Search - Midnight Jewels

Mercy Pennington liked to play it safe. Before she opened her cozy second-hand bookstore, she researched her prospects and minimized her risks. So she never should hav handled a rare edition of "Valley of Secret Jewels". And she should have locked the door of her shop before Croft Falconer walked in.

Falconer enjoyed violence, not literature-beautifully controlled violence of the Asian martial arts. And he looked fighting mad when he learned Mercy promised the "Valley of Secret Jewels" to another buyer. Flaconer argued with her, offering a small fortune, and then tender seduction. Mercy and Falconer lit sparks like the Fourth of July. But the real fireworks start when she discovered he ahd told her almost everything a woman falling in love wants to hear-everything except the secret behind the book of forbidden passion that could get them both killed/

Mercy Pennington owns a second-hand bookstore and has gotten her hands on a book that Croft Falconer would almost kill so have. So would someone else, literally. A good Krentz novel with humor and quick wittedness.

What happens when a lovely ex-librarian clashes with a handsome martial arts expert? Love, suspense and danger....
