Publisher's Synopsis
Beth Myers is a twenty-six-year-old waitress working at a diner in Scottsdale, Arizona. She feels her life is going nowhere and she is desperate for a fresh start. But for Beth, a fresh start just isn't possible anytime soon. One night six months ago, Beth took a wrong turn and witnessed a mob murder in the streets of Pittsburgh. The killer, Travis Briggs, was able to take a picture of her license plate and began to threaten her. The FBI forced her to go into the Witness Protection Program and relocated her to the picturesque town of Scottsdale until they are able to locate Travis Briggs. So far he has not been found and she has been stuck living a false life with no end in sight. Then one day, a handsome stranger named Doug Haynes comes into the diner. He is sexy, smooth, and charming. Beth is instantly smitten with him, but she sworn to stay under the radar as much as possible. With her situation, she can't afford to get involved with anyone. One day a madman comes into the diner waving a gun to rob the place. Hearing police sirens in the distance fast approaching, the maniac becomes agitated and points his pistol at Beth ready to fire, until Doug wrestles him to the ground and knocks him unconscious. It turns out, Doug is the newest member of the Scottsdale Police Department, newly arrived from Chicago. As Doug comforts Beth in the aftermath of the robbery, they form a friendship which eventually turns into a romance.
