LOVE
ACTS - DEA DEA agent Beth Belfrey was all set to prove that you can go home again, but instead of impressing Will Devlin - the best thing she remembered from Nohoken, CT - with her success, she ended up sending him to jail. Then he turned police informant and the two of them were assigned to feign an undercover romance to bring a drug lord to justice. Suddenly everything Beth thought she knew about love - and Will - was turned completely upside down.
THE
FATED HEART - FBI FBI Agent John Scott worked hard to distance himself from the awkward teen he’d once been. Now he’s been assigned to protect corporate whistle-blower Gretchen Zimmerman from the results of her own good deed. The problem for John … they’ve been thrown together again. Gretchen doesn’t recognize him, while he remembers her and his own teenage crush. * * * * * * Happy reading! |
