Hers To Remember. Karen Lawton Barrett

“We can’t make love yet, sunshine.”
Adrienne blushed. “Is that what you think this is about? That I’m begging you to make love to me?”
“I think you’re scared.” Sam replied. “You’re grabbing for all the life you can. Making love is the most life affirming act there is.”
She shook her head. “No…”
“Yes.” He pulled her against him, knowing she would feel his desire. “I do want you. But knowing you want me isn’t enough. You have to start remembering first. I need to know you want me as the man you love.” He ran his hand down her back, glorying in and dreading the telltale shiver he felt against him. “There’s nothing I want more than to make love to you.”
Adrienne’s green eyes had darkened, indicating clearly that she wanted him, too.
“Kiss me, Sam. I really need you to kiss me.”
Dear Harlequin Intrigue Reader,
This month, some of your favorite Harlequin Intrigue authors—and a first-timer—deliver a killer selection of books for you to enjoy.
Amanda Stevens closes the case in the final installment of her GALLAGHER JUSTICE miniseries with Nick Gallagher’s story, Forbidden Lover (#557). The Gallagher brothers were born to serve and protect, and three more sexy lawmen you’d be hard-pressed to find. If you missed the first two books, be sure to let us know!
In her twentieth 43 LIGHT STREET title, Ruth Glick writing as Rebecca York scorches some paper with Never Too Late (#558), the steamy story of Scott O’Donnell and Mariana Reyes. Harlequin Intrigue is proud to bring you this terrific ongoing series and we thank you for making it one of our most popular features.
Also, this month, Patricia Rosemoor—Harlequin Intrigue’s most-published author—launches her very own miniseries, SONS OF SILVER SPRINGS. Sometimes it takes a family tragedy to bring siblings back together. But nothing is thicker than blood. Meet the Quarrels brothers in Heart of a Lawman (#559).
Finally, newcomer Karen Lawton Barrett contributes her first title to Harlequin Intrigue. We know you’ll love Hers To Remember (#560) for its emotional drama and highly charged suspense. Hang on to your seats when you read this A MEMORY AWAY… story!
Take home all four books for an exhilarating rush of romance.
Sincerely,
Denise O’Sullivan

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Karen Lawton Barrett was raised in a small town in central California, where one of her elementary school teachers once wrote on a report card, “Karen daydreams too much.” These days she uses her active imagination to create romantic suspense stories. This is her first book for Harlequin Intrigue. It is set on the Monterey Peninsula, the Barrett family’s favorite destination for Sunday drives, kite flying and picnics on the beach.
