Janet Aims is finally getting rid of the last remembrance
of her marriage to Banner Westfield. This necklace is just
too ugly to wear anyway. And who wants to keep something
that your drug-running, money-laundering ex gave you? She
and her best friend Ellie visit the most prestigious
jewelry store in town that handles estate jewelry. Along
with this ugly necklace, she is also getting rid of her
engagement and wedding rings. She knows they cost a small
fortune and just wants a little redemption.
When the police show up at her door the next day, Janet
cannot believe what she is hearing. The necklace belongs to
a museum in Germany and was stolen over 200 years ago. It
is actually over 400 years old! There were also four other
pieces in the jewelry set. The police want to know where
the rest of the pieces are. So does Janet! When they ask
her to come down to the station for questioning, she calls
the only person she can think of who might be able to help
her.
Rocky Hernandez is quite a surprise to Janet when he walks
into the police station wearing a three-piece suit, looking
way too good. He's a friend and business partner with
Ellie, and, oh yes, just happened to meet Ellie's husband,
Jack, when they were in prison together. He's straight now,
was actually framed, and looking oh so dangerous!
Follow this romantic escapade as Janet is run down by some
Columbian drug runners' hit men, Rocky goes to visit an old
Russian Mafia connection, and a petty jewel thief tries to
get in on the action by kidnapping Janet. Starr
Ambrose has woven another romantic suspense story that
will keep you spellbound.
The last thing Janet Westfield needs in her life is an ex-
con. But when she's accused of trying to pass stolen
jewelry, the only one who can help her is the extremely
charming ex-jewel thief she's been avoiding, Rocky
Hernandez. Unable to deny her attraction, she falls for
him, hard. Unfortunately, his past is putting her in even
greater danger, and the best way for Rocky to save her
might be to leave her.
