DESCRIPTION

341 pages. Light rubbing and bumping to dust jacket. Dust Jacket un-clipped. Award-winning author Cherry Adair broke thrilling new ground with On Thin Iceûher stunning romantic suspense hardcover debut. Now CherryÆs turning up the temperature, amping up the action, and raising the degree of danger and desire to irresistibly hot new heights. Diamondsûjewels of every kind, in factûare Taylor KincaidÆs best friends. The only thing she enjoys more is the challenge of stealing them, at which she excels like few others in the world. And specializing in plundering precious stones from wealthy international criminals just makes it all the more satisfying . . . and dangerously exciting. So for Taylor, thereÆs no resisting the double allure of snatching the elusive Blue Star diamondsûa prize she has pursued across three continentsûfrom the South American stronghold of the murderous Morales terrorist organization. The heist goes down without a hitch. Until Taylor discovers she has made off with more than she bargained for, namely the secret security-system codes that provide access to a South African diamond mineûpacked with enough gems to sink a battleship. Suddenly, TaylorÆs no longer just an ultrachic freelance jewel thief, but a reluctant player in a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game against elite global trouble-shooters and bloodthirsty terrorists. ThereÆs nothing reluctant, however, about Huntington St. John, the top T-FLAC operative whoÆs hot on TaylorÆs trail. And in TaylorÆs opinion, just plain hot. The feeling, emotional and otherwise, is very mutual. Though theyÆre on opposite sides of the law, Hunt and Taylor swiftly come to appreciate each otherÆs well-honed skills. But since ecstasy is fleeting, and diamonds are forever, Taylor soon slips from the sheets and hits the streets . . . to reclaim the jewels she stashed overseas. And true to his name, Hunt is close behindûbut this time, heÆs after more than the codes. With the clock ticking, and two groups of terrorists closing fast, theyÆll have to mix pleasure with some very risky business. If they can survive danger at every turn, outwit the ultimate high-tech security system, and somehow conquer each other . . . they just might get everything they desire. Quantity Available: 1.
