Sparklers by Pat Booth
A story that races from the Olympic ski slopes of Colorado to the inner councils of the Mafia, from the exclusive haunts of the rich and beautiful to the machinations of the international diamond business. Caroline Montgomery is fresh, young, stunningly attractive and heiress to an American business empire. She has one overwhelming ambition: to become the fastest woman on skis in the world. Until she meets... Miles Parmere: ex-Harrow, the Guards and the SAS. Bored, idle, a little dissolute, he's a man looking for something to happen. When they come together as lovers, theirs is a story that sexplodes across the page. But it also becomes the story of a viciously corrupt Mafia banker who will seek to destroy Miles and Caroline in a maelstrom of intrigue and violence.
