Beauty And The Badge

the long version

Preschool teacher Mary Shaw craved nothing more adventurous than car pools and cookie baking. Then FBI agent Ford Devereaux swept her off her feet - literally - and into his murky, perilous world. Did she dare believe her muscular, magnificent captor when he promised to protect her? Ford had Mary's best interests in mind - so he'd abducted her and almost gotten her shot. No wonder she seemed less than thrilled about being alone with him! But a murderer was stalking her, and Ford had a job to do. First, he'd save Mary's life - then he'd convince her to spend the rest of it with him!
