The Hidden Years. Susan Kearney

Чтение книги онлайн.

      What would it be like to make love to a man like Jake?

      Even as an eighteen-year-old, Jake Cochran would have been gentle.

      A loud bang startled Cassidy and interrupted her thoughts. She sat up with a gasp, the blanket falling to the floor, her heart pumping wildly.

      Had someone banged on the door? Had someone found them? Had she seen the doorknob turn?

      Rushing to the window, she peered through the darkness toward the lake. She had just about convinced herself she’d dreamed the noise when the face of a man appeared, wild-eyed, two inches from the windowpane.

      Cassidy screamed and ran out into the hall. And encountered Jake.

      A very wet, very naked Jake.

      Dear Harlequin Intrigue Reader,

      We have another great selection of exciting Harlequin Intrigue titles for you this month, kicking off with the second book in Rebecca York’s 43 LIGHT STREET trilogy MINE TO KEEP. Never Alone is a very special story about the power of love and the lengths to which a man and woman will go to find each other—no matter the obstacles.

      One down—three to go! Our MONTANA CONFIDENTIAL series continues with Special Assignment: Baby by Debra Webb. A covert operation and a cuddly baby are just a day’s work for this sexy cowboy agent. And Caroline Burnes scorches the sheets in Midnight Burning, a story about one man’s curse and his quest for redemption.

      Finally, come play HIDE AND SEEK with Susan Kearney as she launches her new three-book miniseries with The Hidden Years.

      So pick up all four for a dynamic reading experience.
