Dear Reader,
I’ve spent three books listening to Maximilien Redgrave’s siblings talk about him, drop snippets about him here and there for me to pick up on—for readers to pick up on. Now it’s time to see what all the fuss has been about.
He’s a handsome fellow, this Max Redgrave, not to mention cocky. Bright, outwardly confident, determined, daring. But he isn’t perfect. He’s been betrayed, had his heart badly broken and his trust in his own judgement shaken by one Zoé Charbonneau, the French beauty who made him the man he is today: deadly dangerous.
Now Zoé’s back, just as Max is up to his neck in intrigue. She’s got a score of her own to settle and doesn’t care if she’s in his way—not as long as he stays out of hers. Which isn’t as easy as it sounds, not when they can’t seem to keep their hands off each other, enemies or not.
All I have to do now is sit here at my computer and let Max lead me where he wants to go … everywhere a hero dares!
Please visit me online on Facebook or my website, www.kaseymichaels.com to catch up on all my news.

To Mike, with all my love.
In good times and bad these past fifty years,
you’ve always been there for me.
‘Lord, I wonder what fool it was that first invented kissing!’
