Janice is a teacher and mom of twin boys. Since her husband's death four years ago, she's focused on those two areas of her life to the exclusion of all else, and it takes a blown tire and a crash into a ditch in a deserted canyon to reawaken her interest in romance.Adrian is a businessman who works and plays hard on his way to an important meeting, but, encountering the scene of the accident, he stops to see if he can help. The spunky blonde driver of the wrecked car, skittish and distrustful, awakens his protective instinct, and suddenly his plans for the evening have taken a completely new--and more interesting--direction.As with her first short story,The Swing of Her Hips, Selene Grace Silver weaves a seductive tale of two independent people brought together by the hand of fate. Silver's captivating characters sizzle in this spicy tale of love and risk-taking.All in all, a quick and eminently satisfying read for a dreary October afternoon.
