Newly promoted Catrina (Cat) Angel, can't wait to toss around her new title of 'Detective' in the NYPD 78th Precinct. After years working her arse off, not only to prove her chauvinistic co-workers wrong but to please her 'always-present-stick-up-the-arse' Commissioner, the last thing Cat needs now is to work with distractingly-sexy Captain Theodore Torelli.
Their assignment from the Commissioner was simple, work undercover as sibling drug kingpins and gain the attention of a certain 'La Cosa Nostra' Don wreaking havoc in Brooklyn, Constantine Esposito.
When the 'sibling' duo are struggling for information and an invitation to work alongside 'La Cosa Nostra', Cat is given an additional order to speed things along; seduce Constantine Espositio by any means necessary.
Disarray comes in many forms and especially likes to toy with Catrina's life, and choosing between a safe well respected Captian and a dangerous will-kill-for-you Don has never been so exhilarating and hard.
