Risking the Detective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798590470938)

She was swindled, ruined, and left for dead. She will take back her life and her pride -- but she will never fall in love again.

Madeline Castleton was left a fool once, but she refuses to allow it to happen again. And so when she needs help, she reaches out to a man who has proven his trustworthiness -- Bow Street detective Drake.

Drake, however, does not have the time nor the inclination to look into the foolish imaginings of a woman who is just afraid of her shadow. Her father left the stone company in her hands, but perhaps they are simply less than capable. He has his own concerns -- namely, following a clue that just might help him solve his parents' murders.

But when one misfortune after another befall Madeline and Castleton Stone, Drake begins to realize that she just might be right, and he finds that he cannot say no -- to her offer of payment nor to the woman herself. The more time the two of them spend together, the harder it is for them to deny that "never' might not be as absolute as they thought.

This Regency romance contains some steamy content.
