"I thoroughly enjoyed this one!"

Jacey Wheeler turned her back on her very wealthy family and started a private investigating business on her own. She is doing quite well and has an office manager and a wonderful co-worker. She has just been asked to take a very intriguing case. It seems a very wealthy man who owns a successful business wants her company to investigate which of his relatives is the best to take over his company.

Jacey asks her co-worker Lucky Boucher to help out in this investigation. Lucky knows he's way out of his league being bayou born and all but he enjoys his job and working for Jacey. She doesn't treat him like an employee but as an equal. What Jacey doesn't know if Lucky has a very big secret that could ruin their working relationship if it ever came to light.

As Jacey and Lucky get involved in this case, more and more secrets are uncovered and they become closer and closer. How will they ever get to the bottom of this intriguing case especially if Vinny Tomsino tells them how he wants the investigation to go or else.

I was totally intrigued with this fascinating story. As much as I wanted to see how the story turned out, I almost didn't want it to end. Lucky and Jacey were excellent characters that belonged together after they had to get a few things straight and figure things out for themselves. I have several of Kylie Brant's books in my huge TBR mountain of books. Now I must find time to dig them out and read them!
