BLURB:
The glitz and glamour of Las Vegas hide a multitude of sins. And in Lucy Farago’s show-stopping series, a lawyer and an FBI agent take a walk on the seedy side, where greed breeds a deadly desperation...
Civil attorney Shannon Joyce walks the line of law and order, but she learned from day one how to put up a good front—thanks to her con man father. Thirteen years ago, she left the east coast and her life of crime behind. Her high school sweetheart, Noah, was collateral damage, but some things can’t be helped. But now there’s no escape when her past comes roaring down the Strip—in the oh-so-tempting form of the man she left behind...
Special Agent Noah Monroe has Shannon exactly where he wants her—in the back of his car in handcuffs. Her grifter father has been murdered, and the FBI needs Shannon to keep one of his scams in play to bag the big bad guy who was financing him. Once again a pawn in someone’s else game, Shannon will have to trust her instincts to survive both the peril threatening her—and the passion Noah reignites…

Excerpt Two:
“And yet you flew home to see him.”
“No, I flew to Tweedsmuir to see him. My home is here.”
Something flashed in his eyes. Anger maybe, then it was gone. “Fine,” he gritted out. “Why did you fly to Tweedsmuir?”
“I didn’t. I flew to Boston, then took a car to a bar in Hanover, just outside that sad, small-minded town.”
Noah blew out a breath. She was annoying him. She had to say it was amazingly satisfying. Not only had he been a total ass, but by handcuffing her as she was leaving her office, he’d risked her reputation; hell, her firm.
“Why?” he repeated.
She didn’t want to interfere in a police investigation, nor did she trust him. “I missed him.”
“Damn, Shannon. I can’t help you if you don’t tell me the truth.”
“Help me? Help me? You call hauling me off in handcuffs helping me? You’re lucky none of my staff saw what you did. I have two partners to think about. And you still haven’t told me what evidence you have. What the hell links me to his murder? And why,” she nodded toward the window, “are we at the airport?”
“If I’m honest with you, will you return the favor?”
Favor? She glanced outside. Under the bright bulbs of the Vegas airport, a man dressed in a gray suit opened a car trunk and removed black luggage. A woman stood on the curb waiting. Noah hadn’t taken her to the police station. And neither had he read her Miranda. She considered her next move. “Are you going to uncuff me and tell me why we’re at the airport?”

Lucy Farago knows there is nothing like a happy sigh at the end of a good book. With the encouragement of her loving husband, she wrote her first manuscript. An unpublished historical, it sits in a file on her computer, there to remind her how much fun she had learning the craft and becoming part of an industry whose books make you believe anything is possible. A big fan of Agatha Christie, she set out to write her first romantic suspense novel. Thrilled to be a published author, Lucy also teaches yoga, enjoys cooking, and saying what other people are thinking. In her fantasy world, her beautiful Siberian husky, Loki, doesn’t shed and her three kids clean up after themselves. Alas, that fantasy will never see fruition.
Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteGood morning Lucy! I always like to ask my fellow authors this question: Can you read/write when it's noisy or do you need near silence as I do?
