A savvy businesswoman and an assassin struggle to outwit the FBI --
and each other -- in this #1 NYT bestselling story of sizzling
romance and shocking deception from "a masterful storyteller" (USA
Today).
When Jordie Bennet and Shaw Kinnard lock eyes across a disreputable
backwater bar, something sparks. Shaw is a man who gives off a dangerous
vibe that makes other men stand back and women take notice. No one feels
this more strongly than Jordie, a woman who doesn't belong in a seedy
dive on the banks of a bayou. But here she is . . . and Shaw Kinnard is
here to kill her.
As Shaw takes aim, Jordie is certain her time has come. Instead, Shaw
has other plans. He abducts Jordie, hoping to get his hands on the $30
million her brother has stolen. But he isn't the only one: Jordie's
brother made a deal with the FBI, but his ruthless boss will stop at
nothing to find the money first. Now on the run from the feds and a
notorious criminal, Jordie and Shaw must rely on their wits to stay
alive.
Miles away from civilization and surrounded by swampland, Jordie and
Shaw play each other against their common enemies. Jordie's only chance
of survival is to outwit Shaw, but he suspects her from the start. Was
she in on her brother's scam, or is she an innocent pawn in this deadly
vendetta? And just how valuable is her life to Shaw, her remorseless and
manipulative captor? Burning for answers -- and for each other -- this
unlikely pair ultimately make a desperate move that could be their last.
With nonstop plot twists and the sizzling sexual tension that has made
Sandra Brown one of the world's most beloved authors, Sting will keep
you on the edge of your seat until its final pages.
