Burn on the Western Slope

BLURB:
On
the ski slopes of Montana, deception turns deadly and seduction becomes more
hypnotic than jewels.
Reagan
McKinney is on a mission to discover more about a deceased uncle who mysteriously
left her a sizable inheritance, a condo in the mountains, and a stash of stolen
jewels. With both her graphic design
career and her love life in shambles, the opportunity to begin a new life
couldn’t have come at a better time.
When she becomes involved with the sexy FBI agent next door, she finds
her struggle is not only to keep her heart intact, but her life.
Grief
stricken after an undercover investigation ends in the tragic death of his
partner, FBI Agent Garret Chambers goes home to find solace in the arms of his
mountain home. That is, until his boss
assigns him to investigate the spirited brunette staying in the condo next
door. He is assigned to investigate
Reagan’s involvement with a large jewel fencing organization, but his investigation
becomes comprised when his attraction to her heats up. Will his discovery destroy everything he has
come to love, including Reagan?

EXCERPTS:
“Wait,” he
said, settling his hand over hers. He didn’t know what he would say to keep her
here, didn’t know if he should kiss her again. Had he insulted her in some way?
“Do you have a boyfriend back home?” he asked. A stupid question at a time like
this, but he had to know. For Buchanan, who would call sometime tonight, and
for himself.
Silence
stretched among them. He fought to soften his breathing, but his heart only
pounded harder as he tried to convince himself she was not his to possess.
When she
looked at him, dead in the eye, she didn’t flicker. The strength she’d shown on
the mountain today, pushing herself when most women would have cried and
complained, and the snappy comeback with Tanner made Garret realize she was the
kind of woman who could stand up to a man like Javier Mass. The type of woman
Javier—or Nelson, either one—would prize. Garret’s world capsized.
Shaking her
hand from his, she said, “Shouldn’t you have asked me that before you kissed
me?”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
During my
senior year in high school, I was dubbed most likely to write a novel because I
always had my nose stuck in a book. I
would hide my romance novels under my history book until my teacher called me
out on it. Writing has been my dream
ever since my mother read Brer Rabbit to my sister and me so often that we were
able to recite it back to each other before actually learning to read. I love reading about the adventure of love,
and getting involved in the legal field developed my love of suspense. I
believe love is a mystery that most people have trouble resolving. While I don’t expect we’ll ever solve that
mystery, I love to read and write about characters who work to solve their
love’s mystery. See more about me at my
