Sydney Brooks sneaked out of Carlos Delmar's bed eight months ago with her boots in hand. She'd made a mistake-a big one. But when her best friend, Macy, is involved in a hit and run, and a mystery package arrives in the mail, her plan to avoid Carlos is thrown off balance. A hunt for the truth about her friend's accident leads her to Chicago and inadvertently back into Carlos' arms. Passion reignites and they both discover that what started between them isn't quite over. But is there time for romance when a threat from the past might end their lives before they can start over?
