New York Times bestselling author Carla Neggers is at the top of her game with this gripping tale of action, drama and suspense.
Deputy U.S. Marshal Juliet Longstreet has made her share of enemies, and now one of them is out of prison and threatening to kill her. Her mission: find him first.
But hot on her suspect's trail is Special Forces officer Ethan Brooker, who has a way of dropping into Juliet's life without warning. Haunted by his wife's death, Ethan is a man Juliet knows she should avoid. And now he's focused on a related mission of his own and can't -- or won't -- give Juliet any details.
When she finds her doorman dead and her New York apartment ransacked, Juliet tracks down Ethan -- this time she wants answers. They agree to team up, and as they fight their growing attraction to each other, their race to stop a ruthless killer takes them north to Juliet's family in Vermont . . . and into the heart of a dangerous web of lies, greed, deceit -- and murder.

A US marshall that is being hunted down by a criminal just released from prison. Has romance, & suspense. Too much technical detail, but the suspenseful end was great.

Very good suspense and romance. I can't put her books down.

This is the first Carla Neggers novel I've read, and while the storyline was intriging I was put off by all the references to what I assumed must be another story by Neggers involving the same characters. They kept refering back to this one case they had worked on before and it detracted from this story. If a person hadn't read the other story, they were lost. One or two references wouldn't have been bad, but there were many and it got to be very tiresome. Maybe I'll see if I can find that other book and see what they were talking about...and then again maybe not.

This book left me wondering what was more thrilling? The romance or the suspense!
