Publisher's Note Summer's new life isn't glamourous as owner/sole employee of the Daisy Fresh janitorial company. Scrubbing the floors of a funeral home, Summer sees a corpse "come to life" and becomes his hostage on a wild run from his past. "Frankenstein", as Summer calls the man battered beyond recognition, forces Summer to realize that people aren't always what they seem.
The nude male body lay on the embalming table, battered beyond recognition. Gingerly, Summer McAfee, chairman, CEO, and sole employee of Daisy Fresh cleaning service, reached out to touch an arm to reassure herself that she hadnt just seen the corpse move. Suddenly, shockingly, her hand was in the viselike grip of a man very much alive and desperate enough to take her captive on a no-holds-barred run from cops, killers, and his own decidedly complicated past...Summers former life as a New York lingerie model had gone south with her marriage, leaving her, at thirty-six, single and back home in Tennessee, on her hands and knees scrubbing other peoples bathrooms. But the drab present vanishes in a flash as she's forced to flee into the Tennessee wilds with the stranger she calls Frankenstein, first as his captive, then his companion, as they run from the enemies determined to destroy them both--straight into a raging passion that could only be the last laugh of fate...
