IN THE DARK OF THE NIGHT

Was She Falling In Love With the Man? Or the Badge? A few weeks ago, Karen Lindberg wouldn't have had to ask herself that question. But she hadn't met Neal Rowland then. And in a small town torn apart by suspicion—by danger—the local police chief meant protection. Maybe Karen had always harbored a secret wish to find a man stronger than she was, a man who could take care of her. Nonsense! Karen was a born rebel who'd never wanted to depend on anyone. It was time she took matters into her own hands and stopped waiting passively for a man to protect her. And if Neal couldn't accept that—accept her right to choose her own risks—then he wasn't the man for her. Her decision made perfect sense. In the daylight. But in the dark of night, all that matters is love.
