Publisher's Synopsis
Sparks fly when Stacey Parker meets Cord McConnell in the Bitterroot Wilderness of Eastern Idaho. From their first heated exchange, she doubts they will survive their assignment in the wilderness without killing each other. Cord McConnell isn't prepared for the sight of the young woman with the wild mane of strawberry blond curls who claims to be his tracker. No way is he agreeing to follow this girl into the woods on such a dangerous assignment! But time is ticking away and two kidnapped boys will not survive if he fails. Committed to the job and without other options, Cord reluctantly agrees. Days and nights on the trail take on new meaning as Cord and Stacey struggle against the wilderness and a growing physical attraction. Idealistic and innocent, Stacey is determined to save herself for marriage. Emotionally and physically scarred, Cord doesn't do first times or marriage. When danger inserts itself into the tension between them, will they be able to save the boys? At the end of the mission, can they go their separate ways-or will fate step in and force them to face another dangerous situation and their attraction once again?
