Elizabeth Bretton has made peace with her life, or so she
says. Widowed without children and then turned into a
vampire (making her dreams of having children impossible),
Elizabeth is content living in Broken Heart, a
town full of paranormal beings. Elizabeth figures she's seen
it all, and there's not a whole lot out there to be scared
of; that is, until she starts hearing voices and a vengeful
ghost attacks her. Saved by an enigmatic stranger when she's
out in the woods during a storm digging up buried bones,
Elizabeth soon finds herself in the middle of a 150-year-old
mystery regarding the town. Now if only she could get her
mind off her savior long enough to figure it out.
Tezozomoc "Tez" Abraham Elvis Jones is a were-jaguar who
saves Elizabeth. Invited to Broken Heart by the alpha of the
were-cats, Tez is a homicide detective who finds himself
joining forces with Elizabeth to figure out what is going on
with the people in town. All the happy couples that
Elizabeth used to secretly envy are now fighting and even
attempting to murder each other. With Tez by her side,
flirting outrageously with her with every breath, Elizabeth
must discover the towns secret before it rips apart every
happy couple in Broken Heart; all while trying to determine
if she and a certain were-jaguar could have a happily ever
after for themselves.
CROSS YOUR HEART, by Michele Bardsley, is another grab you
by the throat, laugh-out-loud addition to the Broken Heart
series. The banter between Tez and Elizabeth isn't just
funny, it's hot. I loved their interactions. Elizabeth
is so proper and Tez is everything she's not. They make a
fantastic pair. The mystery surrounding the town of Broken
Heart adds a lot to the story, as well. We finally get to
learn how the town came by its name and, along with it, some
information about the founding families. If you thought the
inhabitants of Broken Heart were up against some crazy evil
before, you haven't seen anything yet. Whether you're
already a fan or new to the town of Broken Heart, you will
not be disappointed with this action-packed, witty story
that'll keep you engrossed in the small town to the point
you'll want to visit.
After the death of her husband-and her dreams of
motherhood-Elizabeth Bretton returned to the family estate
in Broken Heart, Oklahoma. Little did she know she would
also give up her life as the Silverstone heiress.
But escaping the past isn't that easy-especially with a
vengeful ghost trying to kill her, a 150-year-old mystery to
solve, and an outrageously hot were-jaguar named "Tez"
trying to get into her boudoir...
