No matter what else he is, Jack Guidry, former New Orleans undercover cop turned bounty hunter, is a stubborn cuss who never gives up. He works all the angles necessary to nab his fugitive, even if that means getting up close and personal with the lovely, but wary French Quarter pastry chef, Grace Comstock.
Grace isn't talking, certainly not to the handsome rogue who suspiciously pops up everywhere she goes. All she wants is to keep her job and her orphaned niece safe, so when a masked kidnapper ambushes them, she flees New Orleans—straight into the path of a dangerous hurricane.
Though she agrees to talk to Jack, she hadn't planned to ride out the storm with him. But that's what happens once he saves her and the baby from drowning. Even though he denies his attraction, Jack can't help feeling protective of this beautiful, frightened woman. When they wind up fighting for their lives, can Grace trust Jack enough to help him bring his fugitive to justice?
Fleeing the Storm, set in New Orleans, is a standalone emotional romantic suspense with steamy scenes as Jack and Grace learn to trust each other on their way to their Happily Ever After!
