At the Wildcat Bluff Fire-Rescue Station . . . Kent Duval’s mind whirled as he tried to reconcile his teenage love with the young widow and mother standing before him. Lauren Sheridan had the same honey-blond hair, chocolate-brown eyes, and to-die-for body that had distracted him from his studies in high school. Now she was so much more. And every last bit of her was setting him ablaze in a way he hadn’t felt in a long time. To cool down, he turned his thoughts to the Blue Norther that had dumped ice and snow all over Wildcat Bluff County last Christmas Eve, but his body was having none of it. Spring was coming on strong and Lauren was standing before him, so there was no getting around the earthly renewal of the birds and the bees. Cold weather was giving way to that perfect time of year when a young man’s fancy turned to—Lauren. He resisted the urge to head down a path that was dangerous to his heart. He’d thought for years that what they’d had between them was well and truly done and gone, nothing but raging teenage hormones. Now he wasn’t so sure. About the time…

I must like sitting on the edge of my seat more than lounging in a recliner, because suspense has always been my favorite genre. It doesn’t matter to me if it comes dressed up like science fiction or historic drama, what I crave are stories that keep me guessing, where the main characters always seem to be in peril. You might think that means the heroine is in danger, but I actually like it even more if the hero is the one whose life is on the line. Put an adorable boy in threat of losing his life or of losing the one he loves, and I’m all in. In fact, most of my favorite TV shows and movies have that exact premise. Here’s a list of some of them and why I love them. Jason Behr playing Max Evans, Roswell It doesn’t get much better than an alien boy willing to risk exposing himself to save the girl he loves. From the first episode, Max shows he’s head over alien-heels for earthling Liz, sometimes forgetting this romance could endanger his best friend and sister, who are also aliens. The smoldering looks given by Behr to Shiri Appleby (Liz) seemed…
