Product Description

The killer she can't escape . . .


The heartbreak she can't forget . . .


The one man who can stop them both.

When Samantha Fairchild witnesses a murder in the wine cellar of the restaurant where she works, the Harvard-bound law student becomes the next target of a professional assassin. Desperate for protection the authorities won't provide, Sam seeks help from Vivi Angelino, an investigative reporter who recruits her brother, Zach, to protect Samantha.

My Review:
 
Storyline:  Samantha Fairchild is a part-time night waitress at a upscale restaurant Paupiette situated in Boston and future Havard Law student who witnesses a murder one night in the basement of the restaurant.  She has become a #1 target for the assassin and an organization when they find out she is on camera which they took before leaving the room.

She is tired of being afraid and alone so she decides to call her friend and reporter Vivi Angelino to help her.  When she goes over to Vivi's apartment she runs into her former lover and Vivi's twin  Zaccaria Angelino.

Characters:  Sam is such a fiesty and fiery heroine and Zach is such a hot and spicy Italian.

Romance:  Sam and Zach shared a steamy three day sex-filled days before Zach was shipped off to Iraq.  He never called or even wrote a postcard so Sam hates but still loves him.  I can understand why she wouldn't trust him anymore!

Zach hasn't forgotten his steamy time with Sam but he isn't the same guy as before.  He nearly died and lost his eye from a close call with a mortar shell.  He wears a patch and has a disfiguring scar on his face.  He doesn't want to take the job but he doesn't trust anyone else to keep Sam alive!

Killer(s):  The main killer didn't have any remorse or had any trouble killing anyone that got in his way!  Wait until you find out who he is!

4/5
