He has gained an unsavory reputation in Lillian's eyes, but he thinks the sexy petite bookstore owner is someone for whom he would like to change. The fact that she doesn't want him near her is moot, especially when a serial killer who has a thing for Lillian is knocking off women who don't meet Lillian's standards. Michael takes on the task of guarding her, but this job has become personal, as the playboy has fallen in love....
Laura Henion takes the reader on a thrill ride with Lillian's Love. The villain is creepy and smart and seems to stay one step ahead of Michael and Lillian.
