With Private Eyes

Claudia Barone was the perfect choice to shadow Ethan Mallory and discover what he knew about the sabotage of her family's business. She could steamroll anyone. Anyone but Ethan. The cagey P.I. would never tell her his prime suspect was her brother. Nor could he hide his attraction–red-hot, out of control and licking at her heels….

To a society deb like Claudia, Ethan was rough around the edges, and used caveman tactics to get his way. Yet that earthy animal attraction threatened to eat her alive. Claudia had never been bested by a man, but working closely with Ethan, desperately trying to keep her hands off him, she wondered if she'd met her match….

About the author

EILEEN WILKS is a fifth-generation Texan. Her great-great-grandmother came to Texas in a covered wagon shortly after the end of the Civil War–excuse us, the War Between the States. But she’s not a full-blooded Texan. Right after another war, her Texan father fell for a Yankee woman. This obviously mismatched pair proceeded to travel to nine cities in three countries in the first twenty years of their marriage, raising two kids and innumerable dogs and cats along the way. For the next twenty years they stayed put, back home in Texas again–and still together. Eileen figures her professional career matches her nomadic upbringing, since she’s tried everything from drafting to a brief stint as a ranch hand–raising two children and any number of cats and dogs along the way. Not until she started writing did she "stay put," because that’s when she knew she’d come home. Readers can write to her at P.O. Box 4612, Midland, TX 79704-4612.
