Publisher Description

Money certainly changes Jenner Redwine’s life when she wins a lottery jackpot. But it also costs her plenty: Her father rips her off and disappears, her fortune-hunting boyfriend soon becomes her ex, and friends-turned-freeloaders give her the cold shoulder when she stops paying for everything. Flush with new money, Jenner can’t imagine ever finding a place in the world of the wealthy. Seven years later, though, she’s rubbing elbows with the rich, despite the fact she still feels like a party crasher. Luckily she finds an ally – and a guide to the rarefied realm of privilege – in shy, kind-hearted heiress Sydney Hazlett, who quickly becomes Jenner’s confidante and surrogate sister. When Sydney invites Jenner on a charity cruise aboard a luxury liner, Jenner reluctantly agrees. But while she’s expecting – and dreading – two weeks of masquerade balls, art auctions, and preening glitterati, what she gets is more like a Hitchcock movie than a Love Boat episode. Taken hostage by a menacing stranger, Jenner must cooperate in a mysterious cloak-and-dagger scheme – or else. With nowhere to run, and with Sydney’s life as well as her own at risk, Jenner is drawn into a game of dizzying intrigue and harrowing danger. But as her panic gives way to exhilaration, and fear of her captor turns to fascination, Jenner rediscovers feelings she hasn’t had in years – and realizes she’s found a life worth living. If she survives.

"I really enjoyed this book. It was more suspense than romance which is probably one reason I enjoyed it so much. After finishing it, I'm hoping Linda Howard does recurring characters. I believe this is my first Howard book. I want to hear more from these characters, especially Jenner and Cael..."

    " I have never laughed so hard at a romantic suspense book. The two main characters hurl insults at each other faster than the speed of light, but somehow manage to respect each other and fall in love at the same time. Great story, good mystery. "

    " I liked the hilarious interactions between the main characters but the thriller plot was predictable and the ending anti-climactic. I actually enjoyed the first part of the story about her life when she wins the lottery more than the main plot. "

    " I did a lot of skimming through this book. Sometimes she went into the most boring of details about these people's lives. It has some entertaining moments but not enough to make me want to recommend it to anyone else. I don't know what happened to Linda? It makes me wonder if she took some bad advice along the way of her career. I don't understand how the same woman who wrote "Shades of Twilight", "After The Night", "Mr. Perfect", and her other beloved older books can write the stuff she has written in the last few years. LINDA COME BACK! "

    " Linda Howard books used to be must-reads for me...but the last 10 or so have been hit-or-miss...we'll see how this one goes...... Now that I am finished. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. Not as good as "Open Season" and "Pleasing to Die"....but I truly enjoyed it. "
