Publisher's Synopsis
New York Times bestselling author Janet Dailey-one of the most prolific and successful writers of her time-writes the rugged, all American hero like no one else can. Now she concludes her exciting, action packed trilogy about the charismatic Bannon brothers with the rough and ready Deke as he attempts to protect a reporter who has been targeted by an international gang.
With relentless suspense and a deft feel for creating men of power and character, Janet Dailey introduces three unforgettable brothers: RJ, Linc, and Deke Bannon.
Deke Bannon, federal criminal investigator, risks his life just about every damn day-but that doesn't mean he'll let Kelly Johns do the same. A deadly international gang has targeted the gorgeous news anchor for knowing too much and trying to find out more. To protect Kelly, Deke will have to keep her close-no matter how hard she fights him.
Good luck with that. Kelly's every instinct tells her she's stumbled across the story of her career. But there's a catch. Without Deke, she can't infiltrate the dark underworld operating beyond the reach of the law. With him, she's in a whole other kind of danger. On the case, Deke Bannon is a force of nature-unpredictable, unstoppable, and always one step ahead of her. Except when he takes her in his arms-and the world stands still for both of them . . .
