. .

Résumé :
Troy Linden is the kind of guy who would do anything for his best friend, Christine-and he did. Now the former forest ranger (The Ranger's Obsession) is on the run for murder. Troy, however, sees his misdeed as more of a favor to his friend the night he left her abusive fianc? to die tied to a tree during a snowstorm in the San Bernardino Mountains. Law enforcement sees the favor differently. Detective Stuart Bradley has been assigned to the case and is anxious for the dangerous man to be caught. But in order to get to Troy, he has to first get to Christine. It's treacherous territory he's wandering into when he develops an attraction to her. After all, Troy has already proven how far he will go to keep Christine safe and all to himself. Just ask the dead fianc?. Yet Bradley is hardly the gentleman he appears in his suit and tie. Underneath, he's well-armed and entirely capable of taking from Troy much more than his freedom. The cop's determination sets them up for the fight of a lifetime. And it isn't just smarts or brute force they must use. It's their will to kill....
