In the eagerly awaited eighth book in the Chicago Stars series, Susan Elizabeth Phillips excites readers all over again with Piper and Graham. Much like the other SEP heroes, Piper Dove is a quirky character who likes to get herself into silly situations. As a detective hired to follow Cooper Graham around, she's pretty good at keeping up her disguises until Graham actually catches her.
Although he's suspicious at first, Graham can't deny that Piper has some skills. Instead of suing her, he hires her to scope out his business and weed out the bad eggs that might be taking advantage of him. From there, concern morphs into attraction and this unlikely pairing soon becomes a red hot firecracker waiting to explode.
If you haven't read a SEP novel, you are missing out on some hilarious and one-of-a kind heroines. Bursting with personality, these books never have a dull moment in them. If it's not the humorous dialogue that you keep you grinning from ear to ear, then the heroes of these novels will definitely get you smiling. They're real alpha men but with that sexy cowboy charm that makes them all nearly irresistible.
I'm so glad SEP decided to return and write more books in the Chicago Stars series. It's definitely one of my favorite Contemporary Romances. While you can still enjoy FIRST STAR I SEE TONIGHT as a standalone, I would suggest reading all the books in the series. I have no doubt you'll fall in love with these characters like I have.
A star quarterback and a feisty detective play for keeps in
this sporty, sexy, sassy novelβa long-awaited new entry in
the beloved, award-winning, New York Times
bestselling authorβs fan-favorite Chicago Stars football series.
Piper Dove is a woman with a dreamβto become the best

βThe fact is . . . Iβm your stalker. Not
full-out barmy. Just . . . mildly unhinged.β
Piper soon finds herself working for Graham himself,
although not as the bodyguard he refuses to admit he so
desperately needs. Instead, heβs hired her to keep an eye on
the employees at his exclusive new nightclub. But Coopβs
life might be in danger, and Piperβs determined to protect
him, whether he wants it or not. (Hint: Not!) If only she
werenβt also dealing with a bevy of Middle Eastern
princesses, a Pakistani servant girl yearning for freedom, a
teenager who just wants of fit in, and an elderly neighbor
demanding Piper find her very dead husband.
And then thereβs Cooper Graham himself, a legendary sports
hero who always gets what he wantsβeven if what he wants is
a feisty detective hell bent on proving sheβs as tough as he is.
From the bustling streets of Chicago to a windswept
lighthouse on Lake Superior to the glistening waters of
Biscayne Bay, two people who canβt stand to lose will test
themselves and each other to discover what matters most.
