Above the Law

Hope Williams is a by-the-book, no-nonsense, rule-follower and it's earned her the reputation of a prickly, pedant at the police department where she works. Behind the tough exterior lies a passionate, funny, smart woman whose self-esteem took a beating after having her heart shredded by Aloysius Townsend years ago. Resigned to living her life in a small town surrounded by her books and her colorful Grandmother, Hope's carefully ordered life is turned upside down by the attention of a delightfully witty and incredibly attractive new police officer, Campbell Speers. And, the return to Maple Grove of Aloysius Townsend, whose intentions Hope is even more unsure of now, makes for an even more tumultuous choice for Hope.
