TV news reporter Samantha Steele is one panic attack away from losing
her job. Future on the line and cameraman in tow, she follows her mentor on an
exhilarating adventure vacation. When he dies while skydiving, her
investigative instincts scream “murdered”, and lead her to gorgeous
thrill-seeker Zack Hunter. Zack is an undercover police officer investigating
his uncle’s death through the same adventure vacation company. Samantha is a
thorn in his side the moment they meet. Not only is she investigating the same
case, but the emotionally wounded loner doesn’t want another partner,
especially one whose goal is to splash evidence all over the evening news. But
Samantha’s persistence is quite a turn-on, and Zack’s overpowering desire makes
it harder for him to push her away. When the killer turns his attention to
Zack, Samantha might be the only one who can save him, forcing the
anxiety-riddled correspondent to finally face her greatest fear.

Excerpt from Alive at 5:
“Let’s do it.” Now
they had to make this look real. Turning to face Zack, Sam suddenly realized
the chemistry of the moment had stopped her anxiety from building. She was
nervous, but it felt different today. “So, cave diving is inherently dangerous.
Why do it?”
He cocked his head
and grinned like Tom Cruise in Top Gun. “I’m an adventurer.”
Those simple words
ignited heat in her belly. Or maybe it was that confident smile. She licked her
lips.
“I want to explore
the unknown,” he continued, looking right into her eyes. “To seek out what I’ve
never explored before. I want to run my fingers down a virgin passage, squeeze
through a small opening. I may get stuck a few times, move back and forth, and
work my way through, you know, into this mysterious place where I’ve never
been. It’s magical.”
Oh. My. God. She
took a deep breath, her heart drumming like tiny, nervous fingertips. He was
just playing with her. She had to remember that.
“There’s no
audience, no crowd.” He motioned to the sinkhole. “It’s your own personal
achievement. The ultimate pleasure.”
She started to ask
a question. “But—”
He cut her off.
“I’m a man who loves beauty.” His gaze bathed her again, warming her with its
intensity. “Very few people can say they’ve seen the light as it breaks through
crevices in the rock, painting an underwater cave in a rainbow of colors.” He
closed his eyes, the vision in his mind obviously blissful enough to raise his
lips into a smile. “There are no computers, no phones, no interruptions.” He
opened his eyes and stared deep into hers. “Do you know what I do when I’m in
an unexplored cavern?”
Her heart pounded
loud enough in the silent pause she was sure her microphone would pick up the
beat. “What?” She held her breath.
“I leave my
fingerprints all over the new territory, marking it as mine forever.”
She exhaled. Jesus.
He’s good.
