As a woman cleans a funeral home, a corpse leaps off the embalming table. So begins a horror romance featuring Summer McAfee, who runs her own janitorial business. The corpse turns out to be Steve Calhoun, a detective on the run from crooked cops and drug dealers, so badly beaten he resembles a monster. Scalpel in hand, he threatens to cut Summer's throat, ties her with her bra and abducts her. It's the start of a wild adventure in the course of which Summer will fall in love with the man she calls Frankenstein. By the author of This Side of Heaven.

Work Description
WAS HE DEAD, OR...
The nude male body an the embalming table, battered beyond recognition. Gingerly, Summer McAfee, chairwoman, CEO, and sole employee of Daisy Fresh cleaning service reached out to touch an arm to reassure herself that she hadn't just seen the corpse move. Suddenly, shockingly, her hand was in the viselike grip of a man very much alive and desperate enough to take her captive on a no-holds-barred run from cops, killers, and his own decidedly complicated past....
Summer's former life as a New York lingerie model had gone south with her marriage, leaving her, at thirty-six, single and back home in Tennessee, on her hands and knees scrubbing other people's bathrooms. But the drab present vanishes in a flash as she's forced to flee into the Tennessee wilds with the stranger she calls Frankenstein, first as his captive, then his companion, as they run from enemies determined to destroy them both-straight into a raging passion that could only he the last laugh of fate....
