that hold their idyllic town together are about to be tested.
Tasked with finding the killer, FBI investigator Vince Leone
employs a new and controversial FBI technique called "profiling,"
which plunges him into the lives of the four children-and the young
teacher whose need to uncover the truth is as intense as his own.
But as new victims are found, Vince and Anne find themselves
circling the same small group of local suspects, blissfully unaware
that someone very near to them is a murderous psychopath...

York Times" bestselling author Tami Hoag poignantly captures one
eventful summer in the life of a woman facing the ultimate
relationship dilemma.
It took only one look for Genna Hastings to make up her mind about
her new next-door neighbor, J. J. Hennessy. She knew his type all
too well: Jared Jay Hennessy was tall and handsome, a man who
thought he was God's gift to women. From the pink flamingos dotting
his front yard to the all-night boozy barbecues, he threatened to
disrupt Genna's peaceful summer off from teaching. But beneath his
carefree smile and teasing nature, J.J. was a man as serious about
the future as he was about Genna. He'd come to this quiet
Connecticut town to change his life, and he challenged Genna to
help him become Mr. Right. It was a challenge she knew she'd be
smart to refuse . . . and one J.J. knew she couldn't resist.
From #1 "New York Times" bestselling author Tami Hoag comes this
romance classic about a man in love--and the woman who's determined
to prove it to him...
Maggie McSwain should have been thrilled when Rylan Quaid asked her
to marry him. Instead, she was crushed. After all her romantic
fantasies, Ry's proposal was missing one crucial element: "love.
"But Maggie would prove to Ry that he had a heart--and then she'd
use every teasing, tempting ounce of seductive power she had to
capture it. The next time he proposed to her--and there would be a
next time--common sense would be the last thing on his mind.
As far as Ry was concerned, solid partnerships made for lasting
marriages--and that's what he could have with Maggie. Of course he
wanted her, as any man with eyes would want her. But he couldn't
love her...because he'd vowed never to fall in love again. Now it
seemed that the only way to make her his wife was to use reverse
psychology. He'd just retract his proposal--and pretend to be
immune to her charms. He had no idea what a challenge that would
turn out to be.
