The Shadow of the Hawk
Julie Miller

A Dangerous Field Trip…

Sarah McCormick had one last shot at adventure. Resigned to the life of a spinster after a disastrous love affair, the shy school teacher planned to lead five teenage girls to the jungles of Isla Tenebrosa. There, amidst the ruins of an ancient civilization, they would learn something about history, archaeology and perhaps even about themselves. But a mountain of a man upset her plans—a handsome Native American who claimed she and her students would be in peril on the mysterious island. And when the virile former Marine invited himself on the trip and swore to protect them, Sarah wondered which was in greater jeopardy—her body or her heart.

As mystifying as the island itself, Hawk had seen a vision of the brainy schoolmarm and believed their fates were intertwined. Although tempted to school Sarah’s lithe, surprisingly lush body in lessons of passion, he could sense the evil lurking amongst the jungle ruins. Still, the bond between them was undeniable. As death closed in on them, Hawk used every skill he possessed to keep Sarah and her students alive. But he quickly learned that Sarah herself, that the power of her sweet kisses and brave heart, might be the only thing that could save them all and finally bring this noble warrior home.
