4 Stars

Insurance investigator, Kit Colfax is on the trail of jewel thief Remy Beaulieux when she inadvertently arrests his cousin, Simon “Beau” Beaulieux who just happens to be the Sheriff of a small Louisiana parish. Determined to get to the bottom of his cousin’s case and protect his family name, Beau convinces Kit that they should work together, but she is wary of controlling and manipulative men and has no intention of losing her head over one.

An engaging romance with a touch of mystery.

Kit and Beau’s repartee is witty and amusing, and their chemistry is off the charts. That said, Kit’s insecurities with regard to men are overdone, especially considering that Beau is nothing like her former boyfriend.

Beau is a typical alpha male with a gorgeous Southern drawl to boot. He is reminiscent of the hero in my favorite Karen Robards book, Ghost Moon, so it was easy for him to worm his way into my heart.

The minor suspense plot could have been better developed, but the climax and resolution are exciting.

All in all, not at all bad for a debut book and I look forward to reading the sequel. ( )

Decent book. Easy to read and was amusing as well. I didn't get very caught up in it as I did not like the back and forth between the two characters. I would have enjoyed it more if the romance aspect had not been the main focus of the book. ( )

DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: Kit Colfax is a sassy insurance investigator who is out to catch herself a suave Southern jewel thief...any way she can. Her career depends on it. But she’s in for the surprise of her life when her sting operation instead mistakenly snares handsome chief of police Simon “Beau” Beaulieux.

Lord have mercy, the man's deep, sexy voice evokes fantasies of smooth satin sheets on hot afternoons, dripping with the sweet scent of honeysuckle and the taste of icy mint juleps. Kit does her best to resist the tempting Louisiana aristocrat. But a series of disasters—certainly not his heated kisses!—have her chasing Beau from Las Vegas to San Diego to the bayous of his stately antebellum plantation. There, wrapped in the embrace of sultry Southern nights, she finds herself hopelessly caught in the sensual web of his passion. But will the demands of their jobs and the conflicting bonds of old family loyalties spell disaster for the future of their blossoming love? ( )

Trapped Amid Duty and Desire…
Simon exuded animal emotion, from his eyes to his broad shoulders. Kit understood the chief of police generally got what he wanted, but to safeguard her future she couldn’t let him have his way…or her.

Kit wanted to put Simon’s cousin behind bars. He wanted to stop her. Familiarity had shown Kit how men of influence operated… and manipulated. Well, not her. Not this time. Okay, so Simon made her feel like she never had before. He made her want to trust him, as he trusted his cousin’s innocence. Yet, was that an aficionado talking, or a swindler intent on protecting his family?

This has to be one of the most sizzling books around. The embers between Kit and Simon scorch throughout the whole story, turning it into a genuine page turner. Well-constructed and planned, the story is filled with imagination by a writer who displays a remarkable ability to tell fun stories. ( )
