Tempted By The Badge

Proving her innocence…at all costs

Ex-Chicago cop Mingus Black is used to liars. So why does the P.I. believe a teacher who insists she’s being framed? Joanna Barnes is totally convincing…in more ways than one.

The chemistry between Mingus and Joanna becomes perilously potent, but until he can find out who framed her for a heinous crime, everything they love hangs in the balance.
