It is two years later. Abby Holt is a fugitive in Mexico City, running from an overzealous FBI agent who is determined to see her back in prison. Above all, she only desires one thing – to find Devon Fisher, the love of her life, who disappeared inexplicably off the face of the Earth.
Devon, on the other hand, still has amnesia. He is living it up in Australia, blissfully unaware of Abby’s existence. He is married to Claire. They have a baby on the way.
But the time must come for everything to collide. Devon will have to face the mind-bending truth and choose one woman – the mother of his child, or Abby, the love of his life.
This is the fifth and final book in the BURN series.
EXCERPT
The pretty house drew up at the end of the lane. It was painted a pastel yellow, with blue roofs and it had a swimming pool with a gazebo.
Taylor said, “Your wife isn’t home, is she?”
Devon didn’t want to disillusion her. Just yet.
“Wouldn’t you like to find out?” he said with a secret smile.
“How long have you been married?” She indicated the ring on his fourth finger. It was a simple gold band, inscribed with their wedding date.
“Just about a year and a half.”
“Oh, newlyweds.”
He glanced at her quizzically. “Not really.”
“Where did you meet?”
His wife had filled him in on the details. Otherwise, Devon wouldn’t have remembered it.
“In America. We are both Americans. We met at Starbucks.”
“Starbucks! Not at a bar?”
“Nope. Apparently, we share the same cappuccino tastes, and so we started to talk and exchange notes on the mocha caramel latte. One thing led to another, and here we are.”
There was a lot in between, Devon knew. He had been trying to catch up on all the times in the past two years.
“That’s it? No torrid sex stories? No skeletons in the closet? No jilted lover in the wings?”
Apparently not.
“Nope. Just a normal, boring courtship.”
Actually, the sex was pretty torrid.
“You don’t strike me as the type to get married.”
“Oh, really? Why not?”
“You’re too young, for one. And – ” Her hand strayed to his crotch again.
He laughed as he put the car in park. Taylor looked up apprehensively.
“Are you sure your wife isn’t at home?”
