Publisher Description
JACKSON
I’m not the good guy in this story.
I’m the man your mother told you to avoid.
Because I can’t commit to anything (or anyone) that isn’t one of my investigation cases. Especially when my PI business is hanging on by a thin thread.
That is, until she returns. Sexy, frustrating lawyer Penelope Castalano.
The woman I once was crazy enough to fall for.
She has her hands on my newest case—a case that could save my career. And I want my hands on her.
Guess that means I have to commit to something after all: My work…or Penelope.
If I were a good guy, I’d pick the less deadly option—an assignment to keep tabs on a senator, one rife with murder, mafia and mayhem.
Because the other option, Penelope, is infinitely more dangerous…and being bad has never felt better.
AUTHOR’S NOTE: The Investigator is a steamy suspenseful romance and is part of a series of full-length novels in the Gafanelli Mob series. It contains foul-mouthed characters, lots of twists and plenty of heat. If any of these doesn’t sound like your cup of tea, please do not read.

Disappointing
This story is really confusing. Not much information is given. More than one third of the book in and you still have no idea what direction the book is taking, who the main players are, what the conflict is... Nothing is explained about Pea’s job and why she was in Paris or what she’s working on, why she’s interested in Jordan Chambers...
In book 1, “The Bodyguard”, Jax is portrayed as competent and effective but in this book, he seems more like a bumbling oaf who only succeeds through sheer luck. It’s hard to believe he was an exceptional FBI agent. He’s been snuck up on so many times and barely manages to get out of his numerous scrapes. Halfway through the book and you still have no idea what’s going on. It’s frustrating and a turnoff. Everything is a confusing mess. You have no idea how Jax and Pea and Bishop met, what their relationship was like 15 years ago or what happened 4 years ago. Why would Pea care about saving Fletcher’s life after all he was responsible for? The crumbs you are given are barely enough to keep reading. Except that I paid good money for this book. So many things don’t work: how quickly Veronica Harrison’s divorce came about; how Pea managed to have a briefcase in the jail when she bailed out Scott; why Sienna was asked to show up at Margot’s apartment; Scotty at the hospital...
This book was a real disappointment.
