Mystery. Murder. Men in silk stockings. Hollywood nights are heating up. Hardboiled Los Angeles PI Cain Noble is hired by wealthy and gorgeous Camille Astor to find her husband and a priceless work of art, both of which have disappeared.

Manties! *sigh*

This story is a hidden little gem. It has an old-time "noir" kind of feeling to it at times. It's probably helped along with the P.I., intrigue, murder and mayhem and all the secrets that go along with this kind of tale. As all of the Dreamspun Desire books it does have a slight insta-love kind of vibe, but nothing too overbearing. There's enough relationship building happening to satisfy me, and a solid HFN to keep me happy, lol. ( )
