An Enemies-to-Lovers Small Town Romantic Suspense Novel
Finalist – Put Your Heart in a Book award for Romantic Suspense
Samantha Jordan will bring justice to a cold case victim if it’s the last thing she does…and it just may be. Detective Nick Ballard wants to protect her, but his buried secrets could get them both killed.
When an explosion unearths human remains—and almost lands them in the morgue—historical preservationist Samantha Jordan and San Antonio police detective Nick Ballard reluctantly team up to investigate.
Since the case is as cold as the corpse, Samantha uses the cutting-edge science of genetic genealogy to unravel the dark history of a gruesome unsolved murder and identify the body. But Nick is obstructing her at every turn. Then a targeted hit-and-run and a break-in force them to seek refuge in San Antonio’s forgotten historic sites and underground tunnels.
Despite their differences, Samantha is falling for the jaded detective. And Nick cares for her more than he should. But coming clean about his past—and the reason he’s been dragging his feet during the investigation—could end his career and put his deceased partner’s family in jeopardy.
As the final puzzle pieces fall into place, and Samantha discovers the truth, Nick will have to face his own demons and the corruption rampant in the SAPD to save her from a cunning killer.
