Quote:A former military special ops.
A shy medical researcher.
Both must safeguard a deadly virus.

Microbiology investigator, Gwen MacLaine, temporarily in charge of her research laboratory, is anxious to prove herself. But when she's followed across New York City to retrieve a book from Will Strongbow, she grows increasingly wary.

Will, ex-military intelligence officer, now marine engineer for Metadorakis Shipping, is immediately struck by smart, beautiful Gwen. Someone is obviously hounding her, though, and he's not about to let her out of his sight.

When they discover her stalker isn't alone, and her family is also threatened, they join forces to stay safe. But can they put their simmering attraction on the back burner to protect the lab and dodge the dangerous international criminals intent on owning the lethal germ?
