Annie Perez should be allergic to kids – that’s how good she is with them – but when the former FBI agent finds her first assignment with a high profile investigations firm is as an undercover nanny, she has to make lemonade from the lemons tossed at her. It’s bad enough she has to arrange play dates and watch out for peanut allergies, but when she finds herself in Louisiana with an imminent threat against her charge, her days become complicated with suspects and her dreams haunted by a tall dark Cajun detective. Nate Dufrene is the best investigator the St. Martin’s parish detective’s bureau has and he refuses to be distracted by his prime suspect…even if her calm detachment and pretty gray eyes have his blood pumping faster. He’s determined no kid will ever disappear again on his watch just like his sister Della did years before. Throw in the off-beat Picou Dufrene, a stranger asking questions and a horror movie filmed at the historical Beau Soleil and things are going to get hot down on the bayou

So when an innocent but passionate encounter with a sexy stranger forces him to choose between business and pleasure, the decision should be simple.Too bad nothing about Louise "Lou" Boyd is simple.

He and Renny are in perfect agreement—an uncontested divorce and he'll be on his way. Too bad the crazy attraction that pulled them together before is just as strong, and it isn't listening to logic. Spending time with her makes him crave more. It could be they're still married for a reason.…
