Publisher Comments:

Small-town librarian Charity Prewitt never dreamed she'd meet and fall in love with a man like Nicholas Ames. The handsome, rich, charming, sexy-as-hell millionaire blew into tiny Parker's Ridge, Vermont, and immediately rocked her world. Powerful, sensual, the perfect man, Nick knows all the right words—and all the right spots to touch, sending her soaring to dizzying new heights of ecstatic abandon. Never before has prim and proper Charity leapt into bed with a perfect stranger—and now that she's there with him, nothing is going to drag her away!

But Nick Ames is not who he claims to be. In truth, he is Nicholas Ireland—the one they call "Iceman." A former Delta Force operator, now a high-level undercover agent, he will do whatever his government asks of him—lie, seduce, betray . . . even kill, if necessary—for the sake of the mission. And this time his mission is Charity Prewitt.

Suddenly one woman has broken down his chilly restraint and ignited his passions completely. And before the erotic dream turns into a nightmare, will Charity be able to melt the Iceman's cold, cold heart?

Lisa Marie Rice can write the hell out of a story!!
"Dangerous Secrets" is her new release and her fans will not be disappointed. She's done an excellent job of making the jump to a big publishing house without losing her trademark steam.

Charity is a small town librarian who sacrificed her dreams to tend to her failing, elderly aunt and uncle who ended up raising her after the traumatic death of her parents. She's stunned and thrilled when a wealthy, handsome businessman turns up in her small town and takes a decided interest in her. She really didn't mean to fall in love...but he's just so perfect for her, and the sex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!

Nick is undercover again. At least this time he's not working for a lowlife wannabe mobster with a sicko sister. Nope, this time his assignment is a dream come true. He gets to romance a pretty woman...if he could just keep his mind on the job instead of her, uh...assets. Soon, the whole situation is FUBAR and his main focus becomes saving the girl.

Rice's writing is steamy and edgy. He works for Homeland Security and she's a small town librarian. And she makes this work!! The action is fast-paced, and the bad guys are truly bad. The good guys, well let's just say they're not TOO good...if you know what I mean. I think I fell a little in love with Nick myself. If you liked her 'Midnight' series from Ellora's Cave, you're gonna love this one!!
