Edge of Reckoning — Marianne Joyce

Was he the man of her dreams...or part of a nightmare from her past.

A Dangerous Passion.

Sara Holliday was determined to uncover the long buried secrets of her childhood. Twenty years ago her beautiful mother had suddenly disappeared in the wild canyons of their Pacific coast estate, never to be seen again. Now, a visit with Aunt Selena seemed a perfect opportunity to search for clues to her past.

What awaited Sara was a house full of hidden intrigues, simmering jealousies...and unexpected romance. Max Baron was the most breathtakingly handsome man she'd ever seen and the son of the man her mother was said to have loved. From the moment their eyes met there was a sparkle that spoke of a mysterious past and a promising future.

But somewhere in the secluded hills are hidden secrets of lost treasure and forbidding passion...and someone thinks Sara is getting too close to the truth. When she narrowly escapes death, Max is there to offer the comfort of his embrace. Yet even as she trembles with the desire that only his tender touch can evoke, she shudders with terror as cruel suspicions darken her dream of endless love.

Hero: Max Baron
Heroine: Sara Holliday
