A Case for Romance

by Katie Rose

This isn't the fate Emily Potter imagined for her long-lost father: gunned down in cold blood in the parlor of his bordello in bawdy, booming Denver. Now the lovely armchair sleuth from the civilized East is determined to unmask the killer, employing the logic of her hero, Sherlock Holmes. Yet Holmes never faced distractions like the Reverend Thomas Hall, who seems unusually interested in the abandoned house of sin - and Emily's every move.

Emily suspects the "preacher" knows more about gunslingers than the Good Book - and perhaps even something about her father's murder. All she knows is it's hard to keep her mind on deduction when Thomas seems intent on seduction. Meanwhile the bordello's matchmaking ghost insists on providing lessons in feminine wiles. But as logic gives way to passion, Emily forgets to protect both her vulnerable heart-and her life.
