Summary

Soldier of Fortune (originally published in January 1985)
For Gabby Darwin, working as a paralegal for one of the most famous criminal lawyers in Chicago was a thankless job. J.D. was demanding, and never gave Gabby a second thought—until circumstances took them on a secret mission to Central America to track down terrorist kidnappers. There she saw a whole new side to her boss—he was dangerous and sexy, with a mercenary past to boot. And he seemed to be looking at her with new eyes, too. Now the romance that she'd always fantasized about was fast becoming a reality.
