Description from the publisher:
An unwilling captive. A dangerous
game. Will he help her escape?
Botanist Karen Williams is collecting samples for the U.S. Forest Service when she stumbles upon a murder in the woods. Kidnapped by an outlaw biker gang, she is forced to micropropagate marijuana for them. A man named Stoner is assigned to babysit her and when an undeniable attraction flares between Karen and Stoner, she decides to seduce him in an attempt to escape. But Stoner has his own agenda and he’s not about to let her derail his plans.
As Karen enters a criminal's world of illegal fighting, human trafficking, marijuana production, and murder, she soon discovers Stoner isn't what he seems. But who is this mysterious man who can be cold and intimidating one moment and then set her blood on fire with desire the next?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the fourth book in the
Unlikely Heroes series. It does stand
alone, but there is no doubt that there is another story that has happened featuring
Karen’s daughter, April. I was dying to
start reading it before I was even finished with this one.
One of my favorite things about this
book is that the hero and heroine are older, single people carrying all of the
baggage that is common with lives fully-lived.
They weren’t portrayed as frail and somehow still innocent people in
their late forties; instead, they are strong, intelligent, sexy, and
lusty. Their scars and their pasts do
define them and that is a wonderful thing!
The story reminds me that your past may not define your future,
but it most certainly colors your perception of the present.
I picked this book to read more or
less on the eenie-meenie-miney-mo method.
I’m truly glad that I did. When I
finished reading, I did immediately go to Amazon and pick up the first book in
the series (free). The bonus is that
this is April’s story!
