Publisher's summary

RITA Award Winner, Best Contemporary Single Title, 2000

When Alessandra Lamont is nearly blown to pieces in a mafia hit, the last thing she wants is to place her trust into the hands of sexy, loose-cannon federal agent Harry O'Dell, who'll do whatever it takes to bring the mob down - even if it means sticking like glue to this blonde bombshell who unwittingly married into it.

She needs him if she wants to stay alive, and he needs her if he is to exact his revenge for the death of his wife and son. But staying alive is nothing next to the explosive attraction that threatens to consume them both - and places them into the greatest danger of all...falling in love.

Brockmann at her best!

Suzanne Brockmann was my favorite writer through many books, but then I thought she lost some stream and I moved on. I chose this because I had to choose a second book from a small set. Once I started on it I couldn't leave it alone until it was finished. I love the characters and the storylines were interesting and unpredictable until the last page.

Couldn’t stop listening

This was a wonderful audiobook. It sucked me right in and I couldn’t stop listening. There were a lot of tense moments and I just knew there would be no way out alive. I liked the romance part and I’m curious as to whether George will pursue Kim after this. The only thing I didn’t like was toward the end, there was just so much usage of GD . I can handle just about any language except that, especially when a kid says it. I understand why he did at first, but the next time I cringed.

The narrator was excellent. Really knew how to bring a book to life.

Well done!

Suzanne Brockman is one of my favorite authors and this book is an example of why. The pictures she paints with her words light up the characters into believable people who I loved and hated. This book scared me to death, made me cry and filled my heart. The narrater did a wonderful job. I just didn't want it to end!

Well written and a great ending. As always a Brockmann book is worth reading. Worth the money.

Good story but dragged out

The story was good, however, it was dragged out. Also the sound quality varied and then randomly when there was 1 hour and 15 minutes left in the book, a voice announced “disc 8”. I believe it was an editing error

Oldie but Goodie! Surprisingly good book.

This is my first Suzanne Brockmann book. I started it without much expectation, but Brockmann is an author of true skill, with an unique style that I enjoyed more than I expected. I have gotten sick of stories with exaggerated drama and murder plots. However, this was a very good suspense novel with many characters that were interesting. It wasn't forced.
Recommended especially for fans of Linda Howard ,Sandra Brown and JD Robb.

Good performance, but predictable

I started with a blonde bombshell, who acted dumb. I finished with a better perception, but not by much. Story was predictable. Harry was just as stupid as Ali
