Even small towns hide secrets... When Lissa Williams loses both her job as editor of a hard-hitting news magazine, and her fiance, in a one-two punch, she doesn't plan to compound her troubles by first getting drunk and then into a sexy stranger's bed. Nor does she expect to wind up in the tiny hamlet of Oslo, West Virginia, three months later, after her best friend is carjacked and left to die. Her shock at realizing that the first person she meets in Oslo is the same sexy stranger who had rocked her world in a single night, is softened by the realization he doesn't remember her. But how long can she keep things that way when he insists on volunteering as her handyman at the wreck of a house she's rented? Folks in Oslo know Nat "Duke" O'Keefe as the man who's taken over the town's tow truck service. No one suspects his real job is undercover cop with an elite, multi-state task force investigating a sophisticated auto theft ring financing a global trade in illegal weapons. When a beautiful woman shows up in the two-bit town of Oslo, his boss orders him to cozy up to the town's newest resident and figure out just what she's up to. That suits him fine, until the sparks between them lights a strange remembrance, a tinder of desire, and danger that may kill them both.
