Private investigator Rick Carson is sent to the Price
estate to investigate the death of Jordan Price's husband,
Senator Daniel Price. Although her circle of family and
friends insists that Jordan couldn't possibly be a
murdered, Rick is inclined to think otherwise. Especially
when he discovers that Jordan has a history of unusual
deaths in her past.
He doesn't want to like her, much less trust her. But
against his better instincts, he finds himself drawn to
her.
And her to him. Jordan Price would like this all to go
away. She insists she's innocent of her husband's death,
even when uncovered information begins to suggest
otherwise. The last thing she wants is an investigation
but once her brother-in-law contacts the Powell agency,
it's best if she goes along. It doesn't help that she is
attracted to the very man who is looking to nail her for
murder.
Beverly Barton keeps the reader guessing to the end, and
not only guessing but changing the most likely suspect.
Plot twists and red herrings come with rapid fire, all as
the underlying romantic tension between Jordan and Rick
escalates.
A fun, meaty romantic suspense, with loads of potential
suspects and a plot that thickens when they too begin to
disappear. Then, there's the subplot of Griffin Powell
and his unusual friends, that makes you wish the next book
with a Griffin Agency thread were on shelves now.
COLD HEARTED is a hot-blooded and warm-hearted read.
Hired by the Powell Agency to investigate Senator Dan
Price’s death, Rick Carson can see at once why people would
believe his widow, Jordan Price, incapable of cold-blooded
murder. Slender, pale, and elegant, she stands by her late
husband’s graveside exuding sweet vulnerability.
The closer Rick gets to the chilling truth, the more
dangerous the game of cat-and mouse becomes. The targets
are changing, and suddenly, nothing and no one is safe. If
Jordan is as innocent as she claims, Rick may have placed
her in a killer’s crosshairs. And if she’s guilty, he’ll
never live to regret it…
