    About Affair

    Charlotte Arkendale knew all there was to know about men. After all, she’d made a career out of steering marriage-minded women away from untrustworthy members of the opposite sex.

    Yet nothing could have prepared her for Baxter St. Ives–an arresting stranger too daring, too determined, too dangerous to be her new man-of-affairs. Still, perhaps he was the perfect person to help Charlotte investigate the recent murder of one of her clients. So she gave him a chance, never realizing that Baxter, a gifted scientist, would soon conduct a risky exploration into the alchemy of desire, with Charlotte as his subject.

    But even as he sets out to seduce Charlotte, a twisted killer lies in wait, ready to part the lovers…or see them joined together forever–in death.
