Detective Mitch Kane is hired by millionaire Layton Keller to find the son he's never known and the woman who took the boy fourteen years ago. But when Mitch finds them, he discovers that Alaina Chancellor isn't anything like he expected. Before he knows it, he's protecting her from determined hit men and trying to help her get her son back - but Alaina has been terribly hurt by a man in the past, and she doesn't trust anyone easily, especially a detective hired by her son's father. Unfortunately, she has no choice but to rely on Mitch, and as they race to save Jonah from his father, they discover that both their lives have been found wanting.From BooklistLamb, whose last book, Caught in the Act (2003) was a RITA Award finalist, is back in fine form with another novel of romantic suspense. Alaina Chancellor, a single mom, has been on the run since she was a teenager. First she was only hiding from the rapist who impregnated her, but after she accidentally killed a murderer he sent after her she is also on the run from the law. Detective Mitch Kane, who lost access to his own child, is hired by millionaire Layton Keller to find the heartless woman who took his child away.

Joyce Lamb

FromLamb's debut novel gets off to a fast and furious start as Florida jewel thief Margot Rhineheart discovers Beau Kama, the love of her life, brutally murdered. When she learns that her boss, Slater Nielson, had Beau killed, she flees the state. As Margot escapes, journalist Meg Grant arrives. Strangely enough, Meg looks remarkably like Margot, and no one believes that she isn't Margot, least of all Beau's brother, Ryan. He wants revenge for Beau's murder but is drawn to the feisty green-eyed woman who he believes jilted his brother. Meg's identity is finally verified but not before Nielson's men track her down and attack her. Luckily, Meg lives, and a guilt-ridden Ryan nurses her back to health. Meanwhile, one of Nielson's men finds the real Margot and hauls her back to Florida. The two women ultimately come face-to-face for a climactic showdown with Nielson that challenges everything that they hold dear. Relative Strangers is a rollicking ride full of blazing passion, nonstop suspense, and heart-pounding action. Megan KalanCopyright © American Library Association. All rights reserved
