Publisher's Synopsis
A cold-blooded killer wants her dead.
After her friend is murdered right before her eyes, Taylor uses her wits to escape with just a bullet wound, thankful to be alive. But now the killer isn't the only one after her-the cops are, too, and Taylor's not sure she can trust them-or anybody else in her life in California. She decides to turn to her old friend in Vegas, racing there with just the clothes on her back, only to arrive and realize he's off on his honeymoon. Desperate, she breaks in and crashes.
A former Marine is determined to protect her.
When former Marine Roman MacNeil finds a gorgeous stranger unconscious and bleeding in his friend's shower, his first thought is to help her . . . until she tries to knock him out with a vodka bottle. Lucky for Taylor, Roman isn't a man who goes down easily. When he realizes the trouble she's in, he's determined to protect her-whatever it takes. As they're thrust into a deadly situation they discover an attraction they never bargained for. But a determined killer is closing in, and time may be running out.
