by Mimi Barbour
Lisa never breaks promises. So when her old partner, Aurora, makes her promise to find out who has kidnapped Jeff Waters and to save him from being killed, she agrees. No one knows that he's burrowed a path into her soft heart after their illicit night in his luxurious apartment. Just imagining him being in danger is enough to terrify the Las Vegas detective into taking chances she wouldn't normally now that she's responsible for her precocious three-year-old nephew.
Jeff hates knowing that the one person who comes to his rescue is the only woman he's ever wanted to marry, a woman he should be protecting not the other way around. The fact that his family's history put her in danger is driving him crazy. As crazy as the two killers who want him dead... but only after they get their ransom and bed the gorgeous long-legged prostitute they know has come to save him.
The Vegas Series:
Partners -- Book #1 Forced to take on a new partner, after a serial rapist attacks her former one, annoys Aurora big time. Especially when he's the kind of hotshot she normally stays away from. Since they both want this criminal; she ignores the irritating explosions he sets off when they're together.
Roll the Dice -- Book #2 Two detectives with differing agendas, yet after the same rapist, will keep you riveted. Kai, the bald-headed, blue-eyed, purse-carrying cowboy tries to wrestle control from his new partner, gorgeous yet grumpy Aurora. Right till the shocking end she fights him... and then things really deteriorate.
Vegas Shuffle -- Book #3 Pregnant, and furious at Kai Lawson, the missing fool who got her in this condition, Detective Aurora Morelli grudgingly accepts a new gal to be her partner. And... she's met charming, Jeff Waters. Can he replace her baby's daddy - is he man enough?
High Stakes Gamble -- Book #4 Being a new mom has made all the difference to Aurora getting over the pain of Kai's abandonment. Until some wacko steals her baby. Rather than shoot Kai when he shows up at her door - though to it was close - they work together to save their daughter.
Spin the Wheel -- Book #5 A wedding, a bank robbery and a night of hot sex all take place in this short bridge story between High Stakes Gamble and Let it Ride. Lisa Jordan has become responsible for her orphaned three-year-old nephew, and no man can come between her and that obligation. However, the casino tycoon, Jeff Waters, makes her question that decision.
Let it Ride -- Book #6 Lisa Jordan's life has drastically changed; her new female partner is a pit bull whose sister dies and leaves her as a guardian for her three-year-old nephew. After she sleeps with a millionaire casino owner who's kidnapped, how can she refuse to take his case? Her heart wouldn't let her refuse.

Mimi Barbour's Bio
NYT & USA Today, best-selling, award-winning author, Mimi Barbour, lives on the beautiful east coast of Vancouver Island and writes her romances with tongue-in-cheek and a mad glint in her eye. Asked why she prefers paranormal or suspenseful romance, she answers, chuckling... "Because it's fun! Imagination can be a lot more interesting than what happens in real life to so-called normal people. I love my characters, and my goal is to make the readers love them also. To care about what happens to them while the tale unfolds. If I can steal my booklover's attention away from their everyday grind, absorb them in a fantasy world, and make them care about the ending, then I've done my job. "Thinking back, writing my first romantic suspense novel switched the hard work into fun, and I've not looked back. I love writing about men and women finding each other and falling in love. Along the way, it pleases me to fill their travels with gritty conflicts -- spiced up with lots of humor and seasoned with a few tears, but always with endings that are happy."
