Danny Taggart is the biggest badass of all the Gemini Men. And there’s only one thing a woman can do with a man this hot, hard, and ready for action….
He’s the oldest of the three Taggart brothers. And the boldest. Tall, dark and rippling with muscle, Danny Taggart takes no prisoners. But when his latest case puts him up close and personal with the woman who once left him raw and aching, he’s shell-shocked. Caroline Medford is still hotter than hell. But she’s also got her pretty grip on the truths that have shaped him into the soul-ravaged warrior he is today. Burned once, Danny’s plan is to satisfy his craving for Caroline and walk away. Yet once he has her warm and willing beneath him, he can’t get deep enough—or close enough. Not even when danger threatens to destroy everything he’s ever fought for. Including the only woman he’s ever loved…

Danny, thank you for agreeing to an interview today on my blog.
No problem. But can we make this quick? I still have to do my daily twelve mile run before I go to the office this morning.
Can you tell readers a little bit about yourself?
Not that much to tell. I’m thirty five, I live in northern california. After I got out of the military (editor’s note – Danny won’t ever talk much about it, but he was a Green Beret) I started Gemini Securities, a private investigation and corporate and personal security firm with my younger brothers, Derek and Ethan. On a personal note, I recently got, uh, reacquainted with my high school girlfriend and now we’re engaged.
What have you been up to since we last saw you in Derek’s story, Kept?
I’ve been busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest, I’ll tell you that. Between our workload and some pretty intense personal and family drama, it’s been crazy around here.
Can you tell us about this someone special you that met…Caroline?
Actually, Caroline and I go way back. We started dating in high school, stayed together while I went to West Point and started my military career. Then, we had kind of a falling out…well, I’ll be honest, I acted like an asshole and drove her away. Lucky for me, some crazy circumstances brought us back together. We didn’t have it easy, but if someone hadn’t wanted to frame Caroline for her husband’s murder and then try to kill her, we might never have gotten back together.
I understand you know Jami Alden and that she actually wrote your story Unleashed for publication. What was it like working with her?
It was great although she’s really high strung, always stressed about whether or not everything was coming out exactly right. Works like a dog though, and I have nothing but respect for that.
Have you read Unleashed yet? What did you think of it?
I haven’t. I mean, really, I lived it – and while there are some great memories, there’s a lot of other stuff – like watching a psychopath hold a gun to Caroline’s head – that I’d rather not relive.
If Unleashed was made into a movie, which actor do you see portraying you, Caroline?
I’m terrible at this. I never know who anyone is. But if I had to choose, I’d say for me, maybe Eric Bana from Blackhawk Down, or Gerard Butler in his 300 ripped phase. For Caroline, a younger Catherine Zeta Jones, say, in her Zorro era.
How are your brothers, Ethan & Derek?
They’re doing great, though it’s hard as hell to get them to focus on work these days, what with all the wedding planning that seems to be going on. Ethan and Toni are set for this spring, and Derek and Alyssa… well that’s top secret. Last thing we need is the paparazzi getting wind of the details.
Will readers see any of you or your brothers in the future?
We’re planning to lay low for the time being. Like I said, there’s work to do, weddings to be planned, and in my and Caroline’s case, a baby to make as soon as is humanly possible. So unless you want to read about bridal showers and baby planning, I think we’ll stay out of the limelight for a while here.
Can either of you tell us something about Jami that readers may not know?
I don’t know that it’s any secret, but she wrote my story she subsisted almost entirely on a diet of coffee, red wine, and scraps from her kids’ plates. Who knew you could survive eating pizza off the floor and discarded fish stick bits?
Is there anything you would like to ask the readers?
I want to know if they want to see any more Gemini stories. And if so, whose?
