The Favor
by Cara Summers

How far would you go to get everything you've ever wanted?

After a kiss with a mysterious stranger gets out of control, sensible academic Sierra Gibbs is both frightened and excited by what security specialist Ryder Kane does to her.

Would you have phone sex?

When Ryder seduces her on her cell phone, Sierra experiences something even more shockingly sinful. And she wants that kind of thrill again...and again.

Would you make him an offer he couldn't refuse?

Sierra knows Ryder would make the perfect sex partner. His line of work requires him to be daring and impulsive—exactly what she wants in bed.

Would you risk your life?

But when she gets caught in the middle of the dangerous case he's working on, even the bold new Sierra isn't sure she can handle a man like Ryder. That is, until Ryder starts calling in some favors of his own...

Cara Summers' Bio

Cara Summers, blames her tenth grade English teacher for nudging her into the writer's life. Sister Rose Terrence insisted that she enter a short story contest sponsored by the Detroit News, and Cara won! Of course, she was thrilled with the award -- a dictionary that still sits on her desk -- but at that time, her goal in life was to become an actress.

Eventually, she attained that goal, and it was only after her three sons were born that she turned her full attention to writing again. Cara believes that her background in theater has influenced her writing, allowing her to create new characters and bring them to life for the reader.

She sold her first Temptation to Harlequin in 1994, and that book, C.J.'s Defense, also sits on her desk -- right next to the dictionary. When she isn't working on her next Temptation or Blaze, Cara teaches writing to college freshmen at Syracuse University and roller blades (weather permitting).
