"When a fashionista and her bodyguard get tangled up together, watch
out for sizzling sex and surprising plot twists." - New York Times best selling
author Rebecca York
Sylvie Bissette may be one of Harbor City's youngest glitterati, but
only her best friends know her most closely guarded secret. She's the woman
behind The High-Heeled Wonder, a must-read blog for fashionistas everywhere.
Gossip, fashion advice, exposés. Too bad some people can't take a little
criticism. When an internet troll discovers her secret identity and escalates
from stalking her to threatening her life, Sylvie turns to security expert Tony
Falcon for help. The investigator from the other side of the tracks is the olive
oil to her Evian water and aggravates her to no end, but it's not just her
temper he's inciting...
Tony Falcon wouldn't know a kitten heel from a tabby cat, but since most of the bad guys he tracks down aren't wearing stilettos, it's never been a problem...until he meets Sylvie. When a murder investigation leads him to the same place Sylvie works, he realizes the feisty fashionista may be his best chance at catching the criminals who killed his best friend. It all leads back to the cut-throat fashion world. But solving that case means going after the people Sylvie cares about, and soon his attraction for her--and the danger she's in--has him wondering if solving the case is worth hurting the woman he can't stop fantasizing about ...
When Sylvie's almost run over in broad daylight, Tony goes undercover as her boyfriend to infiltrate the close-knit fashion community. And when they discover Sylvie's stalker may be linked to Tony's own investigation, what started as a simple plan to find his friend's killers turns into a hot bed of secrets and revelations. In a world full of overblown egos and dog-eat-dog ambition, Tony and Sylvie must work together to find her revenge-obsessed stalker before Sylvie ends up with a literal knife in the back.

Claire Layton expects the usual busy Saturday night at
Harvest Bistro to be killer on her stilletto shod feet. She never imagines
there’d be an actual murderer on the loose at her restaurant in rural Dry Creek,
Nebraska. But when she discovers a customer dead in a dumpster, the killer
demands she find the victim’s phone and flash drive or face fatal consequenses.
Jake Warrick, a cocky and mind-numbingly hot private investigator, becomes Claire’s unlikely ally in the search. Jake just wants to solve the case and get out of this hick town, but the diminutive and curvaceous Claire turns his plan upside down as they uncover a more complex crime than they ever imagined. The two bicker and banter like Tracy and Hepburn caught in a whirlwind of intense sexual attraction as they try to find the killer before it’s too late.

"I do believe I can arrest you for looking at someone like
that. You've got to be breaking some indecency laws."
Taking a deep breath, she recovered her bearings. Mostly. "You're out of your jurisdiction, sheriff."
Dry Creek County Sheriff Hank Layton is the stuff of dreams. Nasty, steamy, delicious fantasies that leave Beth Martinez weak-kneed and desperately wanting the man she can never have.
Hank can’t stop thinking about Beth to the point where he’s afraid of becoming permanently bowlegged. And even though the sexual tension between them is thick enough to trip over, she runs every time he chases.
But when a mysterious developer forces her neighbors off their land, Beth becomes the one person standing between the scoundrel and millions of dollars. Only Hank can help her uncover the truth. Together they risk their lives exposing decades-old secrets and learn that everything is not as it seems in their rural Nebraska town.

Uptight history professor Sam Layton may have the abs of a
movie action hero, but he stopped believing in the joy of adventure a long time
ago. However, when a one-night stand with a tattooed bombshell leads to a
treasure map for the long-buried Rebecca’s Bounty, the call to action is too
strong to ignore.
All Las Vegas cocktail waitress Josie Winarsky wants to do is paint. But when she lands smack dab in the middle in a mob plot, she has to push aside her dreams to find a treasure in Dry Creek, Nebraska and save her family from harm. With Sam at her side and a Vegas loan shark on her tail, the treasure she finds turn out to be much more valuable than emeralds and rubies.

Avery Flynn has three slightly-wild children, loves a hockey-addicted husband and is desperately hoping someone invents the coffee IV drip.
She fell in love with romance while reading Johanna Lindsey's Mallory books. It wasn't long before Avery had read through all the romance offerings at her local library. Needing a romance fix, she turned to Harlequin's four books a month home delivery service to ease the withdrawal symptoms. That worked for a short time, but it wasn't long before the local book stores' staffs knew her by name.
Avery was a reader before she was a writer and hopes to always be both. She loves to write about smartass alpha heroes who are as good with a quip as they are with their *ahem* other God-given talents. Her heroines are feisty, fierce and fantastic. Brainy and brave, these ladies know how to stand on their own two feet and knock the bad guys off theirs.

MY TAKE ON IT:
Right from the beginning I got pulled into the story. My little girlie girl heart skipped a few beats as fashion, great shoes, and hot guys were woven together to tell a tale of love and mystery and danger. In this story you've got a woman who has risen to success on her own merit, a man who is hell bent on righting a wrong, a pair of fathers who are determined to keep their little girl safe, and a stack of jealous and bitter fashionistas who can't help but bring extra drama to the mix. Add in a little bridezilla and a psycho and you've got a great tale that is sure to entertain for hours!! And great shoes, don't forget the shoes!
