The legacy that haunts her ... The mystery she must solve ...    A man who threatens to reveal her secrets ...  and break her heart.

Burned by a failed marriage, former FBI agent Marc Rossi wants back in the investigation game with no emotional strings attached. Taking an assignment for his enterprising Angelino cousins, he heads to Northern Ireland to pry a key piece of evidence from a missing socialite-any way he can. But when the ice queen turns out to be warm, beautiful, and on a secret mission of her own, the job becomes a passionate reminder of what happens when duty and desire mix. The daughter of an infamous fugitive, Devyn Sterling has survived betrayal only to find that her mother has mysteriously disappeared. When her search uncovers secrets, lies, and threats, Devyn and Marc must trust each other when every instinct says they can't . . . and a terrorist wants to make sure they won't live to try.

Face of Danger (Guardian Angelinos)

TITLE:  Face of DangerWHERE TO BUY IT:    Amazon and The Book Depository

AUTHOR: Roxanne St. Claire
INFO: Paperback, Fiction, 379 pages
PUBLISHED: Forever, 2011
SOURCE: Received from Publisher for Review and Book Tour

FROM GOODREADS:   Private investigator Vivi Angelino has never met a risk she wouldn't take-and her latest client, a starlet with a madman on her heels, gives Vivi the perfect opportunity to walk on the wild side. That is, as long as she can make sure a certain overprotective, overly gorgeous FBI agent stays out of her way-and out of her fantasies.



Special Agent in Charge Colt Lang is not about to stand back and watch Vivi dangle herself as bait for a serial killer. Yet trying to rein her in means throwing his well-worn rulebook-and his iron self-control-to the wind . . . and taking the chance that his heart will become collateral damage in an already perilous case. Because a woman who can't stop searching for the truth is impossible to resist-even when every discovery she makes brings them closer to a calculating murderer with nothing to lose.

Read an excerpt from Face of Danger.

  9. While I haven't started this series yet, I have read several of her Silhouette Desire's books. She has an amazing way interweaving suspense and romance that make her books very hard to put down and very enjoyable.
