Bienvenido (welcome) Marisela Morales. Marisela is Tampa's
latest bad-girl, a bail enforcement agent turned gun-
carrying operative for a worldwide investigative agency.
And she's good.
Marisela does a personal favor for family friends and lets
bad boy Frankie Vega drive her from a bar to the little
family apartment he stays in just so she can get him hot
and heavy. Once he's in the most vulnerable position, wham,
out come the handcuffs, and not for the fun Frankie had
hoped for. Frankie's hot now, but Marisela knows it's
because she's trapped him so he can't skip bond. She's
feeling a little hot and heavy herself, but paybacks are
coming, she's sure. She's just gotten even with Frankie for
breaking her heart years before. Now she wonders what he'll
do to her.
Frankie wasn't planning on skipping bond, but Marisela
doesn't know that. He's feeling protective of this
voluptuous Latina he's known since childhood. They were
each other's first lover; they've got a special connection.
Frankie has mentioned Marisela's name to his employer, Ian
Blake from Titan International, who's looking for a Cuban-
Spanish-speaking female to play a role in his latest
operation. Now Frankie doesn't want Marisela to participate
in the dangerous business. Ian Blake has other plans.
Circumstances lead Marisela to accept Ian's job offer, and
soon she and Frankie find themselves working as partners
playing the role of husband and wife hired assassins. Their
assignment is to rescue a teenager held by her Latino
father on an island off the coast of Puerto Rico and return
her to her Bostonian mother. The stakes are high and death
is a possibility. Marisela and Frankie discover they still
desire each other and feed off danger just as they did when
they were in teenage gangs.
I enjoyed DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS. It's a fast-paced story
full of excitement and danger with a touch of humor from a
get-in-your-face Latina who knows what she wants. I welcome
Latina heroines and hope to read more of Marisela's
adventures.
When Marisela Morales sets out to stop her ex-boyfriend,
Francisco Vega, from skipping out on bail, she has a
secret
agenda: revenge. She hasn’t seen Frankie in ten years, and
back then, he broke her heart by choosing his gang over
his
girl. So when she tracks him down to their old haunt, a
hot
dance club in Tampa, she sets about seducing him into her
trap.
Frankie has a secret agenda, too, and Marisela soon faces
a
tough choice: continue drifting through her twenty-
something life--hitting the same town with the same
girlfriends every weekend while struggling to find a job
and pay the rent--or dive headfirst into danger with her
ex. Frankie operates in a treacherous underworld full of
arms dealers, assassins and sinister agendas--a world
overrun with people keeping dirty little secrets--and only
Marisela has the cojones to fight her way to the truth.
Sexy, sultry and action-packed, Dirty Little Secrets is a
thrilling adventure in manhunting of the most dangerous
kind.
