamon-haired beauty who wears trouble like a second skin. Past heartache has taught him not to trust the powerful feelings that Matilda arouses. But he's getting closer to the point of no return. As man's greed and one irresistible woman lead him down a treacherous road, Roman has to choose: Walk away while he still can . . . or risk it all for the chance to finally slay his demons--and embrace a love beyond price. Includes a special message from the editor, as well as excerpts from other Loveswept titles.

Then Callie makes another startling discovery: Her incubus is not the only mythical creature in Fairwick.
