HIGH TIDE by Jude Deveraux

A rising star at a Manhattan corporation, Fiona Burkenwalter has a New Yorker's disdain for anywhere by the city's bustling streets. So she is more than a little put out when her boss sends her on a detour from the executive fast-track to handle a new account in the Florida Everglades.

But from the moment she steps off the plane, Fiona is in more trouble than she can handle. Lost in a maze of intrigue, she soon finds herself the prime suspect for a gruesome murder with the ruggedly handsome Ace Montgomery as her assumed accomplice. By the time they discover that they have unknowingly inherited the murder victim's vast fortune they are already Florida's most wanted couple.

Their only hope lies in a desperate attempt to prove their innocence by disentangling their connection to the deadly inheritance. As they shed new light on long-buried secrets, an irresistible chemistry flares and Fiona finds it hard to resist the legendary Montgomery charm. Now with their lives and hearts on the line, they have everything to lose in their search for a killer.
