title: Hot Pursuit
author: Agnew, Denise A.
description: It's make or break time…
  
  Betrayal seems to follow Lucy Creed wherever she goes. With visions of her military-issue boyfriend kissing another woman dancing in her head, she stomps into a local bar, ready, willing and -- hell, yeah -- able to hook up for New Year's Eve.
  
  The first man who brings her inner wild thing to attention is one delicious hunk with “perfect one-night stand” stamped all over him. He also turns out to be the all-grown-up version of a young man she blew off in high school. And damn it, he's the one thing she's sworn off: military.
  
  In Major Vic Moore's mind, Lucy is the one that got away. Now that she's popped up on his radar, the temptation to let their mutual desire burn is too intense to ignore. It also sends up red flags -- he's fresh from a relationship that almost ruined his career.
  
  Yet their scorching chemistry is too strong to ignore, and Vic finds himself going all out to change her well-entrenched ideas about military men. But as their secrets spill out, the weight of the past may be too much for their fragile trust to bear.
