When a reoccurring dream convinces Juliet that the fatal crash that killed her parents wasn't an accident after all, she decides it's not the right time to juggle a very personal investigation with an on-again, off-again romance, no matter how hot. Yet the closer she gets to the truth, the more protective Tristan becomes, ignoring the fact that she has given him his walking papers. With two messy pasts and their present filled with mortal peril, it's anyone's guess if these two alpha souls—both used to controlling their destinies—can strike a compromise and create a future together.

I've often remarked that writing books is like having babies. It takes about nine months—at least for me. And the questions are all the same. 1) Where did you get your inspiration? (Who's the father?) In this case, the hero of the story was inspired by former Navy SEAL Michael Jaco, author of The Intuitive Warrior, a book I highly recommend you read. 2) How hard was the book to write? (Was the pregnancy difficult?) Once, with a previous title, I wrote myself into such a corner that it took me four weeks to resolve the tangled plot. With this book, I only got stuck twice, so I'd say the pregnancy was easy. 3) Did you have any help? (Who attended the birth?) Just as it takes a village to raise a child, it likewise requires many hands and minds to write a single book. For this particular story, I owe profound thanks to my developmental editor, Wendie Grogan; my senior editor, Sydney J. Baily; and my beta readers—Graziella, Joyce, Penny, Suzanne, and Elizabeth. Ladies, my baby is beautiful, and I give you full credit. Thank you all so much!
