Abe Royal wants to show you his cover

Dear readers,

Kathryn requested that I send her newsletter subscribers a note regarding the reveal of the cover for my book, IN THE CLEAR. 

As you can see, my cover is below. 

I understand that my reputation as Codex's stern and stoic leader has preceded me. However, I'll remind all of you that the pursuit of justice never rests - and the work is never, ever done.

Therefore, while I know my lack of romantic attachments has been a source of much speculation, I'll emphasize that the walls surrounding my heart are high for a reason. I have yet to meet a woman with the skills to dismantle them.

Kathryn seems to believe she has found the heroine who will be my undoing. 

I'd like to see her try. 

*straightens tie*

Now, without further ado:

IN THE CLEAR
releases on Friday, July 31st! 

He needs to keep the gorgeous competition out of his head…and his bed.

Former FBI agent Abe Royal believes in hard work, justice, and a suit for every occasion. He’s hot on the trail of an elusive book thief when he realizes he’s being followed…by a sultry, cunning stranger.
 
Ambitious, young detective Sloane Argento has just been handed the case of a lifetime. It’s a challenge she’s prepared to meet head-on. Until she finds herself in a sexy game of cat-and-mouse with the devastatingly handsome competition. Tempting the sinful devil hidden beneath his cool façade might just become as much a priority as capturing the criminal.
 
Abe’s stoic restraint shows cracks every time Sloane gets too close. He needs distance, rules to protect himself. But when teaming up is the only way to race the ticking clock, he’s left wondering just how long he can deny his attraction to this risky, red-hot distraction.
 
Author’s Note: Insta-lust meets suspense in this action-packed, flaming-hot romance about a stoic hero with a guarded heart and a kick-ass heroine with a few secrets.
