Description from the publisher:

Something’s gotta give...but Codie Snow doesn’t know if it needs to be her non-committal workaholic ex-boyfriend attorney Slade Sheppard or her unsatisfying job as a nursing assistant. Because even though the chemistry with Slade is off-the-charts hot and the job is a necessary evil, she doesn’t know that she wants either.

Enter Pete Olsen, bad ass cop in charge of serving and protecting the town of Dalton, Colorado. Codie goes on a ride-along with Pete and sees the seedy underbelly of her town, witnessing the gamut—from an amusing domestic dispute to a frightening meth lab explosion—and she decides that law enforcement is not for her.

But Pete just might be.

When Codie learns that a supposed suicide Pete investigated on the ride-along is actually a murder, she poses as a religious fanatic in order to gain access to the controlling cult where the dead woman was discovered, hoping to find the truth.  But has she instead set herself up to be murdered—and will she uncover the killer before she becomes the next victim?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

FOOL ME ONCE is the first story in the Codie Snow series.  They will need to be read in the order of release.

What a great set up for what is undoubtedly going to be another wonderful series from Jade C. Jamison.  The characters are well developed and likeable.  The plot is deliciously twisted.  The relationships are steamy, sweet, confusing, and amusing.

 

I loved this story.  I can’t wait to return to Dalton, Colorado.  (The only way you’re going to get me somewhere that cold!)  I can’t wait to see what will happen next in this series.

Note:  while I was given this book as a gifted ARC, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
