Allison had come to San Francisco to discover the truth about her past, instead, she found herself swept up in a firestorm of mystery and intrigue as she struggled to solve her father's last case and find his killer. She could trust no one certainly not Dalton Malone. The handsome Barbary Coast gambler claimed to have been Will McKendrick's friend, but his piercing blue eyes held more than a hint of danger, and the wild heat of his embrace threatened to sweep away all reason. Though she suspected his passion was designed to undermine her investigation, she still could not resist surrendering to his searing touch and the irresistible desires he awakened all through the sweet San Francisco nights!
