From the #1 "New York Times" bestselling author of "The Crush" comes a classic love story about a woman whose life drastically changes after she steps onto an elevator. Laney McLeod's life changes the minute she gets stuck in an elevator in Manhattan-and relies on handsome stranger Deke Sargent to help her fight her claustrophobia. When the power comes back on, Deke and Laney find themselves in a passionate embrace that leads to a night of love. Shocked at her indiscretion, Laney disappears the next morning. Months later, she receives an even greater shock: Deke shows up in her life with an astounding announcement. Unable to forget the chemistry between them, but afraid that she's just another notch on this wealthy playboy's bedpost, Laney is about to discover an even deeper fear...one that she must face or forever lose the one man she can't resist. CONSEQUENCES The last thing Laney McLeod remembered after fainting in a stalled elevator the night of a blackout in New York City was waking up the morning after in a stranger's bed. A perfectly devastating stranger, it was true, but Laney fled too fast and too far to get the facts. But the night of abandonment she tried to forget had its consequences. Laney had run from intimacy all her life, but now intimacy pursued her---in the form of a new responsibility and a man who wouldn't let her forget the passionate woman he'd known. Hero: Deke Sargent Heroine: Laney or Lainey McLeod
