Death hadn't passed her by--it had simply taken a detour.
Brett O'Malley had barely escaped the explosion. And now that she had found Matt Spencer, she knew he would keep her safe. But protecting a woman was not in Matt's plans, especially one who had no idea who she was and why someone was trying to kill her. With her memory impaired, all Brett remembers is that Scott, the man she had been dating for the past few months, had told her to find Matt if she was ever in trouble. But Scott was dead now. Realizing that Brett is alone and in real danger, Matt, a former Air Force intelligence officer, grudgingly agrees to help her.
Set in Denver against the colorful backdrop pf the Rocky Mountains, Matt and Brett struggle to find the killer that Brett calls 'the phantom" and discover why she is marked to be its next victim. While on the run, their unexpected attraction for one another is powerful, causing them to soon realize the passion they share is also danger--of a very different kind.
