Savannah Smith is entranced with the sexy voice to wile away the lonely hours of the night. She is looking at her thirty first birthday and feeling sad and lonely that she has no great love in her life and no family. What she does have is a high-powered position as a lawyer with the state attorney general’s office.

Her twin sister, Susan, also listens to Jared Snow in the early hours. Since her husband left her a year ago, she drinks too much, envies her sister and feels sorry for herself.

Megan Vandermeer is a good friend of both Savannah and Susan. She fell in love and married a wealthy older man, Will, and expected an easy life of luxury but instead, her husband is having financial problems and hanging on to his wealthy façade by a thread.

Will arrives at the attorney general’s office in a dither, telling them that Megan has been kidnapped and that he has received a ransom note demanding three million dollars. Because he is insured, he is able to pay the kidnapper but he is frantic that his wife will not be returned alive. He refuses to go to the police and instead asks for help from his friends. Savannah agrees to help and calls in two policemen-friends, Sam and Hank, to help look for clues and figure how to pay the ransom. When Susan and Sam make eye contact, the air sizzles between them.

Savannah is intrigued with the note from the kidnapper because the wording is very much what is used on the radio show they all listen to. She meets Jared Snow and finds him impossibly handsome and sexy.

Although HEART OF THE NIGHT is suspenseful, it is basically a romance. Jared and Sam are both wonderful characters, warm, trustworthy, handsome, sexy – wow!! The book is sizzling and steamy hot. Although Susan has a few problems, the reader soon realizes that she is a woman in crisis and needs to find her way through her unhappiness while her twin, Savannah, always seems to know the right way. Sibling rivalries are unveiled as the two work out their problems with each other. Megan is also a woman with serious problems, yearning for an easier and more comfortable life and instead, finding concerns and terrible trauma turning her life upside-down. As the hunt goes on to find the kidnapper, problems are being worked out in the lives of the three friends.
