Oh yeah!

Street wise Cher Dawson and rich Luc Broussard were engaged while attending Stanford University. While Luc was taking his final exam, his mother paid Cher a nasty visit. Victoria Broussard blackmailed Cher into disappearing from Luc's life, to save her foster father. Cher did not even get to say good-bye. Luc returned from class to hear his mother say she had caught Cher in bed with another man. Fourteen years later...(San Francisco)Luc watched his mother's murderer walk out of the courtroom as a free man! Luc was possitive young Edward Compton had married Victoria for money and then had her killed. The only good thing was that the money was Luc's, not Victoria's, and Compton received nothing for his trouble. Since Compton could not be tried twice, Luc would put him behind bars for something else. The [plan] had been so smoothly carried out that Luc was sure Compton and his sister, Helen Ramsey, had pulled it off before. So Luc went to Phoenix to get the best person for the job! Lieutenant Cher Dawson was head of Phoenix Police Department's Cold Case Unit and had a high success rate. She did NOT take kindly to Luc reappearing in her life, throwing money at Commissioner Sanchez, and forcing Cher to drop everything to investigate Compton. Not only did Cher hate being considered Luc's servant, but she feared he would learn he had a thirteen year old daughter that he knew nothing about! ... The writing team of J.M. Jeffries seems to get better with each book that comes out! This one will go on my "keeper shelf" to be read again. Cher is a strong character that readers will love instantly and the daughter, Miranda, is a pistol! I enjoyed every action filled second and every romantic (and stress filled) scene!

One Great Romance!!!!

This is the first J.M. Jeffries' book I've ever read. If this is a sample of her writing I'm going to read more. The writing was exceptional. The characters were strong and real. The mystery was tight and very well thought out. And the romance was HOT!!!!!!!!!!!! I look forward to more books from this talented voice in romance.
