On the morning of her wedding to Calder Hart, amateur
sleuth Francesca Cahill is lured away to a private viewing
of a protrait that could destroy her entire family: the
nude Hart commissioned of her. Her desperate quest to
recover the scandalous portrait leads her into a dangerous
trap with no way to escape - until it's too late. And when
Francesca finally arrives at the church, it's vacant. She
has unintentionally jilted Hart at the alter.
When Hart tells her their estrangement is for the best,
Francesca is devastated. With a blackmailer intent on
destroying her reputation, Francesca turns to Rick Brag,
the city's powerful police commissioner. Together they
scour the sordid streets of lower Manhattan, following a
deliberately laid trail of clues in a race against the
clock. And once it becomes clear that Bragg's marriage is
failing, Francesca must war with her feelings for him,
battle Hart's jealousy and escape a killer - all as she
fights to win Hart back. But sometimes, passion just cannot
be denied...
I love this series and I am so glad that Brenda Joyce is continuing it. Plan on staying up late to finish. (Faye McMichael 3:44pm December 27, 2010)
Brenda Joyce is the bestselling author of thirty-four novels and four novellas. She is the author of the critically acclaimed “Deadly” series which is set in turn of the century New York and features amateur sleuth Francesca Cahill. I also love these series. Thanks for the wonderful review. I really enjoy it. (Alice Simson 4:09am March 2, 2011)
