Johnny Ramos has just returned to Denver after a tour of duty in Afghanistan, and he hopes he’ll be asked to join an elite Pentagon group, the Special Defense Force. He is shocked when he recognizes an old acquaintance from high school, Esme Alden, the class valedictorian who spent a memorable few minutes in the backseat of his car, dressed as a hooker. So he decides to follow her. Esme is actually a private investigator, working feverishly to extricate her gambler father from his latest debacle. In one night, she needs to recover a painting stolen by the Nazis, return it to the owner for a finder’s fee, and take that fee to her father’s bookie. She doesn’t have time to spare, especially not for Johnny Ramos, who appears out of the blue and insists on following her, then on helping. One night, though, is enough time to revive powerful memories and forge a new relationship. Janzen’s latest is a fun and sexy yarn filled with nonstop action and starring an irresistible bad boy. --Maria Hatton
