Until I transferred to burglary division, I never even heard the name Michael Riley, and now I couldn’t get him out of my head. The fact that he chose me to help with a case might have been a dream or a nightmare. The jury was still out on that one. But while I was deciding if he wanted me or just my help, we still had a job to do. A string of gang-related thefts had plagued the neighborhood, and we were tasked with investigating and coordinating a sting. I needed to keep my mind on work and not on thoughts of him in my bed. He was my partner. I needed to trust him with my life, and maybe if he did that right, I’d give him a shot at my heart. Each novel in the series can be read as a standalone story. There are no cliffhangers.

For Eleanor there's too much at stake to fail. She just never realized that rousing Max's imagination means rousing his passion too—for the music, and for Eleanor herself. Part Three: Eleanor Westwood and her neighbor Max have a deal to help each other—one they sealed with more than a kiss.   Which is a problem, because what was supposed to be a simple deal becomes so much more as Eleanor lets Max dance his way into her heart. It should be win-win, except Eleanor isn't sure she can ever be triumphant in love...
