New York Times bestseller Brenda Novak (Body Heat, Killer Heat) visits with her latest romantic thriller, White Heat. A dangerous cult has taken over the desert ghost town of Paradise, Arizona. Members worship at the feet—and in the bed—of its charismatic leader, Ethan Wycliff, and obey his orders blindly. They've already tried to murder one woman and they're implicated in the disappearance of another. Private security contractor Nate Ferrentino has been assigned to infiltrate the group. It's a challenge he welcomes—until he learns that colleague Rachel Jessop will be going undercover with him. Thanks to their shared history, he'd much rather go alone, but only married couples can participate in the rituals. There's no choice, because if Wycliff isn't exposed, if he isn't stopped, more people will die. And Rachel might be one of them.
