      He’d been sent to exotic Cascadilla Island to keep an eye out for Simon, the menacing mystery man SPEAR seemed on the brink of capturing. Finding a beautiful stranger on a sea-swept beach wasn’t part of his plans. But he made her his first priority when he learned she was the victim of a kidnapping….

      Jessica Burke

      A strawberry-blond beauty with big brown eyes

      Jessica didn’t know who her kidnappers were; she only knew that she’d never felt so safe as she did in the strong arms of Marcus Waters. So much so that she gave him her innocence in the heat of the night….

      “Simon”

      Still nameless, still faceless—and still just as deadly

      He was on his way to Cascadilla, not knowing what lay in wait for him. Could this trip to the Caribbean be Simon’s undoing?

      A note from talented writer Margaret Watson, author of over ten novels for Silhouette Books:

      Dear Reader,

      I hope you are enjoying Intimate Moments’ fabulous A YEAR OF LOVING DANGEROUSLY series as much as I am! I certainly had a wonderful time writing Marcus and Jessica’s story. Someone To Watch Over Her and all the books in the A YEAR OF LOVING DANGEROUSLY series bring you everything that Intimate Moments is famous for—adventure, danger, mystery and, of course, passionate romance. I’m waiting just as anxiously as all of you for each book in the series. I can’t wait to read every one of them!

      I’ve been reading Intimate Moments books since the line started almost twenty years ago, and they’ve always been my favorite romances. That’s probably why, when I decided to pursue my lifelong dream of writing, I wanted to write Intimate Moments. I still have to pinch myself to make sure I’m not dreaming when I see my name printed on an Intimate Moments cover, my book on the shelf next to all of my favorite romance authors.

      Writing romances is a big change from my other profession. I’m also a veterinarian, which is why you’ll find an animal or two in almost all of my books. A lot of people ask me how I could give up a wonderful career as a veterinarian to write books. My answer is that veterinary medicine is my job, but writing is my passion. And being a romantic through and through, I always follow my heart.

      Sincerely yours,

      Chapter 1

      Marcus Waters kicked at a shell on the sand and watched it somersault into the frothy blue waters of the Caribbean. It reminded him of his heart, he thought sourly, tumbled and tossed by his futile passion for Margarita Alfonsa de las Fuentes.

      Shoving his hands into his pockets as the shell disappeared into the sea, Marcus continued walking down the deserted beach. It was just as well, he told himself, that Margarita had chosen Carlos Caballero. He wasn’t interested in a long-term relationship. Hell, he wasn’t interested in any kind of a relationship, except for the ones that ended with a goodbye kiss in the morning.

      Sure, he’d been half in love with Margarita. But then, who wouldn’t have been? The sexy SPEAR agent was beautiful and bright and had stirred his hormones since the first time he’d met her, years ago, when they had both been starting out with the covert agency. Working with her again had reignited the spark that had lain dormant for so many years.

      It was better this way, Marcus told himself as he rounded another curve on the long, lonely beach. Margarita and Carlos belonged together. And he belonged by himself. He’d learned that years ago when he’d chosen his career with SPEAR rather than a woman he’d loved.

      He pulled the loneliness around him like a cloak, using it to harden his heart and seal it against any more painful blows. He had his job, and that was all СКАЧАТЬ
