When a stolen diamond, a deadly cartel, and a secretive mine collide, love might be the most explosive force of all.

Former FBI agent Stephanie Bohannan wanted nothing more than a quiet weekend at her family’s mountain “cabin”

and a fresh start as the new sheriff of a small Northern California county. Instead, a mysterious stranger in the dark, a firebomb on the porch, and a missing diamond bracelet pull her into a deadly game she thought she had left behind.

Hostage negotiator Max Parrish came to the cabin to escape his own failure and the death of a little boy he could not save,

only to find himself snowed in with a woman whose combat skills rival his own and whose past is more dangerous than she is willing to admit. When Stephanie’s dementia-stricken mother is kidnapped by ruthless jewel smugglers, Max and Stephanie must navigate snowbound roads, an abandoned mine, an underground bunker, and their growing attraction if they hope to rescue her and stop a cross-country diamond ring that has already killed once.

Jane S. Daly is the author of two nonfiction books and over 13 novels.

Jane is addicted to coffee, purple pens, and her husband, not necessarily in that order. A self-proclaimed introvert, she enjoys the solitude of riding shotgun in Rigsby, her 37-foot motor home. But when they pull into a new campground, her favorite thing is to make new friends and find hangouts featuring local musicians. Her fantasy involves writing lyrics for country music songs and hearing them played on the radio. In the meantime, she’ll stick to writing novels. And seeing as much of the country as possible.
