This wasn’t about the Phoenix or an assignment or surveillance
This was only about a woman whose hands clung to him as she trembled beneath him. A woman who whispered his name, even in the throes of her own fulfillment. A woman who matched him movement for movement until they climaxed together, clinging to one another like two lost souls.
Finally the sexual storm passed, leaving John again too drained to move. Only then did he realize that the dynamics of what he’d been sent here to do had been inevitably changed by what had just happened between them. Like it or not, Kelly Lockett was no longer just the sister of the man he had been sent to investigate.
Innocent bystander or in it up to her neck, she was also a woman to whom he had just made love. And he knew that would have an impact on every other decision he’d make during the course of this assignment.
Dear Harlequin Intrigue Reader,
The holidays are upon us! We have six dazzling stories of intrigue that will make terrific stocking stuffers—not to mention a well-deserved reward for getting all your shopping done early….
Take a breather from the party planning and unwrap Rita Herron’s latest offering, A Warrior’s Mission—the next exciting installment of COLORADO CONFIDENTIAL, featuring a hot-blooded Cheyenne secret agent! Also this month, watch for The Third Twin—the conclusion of Dani Sinclair’s HEARTSKEEP trilogy that features an identical triplet heiress marked for murder who seeks refuge in the arms of a rugged lawman.
The joyride continues with Under Surveillance by highly acclaimed author Gayle Wilson. This second book in the PHOENIX BROTHERHOOD series has an undercover agent discovering that his simple surveillance job of a beautiful woman-in-jeopardy is filled with complications. Be there from the start when B.J. Daniels launches her brand-new miniseries, CASCADES CONCEALED, about a close-knit northwest community that’s visited by evil. Don’t miss the first unforgettable title, Mountain Sheriff.
As a special gift-wrapped treat, three terrific stories in one volume. Look for Boys in Blue by reader favorites Rebecca York, Ann Voss Peterson and Patricia Rosemoor about three long-lost New Orleans cop brothers who unite to reel in a killer. And rounding off a month of nonstop thrills and chills, a pregnant woman and her wrongly incarcerated husband must set aside their stormy past to bring the real culprit to justice in For the Sake of Their Baby by Alice Sharpe.
Best wishes to all of our loyal readers for a joyous holiday season!

CAST OF CHARACTERS
Kelly Lockett—She had inherited the charitable foundation her dead brother had founded. The only trouble was she had inherited his enemies, as well.
John Edmonds—A former NSA agent, the Phoenix newcomer had wanted a real case, something he could get his teeth into. He hadn’t been prepared for the high society lady who went with it.
Griff Cabot—Griff never expected the minor assignment he’d given the one Phoenix agent he doubted to rock the foundations of Washington and possibly the country.
Catherine Suttle—The ultimate Beltway insider, Catherine knew everybody in D.C. who mattered. Did she hold the key that would unravel the mystery of the secret organization known as The Covenant?
Bertha Reynolds—She had warned Chad Lockett that the charitable foundation he’d built was in trouble, but he hadn’t seemed interested. Had that misjudgment cost him his life?
Mark Daniels—Cast into the role of big brother by Chad’s death, Mark wanted a very different relationship with Kelly. How far was he willing to go to arrange that?
Hugh Donaldson—No one knew more about the dealings of the Legacy than its chief financial officer. The real question was what else he might know.
Leon Clements—The black sheep of a prominent Maryland family, Leon nursed a deep-seated bitterness that might have driven him to desperate measures.
Trevor Holcomb—He had been responsible for the failed security arrangements on the night of the Legacy Auction. Poor planning, or an attempt to carry out a secret agenda?
For Mollie, my son’s wife and the daughter of my heart.
