Busting Out

When everything's on the line, love and danger are just a heartbeat away—preferably not in the same alley.

Four years ago, Maggie Lane lost her job with the Chicago PD, her boyfriend, and–let's face it—her sanity. Never one to accept defeat, she opened the Busted Detective Agency with her two best friends, carving out a niche as the city's best detective agency. Sure, her love life is drier than a tumbleweed, and her sanity is still MIA, but they're both overrated.

Chase Montgomery is a cop on his way up, with nothing standing between him and success. But when he—literally—runs into Maggie in an alley while chasing a perp, one look is all it takes to remind him exactly what he lost when he let her go. Unfortunately, she still hasn't forgiven him for ruining her career and obliterating her heart.

When a botched drug bust and Maggie's investigation of a cheating girlfriend turn out to be related, they must join forces. If they can control the urge to kill each other long enough, they might just figure out how to work together to catch the bad guys. But with a vengeful drug dealer hot on the trails, the stakes are higher than ever.

Busting Out is the second standalone book in this humorous series of romantic suspense novels. If you like a good mystery and gripping romance— all while laughing at crazy antics, then you'll love Vanessa M. Knight's delightfully fun series.
