Five Star
February 2011

Hot isn't a hot enough word to describe corporate raider Fletcher Wolf, but since he's suing couturier Cara Fletcher for, oh, a gazillion dollars, she figures she shouldn't hit on him…at least not too hard.

On top of that, she wonders if he's responsible for the harassment and vandalism that's plaguing her, irritants that escalate into crimes when her workshop is trashed to the tune of a hundred thousand dollars. The economic damage enables him to seize her company, bringing him into her life on a daily basis. When her Manhattan loft home is torched and her assistant murdered, Cara realizes that the man she wants is the only man who can keep her safe.

How far would you go to win your lifelong dream?

When Zoë Whipple agrees to film a documentary about a hockey team's season, she doesn't sign on for scandal, crime and murder. But she discovers that players rabid to win the championship don't let morality or the law stand in the way of their ambitions.

Digging into the mess reveals illegal painkillers and steroid abuse among most of the team. Zoë, whose reputation for honest filmmaking is at stake, threatens to expose the scandals.

Is her new lover, team captain "Crash" Crasseau, responsible for the harassment and vandalism meant to scare her into silence? When Crasseau's ex-wife is murdered, and Zoë's daughter is threatened, Zoë must choose between her career ambitions and her child's safety.

But now his ward has grown into a beautiful young woman. Though honor prevents Quinn from making Kate his, their attraction is irresistible... Will Kate tempt Quinn into abandoning honor? Will the wicked uncle trap Kate, compromise her and steal her fortune?
