Double Takes by Pippa Greenhouse

Pike’s Bluff Book 1

Samantha, a widow of three years, has just begun to put her life back together when a shooter in the parking lot of the mall destroys dozens of cars and causes multiple injuries. Adam Stapleton, a handsome lieutenant of the Highway Patrol, pulls Sam to safety and she feels for the first time in years what it’s like to be held in a man’s arms. And it’s wonderful.

But Adam has his own set of rules, intended to keep her safe. As a series of double-takes and other events happen that make her doubt her own judgement, she realizes she’s been drawn into a web of suspicion. She’s now the object of a murder investigation, of stalking, and her own home has been broken in to and ransacked. The only one she can trust now is Adam.

Publisher's Note: This steamy contemporary romance contains elements of power exchange and suspense.
