      “You tell me I don’t know what I’m doing. Yet every instinct tells me having you in my arms is the right thing…Have I kissed you before?”

      Jacinta felt her cheeks flame. “Yes.”

      “Have we made love?”

      The answer stuck in her throat. “Mathiaz, please…”

      “Answer the question or you’re fired.”

      She hesitated, wondering whether to call his bluff. “Go ahead and fire me,” she said quietly. The thought of leaving swamped her in misery, but anything was better than dealing with this. Mathiaz couldn’t know that he was rubbing salt into a raw wound with every word.

      “I wish I could. But as long as you hold the key to the hole in my memory, I’m not letting you go,” he said.

      His eyes brightened, boring into her. “I need you, Jacinta. To help me remember.”

      Become a fan—if you aren’t hooked already!—of THE COLTONS with the newest addition to the legendary family saga, Teresa Southwick’s Sky Full of Promise (#1624), about a stone-hearted doctor in search of a temporary fiancée.

      VALERIE PARV

      lives and breathes romance and has even written a guide to being romantic, crediting her cartoonist husband of nearly thirty years as her inspiration. As a former buffalo and crocodile hunter in Australia’s Northern Territory, he’s ready-made hero material, she says.

      When not writing her novels and nonfiction books, or speaking about romance on Australian radio and television, Valerie enjoys dollhouses, being a Star Trek fan and playing with food (in cooking, that is). Valerie agrees with actor Nichelle Nichols who said, “The difference between fantasy and fact is that fantasy simply hasn’t happened yet.”

      Mathiaz was floating.

      Pain shredded the edges of the mist surrounding him, but he found if he concentrated, he could push the pain away and enjoy the sensation of nothingness. Of floating free of care.

      “Come on, Baron, don’t do this to me.”

      The woman’s voice punched through the mist, bringing the awareness
