When a string of deadly warnings convinces Dallas majoy Jessica Kincaid that she needs a bodyguard, she hires Brant Harding. The former secret service agent takes the job for one very personal reason - and it has nothing to do with this tempting woman. I thought I had this one all figured out - how wrong I was! Very likeable characters - a real page turner.

But the treat to Jessica's life has intensified-and it's coming from within the power structure of the city itself. Even Brant's best efforts may not be enough to save her, or to buy them both a second chance."

Mayor Jessica Kincaid of Dallas still misses her late spouse though he died four years ago. She especially feels her loss since she began receiving obscene calls and email, and nasty packages. She has not told the police because she wonders if the two cops she suspended or the chief she fired are behind the incidents. Her best friend Veronica Nash has her husband Thurman, owner of a security firm, arrange protection. Thurman visits his old Secret Service buddy, Brant Harding, hiding as a recluse in Arkansas. Brant says no though he wants to go to Dallas to become part of the life of his teenage son Elliot. Thurman blackmails Brant into taking the job by reminding him he owes him.
Reluctantly, Brant travels to Dallas and interrogates Jessica on the police suspensions, the hostility of council members, and a controversial land deal. Brant struggles with making headway with an angry Elliot while also works hard to keep Jessica safe from an unknown assailant. While living and working in proximity, they fall in love, but the mayor of a large city and a wilderness hermit apparently has no chance for a permanent relationship.

HIS TOUCH is an action-packed fun to read romantic suspense starring two intriguing characters. However, both of the two lead characters carry heavy burdens that would wear out Job and some readers who will find too many distracting subplots. Still, Mary Lynn Baxter's fans will take immense pleasure in this loaded thriller.

From the back cover:

They weren't looking for each other...

When a string of deadly warnings convinces Dallas mayor Jessica Kincaid that she needs a bodyguard, she hires Brant Harding. The former secret service agent takes the job for one very personal reason-and it has nothing to do with this tempting woman.

But the chemistry was too powerful to resist.

As their personal agendas intersect, Jessica and Brant find themselves at odds, yet drawn to each other with a passion neither can deny. But the threat to Jessica's life has intensified-and it's coming from within the power structure of the city itself. Even Brant's best efforts may not be enough to save her, or to buy them both a second chance.
