Braden Manning could think of only one thing: find his ex-partner, Kendall North, and protect, her. A troubled young man they'd helped put in prison was back on the streets, seeking revenge. Braden and Kendall had been a dynamic police team and the best of friends-until love had gotten in the way.
When Kendall had left she thought she'd never see Braden again, but the vision of him standing at her door was her wildest dream come true. Although their lives were different now, the passion between them hadn't changed. As the dangers closed in around them, their hearts gave way to dreams too long denied ....
Partners for Life is the first romance novel by Helen R. Myers. It involves Braden Manning and Kendall North (what’s with the weird names? I’m not going to reveal which is which, you read the book!) who were police partners until she ran away from their budding relationship: he was married at the time, if not happily. Then a man they’d helped put in prison is back on the streets and vowing revenge, so he goes looking for her to protect her. Things hot up as they are confined together in her house, waiting for the villain to turn up. Some humour, some hot sex and a bit of action.
