(Book 1 of the 'Fever' series): A romantic crime mystery spiked with attitude (most of it warped), tons of humor, and enough steamy sex to drive those who dare read it racing for a cold shower. 5 Stars: "One for the Money meets Best in Show." 5 Stars: "Fun romance with laugh out loud humor!" An impulsive pet spa owner who loses her client's prize pooch ... After a lifetime of impetuous mistakes, pet spa owner Grace Donnelly outdoes herself when she loses Miss Coco Chanel-a shoo-in to win the annual Jersey Shore Fur Ball. Money, careers, and lives are in jeopardy. Too bad her helpers consist of an aging hippie aunt, a renegade schnauzer, and a drag queen. Worst of all, the only man truly qualified to help is her former flame, the hunkiest bodyguard north of the Mason-Dixon Line. A smokin' hot bodyguard with his own agenda ... Security specialist Nick Jackson faces his worst nightmare when Grace's amateur investigation nearly blows his undercover operation. Unless he nails the con-artist who scammed local seniors and whacked a witness, his homicidal granddaddy will take justice into his own liver-spotted hands. To salvage his case, his sanity, and his ex-lover's velvety skin, Nick joins forces with the sassy crusader who rubs him the wrong way-and so many right ways too. Together, they weather an explosion of murder, mayhem, and fun ... Action bounces between a beach harboring washed-up corpses, a fancy yacht no honest preacher could possibly afford, and the bawdiest nightclub in Atlantic City. Hazards multiply like bunnies, culminating in romance ... and a Fur Ball extravaganza the locals will never forget.
