In a Golden Web — Courtney Henke

Her Rugged, Reckless Partner in Crime...
It was all Dexter Wolffe's fault, bank manager Elizabeth Hammer insisted -- his computer security system had gotten her framed for embezzlement, and her alibi had disappeared! Somehow she had to elude the media, escape the bank, and find her missing witness -- even if it meant kidnapping Dex and forcing him to take her to Phoenix! She'd never learned to let anyone help her, but Dex believed in her innocence and couldn't resist a challenge, especially when the lady who dared him to solve her mysteries was such a delectable adversary! He wanted to shatter her defenses, to kiss that defiant mouth and never let her go. Elizabeth vowed she was no damsel in distress needing to be rescued, but once she'd been ensnared by pleasure in the arms of her reluctant hero, she had to surrender. Dex believed in trusting his instincts, while she'd always followed a plan, but could a couple of loners on the lam write their own happy ending?
