Vivid, likable Maggie Larkin has almost lived down her wild youth and become a respectable member of her community, the small town of Barringer’s Pass, Colo. When Rafael De Luca, a handsome, wealthy, and spoiled reality television star, starts molesting Maggie at a club, she hits him, hard, and is rescued from his bodyguard by Cal Drummond, a vacationing cop with a grudge: Cal’s sister, Julie, was murdered while dating Rafe, and he believes the star may be the killer. Soon Maggie and her “mystery man” are in tabloids everywhere, and the powerful De Luca family is threatening her reputation and business. Together, Cal and Maggie scheme to take down their mutual enemy, and fall in love along the way. Ambrose (Thieves Like Us) smartly builds an organic, believable romance around the strong and genuinely suspenseful thriller plot. (Dec.)
