His twin goals: test this specimens suitability for cloning, while also exacting revenge against Briettas cousin the human who tried to thwart his first DNA-hunt.Meanwhile, cocky adventurer Sean Taggert regrets hiring Brietta for this gig despite her perfect credentials. For one thing, shes annoyingly attractive. Plus, shes too perceptive, and might realize that the cemetery is just a decoy something to distract from Taggerts real find.Theres no question that Sean Taggert is as sexy as he is talented, but Brietta has no intention of damaging her reputation for a small fling. Besides that, shes too busy trying to keep her headaches under control to bother with passion. But for how long will the headaches simply remain headaches? Garag is getting closer to finding his perfect specimen and this time no one is going to get in his way, not Brietta and certainly not cocky Sean Taggert.ABOUT THE AUTHOR:Kate Donovan was born in Ohio, moved to Rhode Island at the age of nine, and moved again during high school, this time to Northern California.
