More than the truth was left unspoken... In one morning, Shelby Hunnicutt's whole world came apart. Her precious baby had been kidnapped - and the agent assigned to the case was none other than her ex-lover. A secret silence lay between them - haunting their lives, hindering their search. Dylan Tanner's heart went out to Shelby, but deep inside he knew there was more to this case than this pretty lady was willing to admit. Now only a smoky cloud of distrust was left where the heat of their passion had once burned. For Shelby, it was a smoke screen - one she clung to, knowing that detection would be disaster...especially if Dylan discovered that the child he searched for was his own.
