Love and danger collide as the cross-country romance series heads to Nevada--from the bestselling author with more than 300 million books in print. The crash of a Cessna 310 charter flight on a Nevada mountainside has left two survivors: Leah Talbot, a young secretary from Las Vegas, and the pilot, lone wolf Reilly Smith. Part Native American, all man, Reilly is impassive, mysterious, and inscrutable. Under the noonday sun, they make their way across a hostile stretch of Nevada desert. Under the cold night rain, they have only their bodies, locked in embrace, to keep them warm. As two desperate strangers come together, so does a desire that burns as hot as the sand. But Reilly's instincts are as strong as his survival skills. They may share a love that's helping to keep them alive, but he knows that once they reach civilization the bond between them will be severed with a last kiss goodbye. Unless Reilly can make Leah realize that she's saved him as much as he's saved her.
This book seemed to pick up where Ms. Sattler's 'Wild Cherries' left off. This book has Travis, an ex-CIA agent who ends up in an emergency room where nurse Randi is. Little does Travis know, but long ago Nurse Randi worked in a fertility clinic where Travis made a 'deposit', and now he has a son that he is shocked to discover. Randi is a virginal mother, extremely fearful of all men because of sexual abuse as a child, but Travis is patient and although at first he was more interesting in getting to know his son, his feelings for Randi grows and grows until he's fallen hook, line, and sinker. I also enjoyed Travis' downhome country attitude that's always polite to the ladies. Very affecting. It takes awhile for Randi to overcome her childhood memories, but the pay off is great. This book is not as romantic as 'Wild Cherries', but still very good. I would recommend it well. Cyndi
