PI Miranda Steele’s best friend is having the time of her life in Paris, France. After winning first prize in a cooking contest, she’s learning to bake dark chocolate delicacies from the best chef in the city. But when the love of her life goes missing, her dream trip turns into a nightmare. She turns to the only people she can trust. As fast as they can, Miranda and Parker hop a plane to France.

When private investigator Miranda Steele gets a call from an old "friend" in Dallas, Texas, and decides to take his case, her boss and husband Wade Parker is none too pleased. Especially when she insists he stay home due to his recent injuries. No way, Jose. But when Southeastern sophisticated meets Southwestern country, tempers blaze hotter than Texas chili sauce, stressing Miranda's relationship with Parker to the max and sending Miranda into a turmoil.

At the London Museum of Antiquity, the priceless Marc Antony dagger is stolen. The museum director is heart-broken. He knows only one person can help him now. Actually, two people. Ace private investigator Wade Parker and his new bride and partner, Miranda Steele. But when she gets to London, Miranda realizes someone could murder for a museum piece valued at over five million pounds. And would murder again to keep it. She's determined to find the culprit before that happens. 

Something evil lurks in the shadows. Watching and waiting. Lusting for murder. Parker wants to take on a cold case back in Chicago. A house fire that might have been arson. Miranda is less than thrilled, but her sexy ace investigator husband won’t take no for an answer. So, the detective duo heads off to the town where Miranda was born.

Three weeks ago Miranda and Parker had a gut wrenching fight. Miranda struck out on her own, ready to prove she’s an investigator in her own right. Problem is...she has no clients. So when a scary dude from her past walks through the door and wants to hire her to find a missing exotic dancer, she's forced to take the case. Meanwhile Parker is done with Miranda and the pain she put him through. But if he can find whoever sent those threatening texts on her cell phone, he can prove he was right about her disregard of danger. Little do they know they're both in danger.
