Book Description
Set against the sultry backdrop of the New Orleans French Quarter and the bayous of South Louisiana, SWEET SUSPICION is the story of two people running from a man with murder on his mind, but they discover something much more dangerous… each other.
Remi Beaulieux is a man without a home. A long-time deep cover agent for the FBI, the last thing on his mind is love. Certainly not with a woman like Muse Summerville, the wild-child pleasure-seeker he is tasked with protecting from the wrath of the New Orleans crime boss she’s slated to testify against. But Muse is sexy and intriguing, and nothing like Remi expected. She’s smart and sassy, with a streak of sweetness that touches his heart. From the minute he meets her, he finds himself fighting a losing battle against an attraction that won’t quit. But he senses she’s hiding something…
To the outside world, Muse Summerville projects an image of wildness and confidence, the life of the party surrounded by friends and lovers. What the world doesn’t know is that it’s all a façade. Inside she is still feeling the effects of something that happened long, long ago. Something that prevents her from getting too close. Sure, she flirts and dances, but she always keeps her emotional distance, always sleeps alone. For Muse, Agent Beaulieux is just another in a long string of bad boy rogues drawn to the facade she hides behind–albeit this time she has no choice about being with him. But Muse is not about to reveal her secret to any man alive. Especially not one who begins to stir emotions she’s always assumed she was incapable of feeling.
