But you can never leave your past behind, and Dylan’s day of reckoning has arrived. His long, lost past is headed straight at him at 100 miles per hour in a Porsche 718 Cayman – and there isn’t anybody who can stop it. __

"One of THE most breathtaking and phenomenal adventure tales to come along in years! [Tara Janzen] has created an instant adventure classic...get your hands on a copy of this book today!" -- Jill M. Smith RT Book ReviewsWINNER - Best Romantic Suspense 2002 RTA LOST WORLDIn the heart of the rain forest lies a prize Dr. Annie Parrish is willing to risk her life for, a legendary orchid that will put her name in the history books - if she can find it. With her resources dwindling and time running out, only one man comes cheap enough and is skilled enough to take her deeper into the savage reaches of the Great Green Hell known as the Amazon.A ROGUE SCIENTISTWilliam Sanchez Travers has macaw feathers tied in his hair, a week’s worth of beard, and a shaman’s crystal hanging around his neck, convincing Annie that even the wildest stories she’s heard about him don’t tell the tale. A Harvard-trained botanist, the once world-renowned professor lost his reputation – and some say his mind – when he vanished from his camp on the Rio Cauaburi and disappeared for a year in the forest. Now he’s back, in a seedy waterfront bar with a beer in his hand and a mulatto woman doing the lambada on his lap – and against every ounce of common sense she has, Annie’s about to make him a deal. ONCE THEIR JOURNEY BEGINS, THERE’S NO TURNING BACK The last thing Will needs is a woman whose secrets run as deep and dark as his own. A renegade in her own right, the legendary Amazon Annie is a magnet for trouble – and he’s already got plenty. He’s out to destroy a devil named Corisco Vargas, before the twisted army major can unleash his nightmarish forces on the whole of the Amazon. Trapped between a shaman’s mystical visions and the violence of the real world, their journey quickly becomes one of desperate danger. But which force will rule their fate – justice, vengeance, or a power as potent and seductive as the Amazon itself?RIVER OF EDEN originally published by Bantam Books 2002From Library JournalIt doesn't matter how weird the rumors are as to why defrocked, Harvard-trained ethnobotanist William Sanchez Travers has fallen from grace and into the mystical clutches of the Amazon rainforest. Dr. Annie Parrish needs him to take her in his boat up the Rio Negro to Santa Maria. She can't afford to be choosy, either: "Amazon Annie" doesn't have such a pristine reputation herself. But each of them has a dangerous goal, and this trip might very well turn out to be their last. With her smart, sassy dialog and witty style, reminiscent of Romancing the Stone, McReynolds shows that high adventure doesn't get much better than this.

From the Inside FlapBad-boy scientist Will Travers may have an Ivy League mind but he?s got the spirit of the jungle in his heart and the kiss of the Amazon on his body.River of EdenWith his sun-bronzed skin, a week?s worth of beard, and a shaman?s crystal around his neck, Will Sanchez Travers looked more like a man mothers warned their daughters about than a Harvard-trained ethnobotanist. And even if only half the rumors about him were true, Dr. Annie Parrish figured she was in trouble. Still, she needed the rogue scientist to ferry her upriver in search of a prize so extraordinary, it would make her reputation?if it didn?t get her killed first.When he?d reluctantly agreed to take the legendary Amazon Annie deep into the Brazilian rain forest, Will expected a woman warrior, not a blond ragamuffin renegade whose secrets ran darker than he could have imagined. But once the journey begins, there will be no turning back as they enter territory?of the wilderness and the heart?as dangerous as it is beautiful, desperate to stop a twisted destroyer of worlds before his nightmarish fantasy becomes horribly real. Amid sorcery, violence, and mystical visions, which will be the victor?the yearning for vengeance, or a power as potent and seductive as the heart of a singular, magical orchid?
