Heat on ice. A winter storm strands feisty heiress Reilly Shea and by-the-book-Deputy Hunt Ramsey in Reilly's Harmony Falls home. Attraction is instant, fierce and hot enough to melt the New England ice surrounding them. But Hunt is looking for a cop killer and Reilly is not only a sexy distraction, she might have information he needs. Can he get that information without alerting her to his real quarry? His strange questions convince Reilly that she may have a personal stake in his case...or that he's trying to get his hands on her inheritance.
From experience, Reilly believes that men want her only for her wealth. Hunt's past convinces him that love is a fairytale concocted by rich young women seeking escape from their boring lives. Neither intends to be used again.
But when the killer stalks the ice-bound community, danger drives them together. Desire keeps them there. Reilly's giving spirit and artistic lovemaking free Hunt from his jaded past, while his strength and protectiveness inspire Reilly's confidence in herself...and in him. Love eventually overcomes suspicion...leaving only the killer to stand in their way.
