Return
of the Lawman
May 2002
Harlequin Intrigue #664
ISBN:0-373-226644-0
WANTING HIM COULDN'T BE HELPED--FALLING FOR HIM HAD TO BE
Dylan Matthews had left Winter Falls a young man rocked by tragedy; he
returned a seasoned big-city cop with a dangerous case to solve and scars
that were still too tender to share.
Lindsey Warner couldn't deny that she still wanted Dylan---had never stopped
wanting him. But she was a woman now, a successful investigative reporter,
and she hadn't come home to relive the past. No, if she was going to survive
another encounter with Dylan Matthews, then she'd have to stick to getting
her story and getting out...before she got in over her head.
