Katie Derby had a simple life.  She had always had everything that she wanted, wore designer clothes and drove the best cars.  Sure her parents always seemed to have fights, her mom would fly away to Italy and her dad would go to Alaska. It had always been that way for as long as she could remember but they would always calm down and make up.  Never in a million years would she have guessed exactly what had been really been going on and that when that secret was out, it would change her life forever.Jason and Katie had been best friends since they were small children and he saved her drowning at the country club that their moms often frequented.  He'd never seen her anything other than his best friend, the one person that he knew he could always count on.  At least he didn't until she kissed him and all he did was sit there.  He wanted to explain it to her but before he could, Katie's life went spiraling out of control and she disappeared with no contact her to her family, friends or him. When he finally finds her half way around the world, he has no idea what's in store for them because someone is after Katie and while they want her alive, they don't care if he gets killed in the process.If you read the book Lasting Pride then you have read the Epilogue to this book because it's pulled word for word from Katie and Jason's meeting at the coffee shop. This was a great spin off book and I will say that while I was able to figure out who the bad guys were in the all of the other books, this one I had no idea and was really caught off guard when it was revealed at the end.  I never saw it coming!Secret Seduction is another well written book by Jill Sanders with lots of mystery, intrigue and romance.  I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Secret Pleasure, which features two of the characters from this book.
