But days after Lozada's release, one of Rennie's professional rivals is brutally murdered. Although Lozada's dark shadow looms over the case, Rennie becomes the prime suspect ... while Lozada stalks her, growing more obsessed with having her.

Enter policeman Wick Threadgill. He wants Lozada behind bars for murdering his brother. While keeping surveillance on the elusive killer, Wick finds himself drawn to the object of Lozada's obsession, the sultry Dr. Newton. Rennie, in turn, is intrigued by the handsome cop and his tortured past. Just as their relationship is about to blossom into something more, the dangerous triangle begins to form ... with Rennie as the object of two men's desires--one a brutal murderer and the other a lonely policeman with revenge in his heart."@en
