and that Emily s life is now in danger. Like it or not, to stay alive, Emily must put herself in Max s hands. And once upon a time, that wasn t such a bad place to be.

But what killer would target professional restorers of Renaissance artworks? Max suspects that a pencil sketch found in his father s studio, inscribed with a cryptic code, may hold the key. His hunch is confirmed when intel from his control at the counterterrorist organization T FLAC reveals that the Black Rose terror cell is involved a chilling revelation that elevates the threat level almost as high as the tension that s bristling between Max and Emily. Max isn t about to take his eyes off Emily though only partly for professional reasons and even Emily s rage over Max s take charge attitude can t compare to her anger at herself for so long denying the truer, deeper feelings she has for him. As they crisscross Europe, piecing together the shocking clues to an insidious international plot, dodging increasingly lethal traps, and passionately making up for too much lost time, they realize that in more ways than one they can t live without each other. With no chance of turning back, Max and Emily must put their lives on the line, put their true feelings to the test…
and get ready to take the heat.
