BOOK DESCRIPTION:
Lovely Maggie Barton and hardbitten Cord Romero share a
tangled and complicated past. While still a young girl, Maggie fell deeply
in love with Cord, but he's become a hard, cynical man who no longer
believes in the emotion. When Cord is nearly killed in an assassination
attempt, Maggie returns to Texas to care for him, but he spurns her offer of
help. It isn't long, however, before their lives are once again inextricably
bound as they join forces to bring down a crime cartel that exploits young
children. Maggie is a woman with deep secrets, and Cord is a man with a
badly scarred heart. Is there any hope that these two wounded people will
find a way to heal each other? Perhaps, but first they must survive the
threat to their lives as they race across Tangiers and through Amsterdam in
a desperate gamble to bring justice to an evil crime lord.
A gripping story is sabotaged by leaden writing in this hardcover debut from
bestselling author Palmer (The Texas Ranger; Lord of the Desert). Mercenary
Cord Romero returns to his Texas ranch after barely avoiding being blown up
by a bomb planted by his arch-enemy, Raoul Gruber, only to find his
beautiful and long-estranged foster sister, Maggie Barton, at his door.
Disturbed by his desire for Maggie, Cord lashes out at her. Heartbroken by
Cord's hostility, and jobless she left the perfect job in Morocco to rush to
Cord's side Maggie takes a job in Houston doing the books at a detective
agency. She quickly finds herself tangled up in a mission to bring down
Gruber and his international ring of child labor exploitation baddies and
when Gruber discovers her connection to Cord, she becomes his next target.
Maggie and Cord flee overseas to catch Gruber, traveling from Houston to
Spain and Morocco and back again to lure him into their trap. Believable
sexual tension sizzles between Maggie and Cord as they struggle with their
haunted pasts and crippling secrets in order to find the strength to trust
each other.
