RIVER ROAD From the New York Times–bestselling author of Dream Eyes and Copper Beach, a brand-new quintessential Jayne Ann Krentz romance.      Its been thirteen years since Lucy Sheridan was in Summer River. The last time she visited her aunt Sara there, as a teenager, shed been sent home suddenly after being dragged out of a wild party—by the guy she had a crush on, just to make it more embarrassing. Obviously Mason Fletcher—only a few years older but somehow a lot more of a grown-up—was the overprotective type who thought he had to come to her rescue.     Now, returning after her aunts fatal car accident, Lucy is learning there was more to the story than she realized at the time. Mason had saved her from a very nasty crime that night—and soon afterward, Tristan, the cold-blooded rich kid whod targeted her, disappeared mysteriously, his body never found.     A lot has changed in thirteen years. Lucy now works for a private investigation firm as a forensic genealogist, while Mason has quit the police force to run a successful security firm with his brother—though he still knows his way around a wrench when he fills in at his uncles local hardware store. Even Summer River has changed, from a sleepy farm town into a trendy upscale spot in Californias wine country. But Mason is still a protector at heart, a serious (and seriously attractive) man. And when he and Lucy make a shocking discovery inside Saras house, and some of Tristans old friends start acting suspicious, Masons quietly fierce instincts kick into gear. He saved Lucy once, and hell save her again. But this time, she insists on playing a role in her own rescue . . .
