When her best friend goes missing...

As the clock runs down, their attraction deepens as they work long hours. Cal is committed to finding the truth for Jaslene, though it may wind up deadly for them both.

Text to speech
“Not all marriages fail.”
“They say fifty percent fail, but I think that number is closer to eighty.”
Jaslene put her forefinger on his chest. “Maybe you should try to get past your divorce.”
Cal was about to slide his arm around her and give her a kiss she wouldn’t forget. “I am past it.”
“No, you aren’t. You think every woman is as untrustworthy as your ex.”
“Not every woman.” Only the ones who cheated. He left that unspoken.
Rising up onto her toes, she said in a husky tone, “I didn’t cheat.”
He wasn’t sure if she deliberately encouraged him or if her attraction led her, but he didn’t question. He just slid his arm around her waist, pulled her against him and kissed her.
He felt her stiffen and heard her sharp indrawn breath. But if she felt the same fire as him, she’d go with him on this expedition. Sure enough, she relaxed against him and moved her lips with his.

Falling for a man jaded by love can be scary even in real life, but in fiction it makes for great conflict. Nobody wants to get hurt and a wall of protection around a man’s heart can be a challenge to break through. Jaslene breaks through Cal’s with finesse in Cold Case Manhunt. She’s the determined friend of a missing woman who is thrown together with the detective helping her solve the case.
I enjoyed writing this book so much because the winning over of hearts was fueled by an intense search for a killer. I hope you share the wonder.
