River Rapture
Markham, Patricia
Lisa Taylor had always dreamed of seeing her by-line in New York's glamorous Ostyle magazine. Could one special assignment shatter years of hard work? Her subject: Brendan Donovan, the infamous racing-car champion who'd quit the track after a near-fatal accident. But the man she cornered in his sumptuous South Carolina hideaway was no reckless playboy. Everything about this brooding dynamo threatened her hard-won objectivity. And it was one treacherous step from their meeting to a weekend shooting the rapids on Virginia's tempestuous New River. Gone were thoughts of New York, of career and success. All that remained was the fevered beating of her heart as she rode the roaring waters, swept away on the wild torrent, torn between cold reason and burning desire.
