Burn on the Western Slope
by
Angela
Smith
BLURB:
On
the ski slopes of Montana, deception turns deadly and seduction becomes more
hypnotic than jewels.
Reagan
McKinney is on a mission to discover more about a deceased uncle who mysteriously
left her a sizable inheritance, a condo in the mountains, and a stash of stolen
jewels. With both her graphic design
career and her love life in shambles, the opportunity to begin a new life
couldn’t have come at a better time.
When she becomes involved with the sexy FBI agent next door, she finds
her struggle is not only to keep her heart intact, but her life.
Grief
stricken after an undercover investigation ends in the tragic death of his
partner, FBI Agent Garret Chambers goes home to find solace in the arms of his
mountain home. That is, until his boss
assigns him to investigate the spirited brunette staying in the condo next
door. He is assigned to investigate
Reagan’s involvement with a large jewel fencing organization, but his investigation
becomes comprised when his attraction to her heats up. Will his discovery destroy everything he has
come to love, including Reagan?
Excerpt:
Garret blinked, slowly, and she watched his chest rise and
fall. “Did you know something about Kyle?”
She threw her boot at him. He caught it. She cursed.
“I knew he was a dirty cheating slime ball. Just like you.”
Reagan tugged on her socks and her knee-high boot, tightening the lace in record
speed. Standing, she marched to him and seized the other from his grasp,
refusing to look at him. Her balance teetered as she tried to slip it on, but
she wouldn't give him the satisfaction of seeing her helplessness. She braced
one hand on the wall as she loosened the lace and lugged on the boot, refusing
to sit. Refusing to reveal any kind of vulnerability or regret.
Garret remained in the doorway, watching. Unmoving. She
pushed past him, his woodsy scent all the more reason to hate him, or at least
hate the effect he had on her. She donned her jacket, slipped on her gloves,
and tore out the front door.
“It’s too far to walk,” Garret called behind her.
“I’ll take my chances.”
Garret pulled on her arm and whipped her around. Eye level
with his chest, she didn’t fail to notice the tension streaming out of every
pore of his body. The cords in his neck bulged with each breath. His eyes, a
deep, dark, abysmal dye, wouldn’t let her inside his head. Which was a good
thing, now that she knew the psychosis of his mental state.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
During my
senior year in high school, I was dubbed most likely to write a novel because I
always had my nose stuck in a book. I
would hide my romance novels under my history book until my teacher called me
out on it. Writing has been my dream
ever since my mother read Brer Rabbit to my sister and me so often that we were
able to recite it back to each other before actually learning to read. I love reading about the adventure of love,
and getting involved in the legal field developed my love of suspense. I
believe love is a mystery that most people have trouble resolving. While I don’t expect we’ll ever solve that
mystery, I love to read and write about characters who work to solve their
love’s mystery. See more about me at my
website www.loveisamystery.com or
