When widow Talia Wasserman applies for a job with the local police department, she's shocked to discover she'll be working for Lieutenant Eve Poe, an officer she'd met--and been attracted to--during a long-ago citizen's police academy workshop. Fifteen years later, the spark is still there, and no one's currently in Talia's life or in her bed. But there's just one teeny, tiny problem. Eve is her boss, so she's completely off-limits. Eve feels a sizzling connection with Talia from the very first, but Talia works for her, and that's just a bad idea. Besides, Eve needs to focus on the person sending disturbing emails to her office, and not on the woman who quickly makes herself invaluable to the department. It's too bad her heart doesn't agree with her. Then Eve is badly injured in the line of duty, and Talia's worst fears are realized. She may lose her chance at happiness with the woman she's come to love, and she can't survive that kind of loss twice in a lifetime.

This is what happened... I met him at the candy store. He turned and smiled at me and I was surprised enough to smile back. This was not a children's candy store, mind you -- this was the kind of place you went to buy expensive imported chocolate truffles for your boss's wife because you felt guilty for having sex with him when you were both at a conference in Milwaukee. Hypothetically speaking, of course. I've been hit on plenty of times, mostly by men with little finesse who thought what was between their legs made up for what they lacked between their ears. Sometimes I went home with them anyway, just because it felt good to want and be wanted, even if it was mostly fake. The problem with wanting is that it's like pouring water into a vase full of stones. It fills you up before you know it, leaving no room for anything else. I don't apologize for who I am or what I've done in -- or out -- of bed. I have my job, my house and my life, and for a long time I haven't wanted anything else. Until Dan. Until now.
