Description en VO :

COLE -- A Ruthless Desperado Who Played Rough, and Made a Woman Like It...

The dark bar might be the right place to hire an outlaw, but a Cole Sinclair wasn't looking for a job -- and figured the lady with the diamond eyes needed a lesson in playing with danger... but he couldn't scare her off! He'd never be anyone's hero, but somehow she'd breathed life back into his embittered soul, made him feel respect -- and astonishingly fierce desire for this woman who dared to touch him.

His Dark Eyes Warned Her: Trespass at Your Own Risk

Once Cole Sinclair captured her mouth, Kira felt she'd carry his mark forever. Need shot through her with a violence that rocked her, sensations so intense they engulfed her body and seduced her mind. She'd offered him anything to recover her stolen dolphin, vowed to fight his demons, but Cole knew pain was all he had left of his heart. Could she prove she loved him, scars and all, and always would?

Bestselling author Donna Kauffman offers up a steamy tale of two people on a dangerous mission—and the passion that threatens to consume them if they survive.

By the time she enters the last seedy bar on Key West, Kira Douglass is desperate. She’s looking for the one man who can help her: Cole Sinclair, an ex-smuggler turned musician with a highly refined set of skills and a keen knowledge of the reefs and waterways of the Keys. But what she finds is a man whose dark eyes and powerful manner send a frisson of desire to her very core. Kira needs Cole’s help to recover the dolphin that was stolen from her charitable organization, but now she realizes that she needs his body and his soul, as well.

Cole Sinclair isn’t looking for a job. He has worked hard to isolate himself from the world, to be alone with his own tortured past and the pain left in its wake. But the attraction he feels simmering with Kira leaves him unsettled and uncertain. If he agrees to help this beguiling woman recover the stolen dolphin, he could be risking more than just his life. He could be risking his heart.
