As she fled to safety in the dark of the Mexican night, Verity Ames could not see the man who had saved her from attack... but he was determined to see her again.

All Verify knew was that his lips burned hers, awakening a passion far beyond her fantasies... and that soon, she and Jonas would have to face the secret fury that threatened their love.
