From back of cover:
All she could see were his eyes…

Though Graham Dufour's ebony eyese lit up her dreams for the past ten years, Lindsey Lathan hoped she could come back to New Orleans without seeing the man who'd once stolen her heart. A lot had changed between them-but one touch from the bad-boy-made-good could still ignite her desire.

Then she rode in a Mardi Gras parade and saw someone else's eyes behind a mask. Those of a faceless killer who'd used the masquerade to hide his crime. And he'd seen Lindsey.

Once, she'd been forced to run from Graham; now she had no choice but to run straight into his arms. For passion and for protection…


Not much to say on this one. The intrigue was well done. There were a few logical suspects to be the murderer so the identity wasn't blatantly obvious. The setting of New Orleans and Mardi Gras was fun. Neither character really moved me, but they weren't unlikeable or anything. Just a nice quick read, a break from the mysteries and horror I've been reading in abundance lately.
