All she has left is hope When Kaz Elmore is told her five-year-old daughter Jamie has died in a car crash, she struggles to accept that she'll never see her little girl again. Then a stranger comes into her life offering the most dangerous substance in the world: hope.

But the more time he spends with Kaz, the more he desires her ? and the more his carefully constructed ice-man persona starts to unravel . The desperate search for Jamie leads down dangerous paths ? to a murderous acquaintance from Devlin's dark past, and all across Europe, to Italy, where deadly secrets await. But as long as Kaz has hope, she can't stop looking? AUTHOR: Evonne Wareham was born in South Wales and spent her childhood there.
