Molten Gold — Elizabeth Lapthorne

Lieutenant Jared Teague lands unexpectedly on journalist Adelaide Baker's doorstep one day with surprising news. An Army buddy of her late uncle's was in possession of a gold bar, thought to have been a relic from Saddam Hussein's regime. He believes her Uncle Mark might have known where there were more. Equal parts outraged and curious, Adelaide senses a brilliant story, if only she can get her mind off the handsome lieutenant and onto the job at hand.

When her curiosity lands her in deep trouble, Adelaide turns to Jared for help. Together they must uncover what really went on in the desert heat all those years ago. Adelaide's lust for Jared is returned in equal measure and the two join forces both on the case and between the sheets. Soon Adelaide realizes she wants him for far longer than one story.
