I won’t go much further with the plot since I don’t want to give away too much of the twists and turns. When she comes to interview him, Marc takes her hostage.

Marc is Marc Hunter – Hunt – the former bad boy and Sophie’s first lover. Sophie arranges to interview Marc in the hopes that he can help her find Megan. She plans to follow Megan and her baby as they go thorough a half-way program, but before she even begins the program, Megan runs away with her baby.ĭuring the interviews for the articles, Megan told Sophie about her brother, Marc, who is serving a life term for killing a DEA agent. Sophie has been with Megan as she gave birth to a daughter, and struggled to get off drugs. Sophie has been writing a series of articles about the plight of women in prison and she’s focused on Megan Rawlings, a woman incarcerated for drug possession. She’s had her share of relationships, but none of them have been as sweet as her one experience with Hunt and she still thinks of him from time to time. Twelve years later, Sophie has become an investigative journalist. They talk, Sophie gives Hunt her virginity and tells him to reach for the stars, then watches him drive off into the night. One night Sophie takes a wrong turn Hunt rescues her from a gang of druggies.

Hunt is intelligent, but the teachers look down on him, and Sophie feels that it is unfair to blame him for his mother’s sins. The boy’s name is Hunt and he is handsome and smoldering, with a bad reputation in town because of his mother’s addiction to booze and drugs. Sophie Alton is a good girl and a good student, and like many good girls, she is fascinated by a bad boy. The plot is a complex, fast moving one that, in the hands of an unskilled writer, could have been totally unbelievable, but Pamela Clare sets up the situation and characters so well that it all makes perfect sense. Unlawful Contact is part of a series, but it stands alone as a complete story.
