Where Secrets Smolder...
Calm.
Cool. Collected. Gisele Whitby has perfected the art of illusion—her survival,
after all, has depended upon it. Years ago, to escape an abusive husband,
Gisele "disappeared." Now she must risk revealing her new identity to
save another innocent girl from the same fate. But she needs a daring man for
her scheme, and the rogue in question shows a remarkable talent . . . for
shattering Gisele's carefully constructed façade and igniting her deepest
desires.
...Passion Ignites.
This
isn't the first time Jamie Montcrief has awakened naked and confused from a
night of drinking. It is, however, the first time a stunningly beautiful woman
offers him payment afterward. Gisele has a business proposition for him, a
mission involving cunning thievery and a brazen rescue. How can he say no to a plot
this dangerous . . . and a woman this delectable?

Kelly Bowen grew up in Manitoba,
Canada. She worked her way through her teenage years as a back country trail
guide and ranch hand. She attended the University of Manitoba and earned a
Master of Science degree in veterinary physiology and endocrinology.
But it was Kelly's infatuation with
history and a weakness for a good love story that led her down the path of
historical romance. When she is not writing, she seizes every opportunity to
explore ruins and battlefields.
Currently, Kelly lives in Winnipeg with
her husband and two boys, all of whom are wonderfully patient with the writing
process. Except, that is, when they need a goalie for street hockey.

Excerpt
Well,
shit. He deserved that. “Who
are you?”
She
smiled at him, the first genuine smile he had seen, and it did strange things
to his chest.
“I am… just
Gisele.”
That was
helpful. He knew nothing more about her
than he knew last night. Annoyance
bubbled up again. “Very well then Just-Gisele,
since you won’t tell me anything useful about yourself, would you be so kind as
to enlighten me as to what it is you’d like me to do should I accept your
generous offer of employment?”
Her
smile turned brittle. “Not yet.”
“Not
yet?” Jamie’s eyebrows shot up to his
hairline. “How the hell am I supposed to
make a decision based on not yet?”
The ice
queen shrugged. “You’ll have to trust
me.”
Jamie
closed his eyes, fighting for patience.
“Will I need to steal something?”
“Unlikely.”
“Kill
someone?”
“Hopefully
not.”
“Blow
something up?”
“You’re
familiar with explosives?”
His eyes
popped open at the undisguised interest in her last question. What the hell kind of woman used the word explosives the way most used the word marmalade? Or
teapot?
