After six weeks working a grueling undercover job, the last thing Sarah Miller wants is to jump headfirst into another assignment. She doesn’t have a choice. Business is booming at Shrew & Company, and besides the boss lady herself, Sarah’s the only woman equipped to handle the latest Were-bear drama. When she gets to the mountains—ready to go in with guns blazing—Dana reassigns her. The circus is in town, and their most famous acrobat has gone missing.

Except…he hasn’t.

Felipe Castillo is on the run, and the thing that’s giving him chase is scaring Dana, too. It’s now Sarah’s job to coax the slippery Spaniard out of hiding and get him someplace safe…assuming they can keep their clothes on. Felipe may not speak English well, but the way his body moves needs no translation.

Sarah’s not interested in commitment, especially not with a man who cheats death for a living, but something about the acrobat has her enthralled. Perhaps it’s because he seems to have just as many secrets as her. Maybe even more.

### About the Author

Holley Trent is a Carolina girl gone West. Raised in rural coastal North Carolina, she has Southern sensibilities but her adventurous spirit drove her to Colorado for new experiences. Holley writes sassy contemporary romances threaded with oodles of conversational humor, and fantasy/paranormal romances set in her home state. Her protagonists regularly fall victim to her odd sense of humor and find themselves in improbable situations (with happily-every-after outcomes). Holley's cast of characters tends to swear, drink and do a fair amount of carousing, but they're generally well-intentioned and obey all laws and ordinances. Usually. Her work is available from Calliope Romance/Musa Publishing, and Crimson Romance, and she has novels contracted for release in 2013 via Lyrical Press. When she has a bit of free time, she self-publishes quirky romance novelettes and novellas.
