Lone Rider is a dramatic and very sexy contemporary romance debut. When Tess Marsh drove her flashy convertible down a deserted Montana highway, she was glorying in the starry night and reveling in inspiration for the new jewelry designs she planned to call Sky Fire. Then car trouble brought her back to earth in a hurry. Stranded miles from nowhere, with her cell phone giving her a "no signal" message, the wealthy, talented Boston beauty tried to prepare herself for a cold, uncomfortable night in the wilderness. When Dallas Haynes rode up on his Harley, he looked strong, and sexy, and dangerous -- but she was tempted to accept the ride he was offering to the nearest town. Before she could speak, however, the roar of more motorcycles broke the mountain stillness. Soon she was
surrounded by a brutal gang of bikers whose ideas about what to do with Tess did not include
rescue. And Dallas's answer to her dilemma was not to set her free but to claim exclusive rights -- though doing so threatened a mission that had already cost more than he'd ever dreamed. Tess's reality spiraled into the realm of nightmare as she became a pawn in a frightening scheme, trapped in the stronghold of a criminal cartel involved in drugs, murder, and prostitution. And, through it all, her captor's irresistible charm and indomitable will were both her best protection and her greatest peril as he guided them both through a carefully constructed web of deceit, betrayal, and forbidden passion.(less
