Award-winning author Cherry Adair broke thrilling new ground with On Thin Ice–her stunning romantic suspense hardcover debut. Now Cherry’s turning up the temperature, amping up the action, and raising the degree of danger and desire to irresistibly hot new heights.

Diamonds–jewels of every kind, in fact–are Taylor Kincaid’s best friends. The only thing she enjoys more is the challenge of stealing them, at which she excels like few others in the world. And specializing in plundering precious stones from wealthy international criminals just makes it all the more satisfying . . . and dangerously exciting. So for Taylor, there’s no resisting the double allure of snatching the elusive Blue Star diamonds–a prize she has pursued across three continents–from the South American stronghold of the murderous Morales terrorist organization.
The heist goes down without a hitch. Until Taylor discovers she has made off with more than she bargained for, namely the secret security-system codes that provide access to a South African diamond mine–packed with enough gems to sink a battleship. Suddenly, Taylor’s no longer just an ultrachic freelance jewel thief, but a reluctant player in a high-stakes cat-and-mouse game against elite global trouble-shooters and bloodthirsty terrorists.
There’s nothing reluctant, however, about Huntington St. John, the top T-FLAC operative who’s hot on Taylor’s trail. And in Taylor’s opinion, just plain hot. The feeling, emotional and otherwise, is very mutual. Though they’re on opposite sides of the law, Hunt and Taylor swiftly come to appreciate each other’s well-honed skills. But since ecstasy is fleeting, and diamonds are forever, Taylor soon slips from the sheets and hits the streets . . . to reclaim the jewels she stashed overseas. And true to his name, Hunt is close behind–but this time, he’s after more than the codes. With the clock ticking, and two groups of terrorists closing fast, they’ll have to mix pleasure with some very risky business. If they can survive danger at every turn, outwit the ultimate high-tech security system, and somehow conquer each other . . . they just might get everything they desire.

      Huntington "Hunt" St. John needs a thief. Preferably a resourceful, cunning, totally unscrupulous thief capable of breaking into religious-zealot and terrorist Jose Morales' San Cristobel home and stealing a set of computer disks. Hunt, an operative with the privately funded, freelance antiterrorist organization T-FLAC, quickly discovers that jewel-thief Taylor Kincaid is the woman he wants, but before he can secure her services, Taylor does the job on her own. But after she is arrested mere hours later by the San Cristobel police, Hunt sees an opportunity for a deal. Taylor pretends she has no idea what Hunt is talking about until an encounter with a group of lethal terrorists out for the same disks convinces her that she'd be better off trusting the enigmatic and sexy Hunt. Adair continues her wonderfully addictive series featuring the sexy men of T-FLAC with this fast-paced and intricately plotted tale of danger, deception, and desire that is perfect for readers who like their romantic suspense adrenaline-rich and sizzlingly sexy.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2005, American Library Association.)
