In her sophomore effort, Katherine D. Jones revisits characters from her debut novel Love Worth Fighting For. When a notorious Chilean drug cartel is apprehended, Kevin DePalma, after being placed in the witness protection program, begins his life anew as a nightclub owner in Memphis, Tennessee. Kevin will never forget that dreadful day or Maria Thomas, the very beautiful FBI agent who saved his life. While undercover as an illegal gun dealer, Maria walks into a nightclub and suddenly finds herself being kissed senseless by a total stranger. Once she recovers, she recognizes the man who could have just ruined her cover is Kevin. Maria had no idea she would ever lay eyes on him again or the fact that their attraction would be so strong. Facing the possibility of Maria's cover being blown, the assistant director comes up with a brilliant idea, that she and Kevin pretend to be lovers. Will this little charade become more than Kevin and Maria can bear? Ms. Jones has written yet another intriguing tale filled with murder, mayhem, espionage and suspense. Readers of her first novel who are wondering what happens when these two cross paths will not be disappointed. Although this novel stands alone, I would recommend reading the previous novel.

This is an absolutely wonderful book. I read Ms. Jones' previous novel, and I liked the story of Eric and Tangie, but it but the excitement was missing. Ms. Jones has a real hit with the story of Kevin(Alex) and Maria. I absolutely loved the book. The cover models did not match the description of the characters as was written in the book, but I loved the story. it was well written, sensual, and had a suspenseful plot with a great ending. I can't wait to read her next book about Rod and Helene!!!! I would highly recommend this book to anyone.
Wonderful Book!

Wow! What a great storyline! This book has everything--romance, action, tension, wonderful staging; and oh, did I mention romance? FBI Agent Maria Thomas is a beautiful and talented woman who is very much in-charge of her life and career, until she meets Kevin DePalma...again. Kevin is every woman's dream: strong, smart, financially secure, resolute, and determined to have the woman he loves. Sparks ignite and sizzle between them, leading to some of the most tender-hearted, romance-filled love scenes (set in rustic Solomon's Island, MD) that will just absolutely take your breath away! And make you wish for all the world that you were Maria Thomas! Well done, Ms. Jones, well done! I can't wait for Book 3!
