Susan Kitteridge was a beguiling witch, a seductress who could make a man betray his honor -- and Remy St. Jacques vowed to stop her! She never felt his fierce gaze as he followed her -- Susan was too devastated by the scandal she'd fled Washington to avoid, too lost in her own sad thoughts to sense Remy's presence... until the moment their eyes met, and her body burned for the fire his lips promised. Captured by a glance from this bayou outlaw who had secrets of his own, Susan longed to confess her desperation, share her terrible discovery -- but there was no one to trust, no one to understand the life of lies she'd lived for so long. Remy had been ordered to shadow a traitor, but the woman whose mouth drove him to sweet obsession could not be what she seemed. Susan dared not expose those she loved to danger, but Remy wouldn't let her run alone. Could they elude their pursuers long enough to find a lovers' sanctuary?
