When a legal assistant turns up the heat on a cold case, she risks being burnt in this explosive romantic suspense from Karen Robards, author of Pursuit.
After her employer goes bankrupt, rising legal star Lisa Grant seizes the opportunity to be with her dying mother at her Kentucky horse ranch. Taking the first job that comes her way, she finds herself working with sexy but surly District Attorney Scott Buchanan, whom Lisa once tormented unmercifully.
Reviewing cold cases, Lisa opens the file on a family that disappeared nearly three decades before and is shocked to her core. The woman in the photo could be her twin ... and the little girl is holding a doll identical to Lisa's own.
Her curiosity is tweaked, but almost before her investigation is underway, an arson attack almost incinerates Lisa and her mother. They're rescued just in the nick of time by Scott, but someone clearly wants the past to stay dead and buried.
