About this book

Book Summary

A year after the heart transplant that saved him from certain death, thirty-four year-old Ryan Perry has never felt better. Business is good at his Internet company, and he hopes to reconcile with the girlfriend who inexplicably broke things off. But someone is out there who intends to collect on a prior claim to the one thing that made it all possible...

It begins with a piece of jewelry in the mail, a heart pendant, without a return address. Then a box of little valentine candy hearts arrives. A graphic heart surgery video supplants the advertising demo Ryan is watching with a chilling message: Your heart belongs to me. The harassment escalates and Ryan is made to understand that all he values will be taken from him. And as every facet of his life comes under siege, he begins to glimpse a mysterious woman stalking him…a woman who looks just like the twenty-eight-year-old donor of the heart beating steadily within his own chest.

She wants it back.
