Overkill: Sandra Brown

A criminal walking free. A life hanging in the balance. The ultimate choice.

Zach Bridger hasn`t seen his ex-wife since their divorce. So he`s shocked to learn that not only has Rebecca been placed on life support following an assault, but he`s also still her Power of Attorney. Buckling under the responsibility, he leaves Rebecca in the care of her parents.

Years later, when Rebecca`s attacker is released from prison, savvy state prosecutor Kate is determined to see him justly punished. But Kate`s ambitious legal strategy puts Zach in yet another heart-wrenching position regarding Rebecca`s care.

While he wrestles with the decision that no one should have to make, Zach and Kate`s mutual attraction grows irresistible. Little do they know that Rebecca`s attacker has no intention of going back to prison. He`s plotting to stop them both - at any cost.
