Temptation at the Lake

It was supposed to be two months of recuperation, sunshine, clean air, and physical therapy. What I didn't count on was him. He changed everything.

Being a woman on the force was tough enough before Jordan caught a bullet in the leg taking down a bad guy. Then, her good old boy boss unfairly laid the blame for the public shootout at her feet. With the news jackals after her, she left the big city to recuperate. To escape her captain she has two months to pass the physical fitness test in time to interview for the opening in the major crimes unit.

The recommended physical therapist in Clear Lake is tattooed and incredibly hot. The idea of two months of his hands on her is too good to believe. Then, she learns he is an ex-con and almost bolts.

Being framed by the police chief and two years in prison has hardened Casey. When the uppity female detective arrives, he plans to make her miserable. He would prefer to even the score with the chief, but for now, torturing Jordan for being a cop would do.

Dating a criminal is forbidden. That’s an unwritten rule every cop knows.

But, grueling days lead to temptation, and impossible-to-forget nights soon follow. For a glorious few weeks life is full of new possibilities.

When Casey becomes a suspect in the disappearance of the police chief’s nephew, helping him could threaten her career. Not helping could extinguish the one spark of hope in her life.
