Deadly Love

Deadly Love: A Thrilling Historical Romance in Turn-of-the-Century New York

Step back in time to the lost, magical world of turn-of-the-century New York City, where glittering mansions of society's elite are just footsteps away from the impoverished back alleys of the city's underbelly. On January 18, 1902, during a society ball, a little boy is kidnapped right out of his bed. Crime-solver extraordinaire Francesca Cahill stumbles across the ransom note just as she meets New York City's newly appointed police commissioner, Rick Bragg.

Francesca refuses to bow to convention and is determined to right the ills and injustices of society. She can no more stay out of this investigation than she can stop herself from falling in love with the city's powerful police commissioner. But little does she know that on this singular night, her life will change forever.
Deadly Love is the first book in an ongoing historical romance suspense series from B.D. Joyce (a.k.a. Brenda Joyce), featuring the beloved Bragg family. Immerse yourself in a world of true danger and even truer passion as Francesca and Rick navigate a web of intrigue, deception, and desire.
