description: She's holding out for love...
  In this stunning sequel to Spellbound, N.Y.P.D. detective Adam Wexler suddenly finds himself playing bodyguard to Hollywood sex symbol Samantha Hathaway, the sole survivor of the suspicious crash that killed his brother--and the star of Adam's secret fantasies. But from the moment he enters her hospital room, he senses the real woman beneath the image.
  
  ...that could be the real thing.
  Sam's director says Adam is there to prep her for her newest film role, but Sam thinks the brash New York cop has already cast her...as the prime suspect in her ex-fiance's murder. While the case heats up and a killer draws near, so does the passion sizzling between them, leaving Sam to wonder if the biggest danger of all lies in trusting her heart to Adam.
