Résumé:
His mission: Get close to Alice May. Learn her secrets. Expose her lies. And if she’s guilty…lock her up.
Undercover FBI Agent Zander Todd typically spends his days and his nights tracking killers. But, lately, he’s been pretending that he’s a different man. He’s been working his way into the life of beautiful but reserved Alice May. He’s supposed to make her trust him completely. Alice is the key to a serial murder case that the FBI has been working for years. She’s also the chief suspect.
Alice was engaged to Hugh Collins, the man who turned out to be the elusive “Secret Admirer” killer. Hugh picked women that he thought were perfect, he seduced them, and when they failed to live up to his image of perfection…their Secret Admirer brutally killed them. The only time that Hugh broke his MO–that was with Alice. Hugh was on his way to the chapel to marry Alice when the FBI killed him. The FBI has long suspected that Alice may have been involved in the killings, but they could never find solid evidence to tie her to the crimes.
Her goal: Bury her past. Pretend to be someone new. Live a lie.
Alice May knows better than to trust a handsome man with a seductive smile. The last time she fell for a charmer, she learned her lover was a serial killer. Not the news a woman expects to learn on her wedding day. Since that brutal revelation, she’s sworn off men, she’s gone into hiding to get away from voracious reporters, and she hasn’t let herself get close to anyone.
But…a year has passed since her life fell apart. And it’s hard to be alone all the time. She thinks that one night, one date with Zander might remind her of what it’s like to be alive. To feel normal. The passion that burns between them is white-hot and electrifying. It’s so intense that it scares Alice. She never expected to ever want anyone that much.
He will punish her.
Their passion ignites the fury of a killer who has been watching her, waiting for her. A man who has finally decided that Alice isn’t quite so perfect. And if she’s not perfect, then Alice has to die.
When Alice’s life is threatened, Zander must reveal his true identity. The new betrayal batters at Alice’s soul, but when Zander takes her into protective custody, they are forced into close proximity. With a killer watching her every move, Alice has no choice but to trust Zander. Because her past isn’t dead, but if Alice isn’t very, very careful…she will be.
*Author’s Note: SECRET ADMIRER is a romantic suspense novella of 43,000 words. It is a complete, stand-alone story.

- Traduction personnelle:
- Sa mission: Approcher Alice May. Apprendre ses secrets. Exposer ses mensonges. Et si elle est coupable... l'enfermer.
Zander Todd, agent infiltré du FBI, passe ses journées et ses nuits à traquer les tueurs. Mais, dernièrement, il fait semblant d'être un homme différent. Il s'est frayé un chemin dans la vie de la belle mais réservée Alice May. Il est supposé lui faire avoir entièrement confiance en lui. Alice est la clé d'une affaire de meurtres en série sur laquelle le FBI travaille depuis des années. C'est aussi le suspect principal.
Alice était fiancée à Hugh Collins, l'homme qui s'est avéré être le tueur insaisissable, l'"Admirateur secret". Hugh choisissait des femmes qu'il croyait parfaites, il les séduisait, et quand elles n'étaient pas à la hauteur de son image de perfection... leur Admirateur secret les tuait brutalement. La seule fois où Hugh a cassé son mode opératoire, c'était avec Alice. Hugh allait à la chapelle pour épouser Alice quand le FBI l'a tué. Le FBI soupçonne depuis longtemps qu'Alice pourrait être impliquée dans les meurtres, mais il n'a jamais pu trouver de preuves solides pour la relier aux crimes.
Son but: Enterrer son passé. Prétendre être quelqu’un de nouveau. Vivre un mensonge.
Alice May sait qu'il ne faut pas faire confiance à un bel homme au sourire séduisant. La dernière fois qu'elle est tombée amoureuse d'un séducteur, elle a appris que son amant était un tueur en série. Pas les nouvelles qu'une femme s'attend à apprendre le jour de son mariage. Depuis cette révélation brutale, elle a renoncé aux hommes, elle s'est cachée pour échapper aux journalistes voraces, et elle ne s'est laissée approcher de personne.
Mais... un an s'est écoulé depuis que sa vie s'est effondrée. Et c'est dur d'être tout le temps seule. Elle pense qu'un soir, un rendez-vous avec Zander pourrait lui rappeler ce que c'est que d'être vivante. Se sentir normale. La passion qui brûle entre eux est brûlante et électrisante. C'est si intense que ça fait peur à Alice. Elle ne s'attendait pas à vouloir quelqu'un à ce point.
Il la punira.
Leur passion provoque la fureur d'un tueur qui l'observe, l'attend. Un homme qui a finalement décidé qu'Alice n'était pas si parfaite. Et si elle n'est pas parfaite, Alice doit mourir.
Quand la vie d'Alice est menacée, Zander doit révéler sa véritable identité. La nouvelle trahison frappe l'âme d'Alice, mais lorsque Zander l'emmène en détention préventive, ils sont contraints à la proximité. Avec un tueur surveillant chacun de ses mouvements, Alice n'a pas d'autre choix que de faire confiance à Zander. Parce que son passé n'est pas mort, mais si Alice n'est pas très, très prudente... elle le sera.
*Note de l'auteur: SECRET ADMIRER est un romantic-suspense de 43 000 mots. C'est une histoire complète et autonome.
