Romance Suspense

Claudia Cruz is grateful for her current profession as a highly trained operative recovering stolen art for Ben Sinclair and Avalon. The job allows her the freedom she didn't have when she was a cop in Dallas; the ability to catch a thief by any means necessary. Unfortunately, she also finds herself working the same cases as the FBI's Art Theft Program with agents like Special Agent Vincent Deluca, who don't like the fact she doesn't have to work within the law. As Claudia strolls into her latest job and sees Agent Deluca, she is unable to control the urge to use her forbidden talents to firmly place herself in the middle of his case. If he wants her help, or better yet Avalon's resources, he will have to look the other way. Special Agent Vincent Deluca can't believe his eyes when the sassy Claudia Cruz waltzes in on his job with a smirk and killer legs. As a member of law enforcement, the law is absolute, so when free agents like the beautiful Ms. Cruz do not have to work within those boundaries, situations can become extremely dangerous. He had the irritating pleasure of butting heads with her on a previous case, so he just sits back and watches her work, figuring she won't get any further than he has on the case. As the investigation progresses, the hunt to find the thieves becomes more dangerous. The FBI and Avalon must decide quickly to either run into each other wasting time or combine resources, as they ignore the sparks flying between the leads on the case. HER LAST CHANCE is the second book in this series that not only stands on its own but continues an exciting plot with fun and witty characters that carry you page-to-page. A great read!

SUMMARY

A WOMAN WHO'S AS TOUGH AS IT GETS Compelled to leave the Dallas police force after killing a convicted rapist in a dark alley, tough and sexy Claudia Cruz becomes an operative with Avalon, a clandestine organization of mercenaries who recover stolen art. But her new career choice pits her against the darkly intense FBI agent Vincent DeLuca, who is determined that this time, Avalon is not going to beat out the Feds. A MAN WHO'S HER MATCH AND MORE While Claudia seethes about this irritating man who gives as good as he gets, Vincent is discovering there's a fine line between love and hate. And though Claudia is willing to use their crazy-hot attraction to achieve her goals, she never intended they'd end up in bed together. She's always lived on the edge and flirted with danger...but this time the worst danger may be to her heart.
