Scenes of Passion

One of the earliest works from the New York Times–bestselling author—an enthralling story of danger and desire, first published in 2003.

Safe and steady pretty much sums up Maggie Stanton’s life. But a chance encounter stirs long-buried desires and urges her to do the unimaginable—take a risk. Shockingly, the man who convinces her to forsake predictability for passion is the full-grown version of her childhood best friend. Only, this Matthew Stone wants more and Maggie almost believes that their whirlwind romance is meant to be. Then she learns that Matthew is keeping a secret and the consequences could change everything . . .

“The dialogue zips, the hero is to die for—and suffers greatly before he gets the heroine—and the book moves along at an entertaining clip.” —All About Romance
