Fiction. Romance. Suspense. Thriller. HTML:For romantic-suspense junkies and fans of Nora Roberts and Karen Robards, bestselling author Kathy Clark kicks off her Austin Heroes series with a pulse-pounding tale of two wounded souls tempted by a dangerous proposition: new love.
 
/> DEA agent Nick Archer puts his life on the line every day. A former Marine, he fears nothing . . . except commitment. Nick has no trouble finding women eager to warm his bed, and no problem sending them on their way the morning after. Relationships don�??t mix with risky careers, a fact Nick learned the hard way after his marriage fell apart. He�??d go it alone if it weren�??t for his new K-9 partner�??and the stunning trainer who makes Nick sit up and take notice.
 
Just like her service dogs, Jamie Chambers knows how to sniff out trouble. From the moment Nick swaggers into her kennel, she knows he�??s heartbreak waiting to happen, and he wastes no time getting under her skin. Hell, he doesn�??t even like dogs. As a cop�??s widow, Jamie has felt the sting of loss in the line of duty, yet she recognizes something of her own pain in Nick�??s smoldering gaze. Jamie knows there are no guarantees in life. But a moment of pleasure, however fleeting, holds the promise of forever�??and for that, Jamie�??s willing to take the plunge.
Praise for After Love
 
�??Fast-paced, riveting . . . Playful dialogue between Nick and Jamie certainly kept me entertained, and I loved every moment they were together as their banter increased the sexual tension between them. . . . [The author] did justice to their instant and intense chemistry. . . . I would recommend After Love by Kathy Clark if you love romantic suspense, or are a fan of Nora Roberts or Karen Robards.�?��??Harlequin Junkie
