He's handsome, hot, hunted and hurt... Nick Lamanto is an undercover detective who tracked the mastermind of a gun-running operation from Florida to Tennessee. He's out of his element, wounded, wanted by the local authorities and on the run when he hitches a ride with an unsuspecting angel of mercy. Keri Merritt is a trauma nurse in desperate need of a vacation. What she especially needs to escape is the haunting memory of her mother's death, the over-protective law enforcement men in her family and anyone who needs her nursing skills. Warning: If you have a weakness for dark-haired, dark-eyed law enforcement officers with strong protective instincts, prepare to lose your heart.
