But before Phoebe can pursue the matter, the professor in question turns up dead—and the FBI sends Cortez to investigate. Cortez thought he'd left the past behind him—especially his history with Phoebe. Once, she'd sparked his world-weary soul...but he'd had to walk away. Now, seeing the blonde beauty digs up feelings he'd thought buried for good. But he must keep his emotions in check—he has secrets...and one of them revolves around a child with eyes as dark as his own. As they find themselves entangled in a world of conspiracy and deception, they'll discover something more powerful than anything they've ever known—love. No library descriptions found. |

The book was published in 2004 so I'm not sure why it was set in 1994 and 1997.
I liked the thing that kept them apart for the first 3 years. When they met again they got it out and explained pretty quickly but then kept regressing and having problems mistrusting each other's feelings which seemed odd since they seemed to be so open with each other about the said feelings.
The biggest weirdness was that this story took place over 1 to 2 weeks and the characters reacted and had conversations as if months were passing.
The suspense part was not real strong. If not for that driving the plot to happen so fast maybe the previous conversations would have made more sense. The bad guys were pretty bungling.
The best part was the strength of the hero's feeling for the heroine. He really seemed to love her and regret having to hurt her 3 years earlier and want to really protect and care for her. He really seemed to love her intensely.
