Thug Guard: A Cozy Cash Mystery #1 (Unabridged‪)‬

Hollywood stylist to the stars, Zoey Witherspoon, is a wanna-be Stephanie Plum, and to that end, she's now moonlighting as a badge-toting Private Investigator. But on her way to style one of her infamously diva-esque clients, she discovers her first dead guy in the Range Rover parked next to her. And this isn't just any dead guy... It's one with a Russian mob connection, and the one hired by her former client, Ponzi-scheming King Bernard McCall, to kill her.

Roman Bellesconi, a James Bond-style Double Agent, is hell-bent on bringing down the Ponzi-scheming King Bernard McCall. Why? First, because that's his job. And secondly, because he's got a lot more at stake than just job security. If he doesn't bring down Bernie, his family monarchy will be destroyed.

As the dead guys keep piling-up around them, Zoey may be damn sick of Roman's deep and very dark secrets, but she's also convinced that perhaps, as Roman's keeps repeating, it's only because he's keeping those secrets, that they're both still alive. Is there any chance that their covers will be blown, Roman's secrets revealed, and each of them will live to tell?
