She'd never seen a dead man before, much less three. Three
police officers, still in uniform, all with a bullet in the
back of their head, lay in front of her. As a reporter for
the Atlanta Observer, Robin Stuart has a talent for getting
people to say more than they mean to say and she knows how
to listen. And listening is the key between a good reporter
and a great one. Following a near-fatal car accident and a
year's absence, doing a great job on this story could send
her back into action. Robin is a woman obsessed, a woman
determined.
Ben Taylor has been following the story. He knows that no
one kills three policemen unless there's a very good
reason. Unfortunately, as yet, there's no jurisdictional
reason for the FBI to become involved. Working for the FBI
is Ben's life and it's torture for him to wait for a
personal invitation into the investigation. There might be
a connection to one of the local law enforcement agencies
and the three policemen might have stumbled onto something
very big, so Ben is told to discreetly sniff around.
Robin is given a tip by a good source who's terrified he'll
be next in line for execution if his name is leaked. He's
trusted Robin with his life, a trust she can't betray, even
if it means putting her own life in jeopardy. But, this
story, the biggest in her career, could bring down a major
crime organization and provide justice for three slain
police officers.
Ben can't keep his eyes off this strong, beautiful and
courageous woman he continues running into. He's made no
time for a personal life, but Robin starts him thinking
differently. As they work together through the hazy, life
threatening investigation, they know they must keep each
other safe no matter what the cost. And the cost could be
great.
Ms. Potter has gifted us with yet another fast-paced,
chilling, adrenaline rush of a suspense thriller. Follow
her tangled web of clues through a roller coaster ride of
fear and deception with strong and passionate characters
who will steal your heart. TEMPTING THE DEVIL kicks up the
notch of suspense to fever pitch. It has everything a great
thriller should and is a book that should not be missed.
As a journalist, Robin Stuart once swore never to reveal
her source. As an FBI agent, Ben Taylor once swore never
to let reporters mess with justice. But they also swore
never to let love get in the way of their careers—and some
oaths are meant to be broken.
When three policemen are murdered, Ben is sure the cop-
killers are linked to Hydra, the Southern Mafia he’s been
keeping tabs on—and he’s not about to let Robin stick her
nose where it doesn’t belong. Then Robin gets vital
information from a Deep Throat afraid for his life. Now,
both sides of the law want her to out her source—and the
Hydra wants her dead. But even though the two have butted
heads more than once, chemistry crackles between Ben and
Robin. And as their desire grows stronger, it makes them
more vulnerable to the danger swirling around them…
