New Orleans Confidential #1
Undercover Encounter
Pressure and danger don't faze New Orleans Confidential agent Alex McMullin. Working with the woman he loved and left...now, that's another matter.
He'd ended their fiery affair to save her from himself. Now Confidential agent Alex McMullin had to face rookie cop Gillian Seymour as her only lifeline to the outside world in a risky and ultraprovocative undercover assignment. Finding the source of the lethal new drug hitting the streets of Sin City plunged Gillian deep into the darkly sensual underworld of an exclusive bordello. It was no job for a beginner, but the stubborn beauty wouldn't listen to reason. Which burned the normally cool Alex. Now the dedicated agent would focus all his skills on getting her out alive...before they could succumb to the wild pulse of hot New Orleans nights.

About the author
Rebecca York
444 books451 followersRuth Glick (born 1942) is a best-selling author of healthy cookbooks and has also written dozens of romantic suspense romance novels under the pen name Rebecca York.
Ruth earned a B.A. in American Thought and Civilization from George Washington University and an M.A. in American Studies from the University of Maryland. Although she always wanted to become a writer, Glick was convinced that her lack of spelling skills meant that her goal was unattainable. As a stay-at-home mother, she took a community college course to help her choose a career. The course made it very clear that writing was her primary interest. Glick began writing articles for newspapers and magazines, but after several years decided to try writing fiction. Her first book, a kids' science fiction book, was finally purchased by Scholastic Inc..
Since then, Glick has become a highly successful author of over 50 romantic suspense and paranormal novels. Many of her novels are published under the Harlequin Intrigue line, and in June 2003, she became one of the first authors published under Berkley's new Sensation imprint. Before 1997, she often collaborated with Eileen Buckholtz and Kathryn Jenson.
Glick also is a highly regarded author of cookbooks focusing on healthy eating. She sometimes hires trained chefs to test the recipes that she creates, and makes sure that every recipe is tested at least three times before it appears in one of her cookbooks.
Glick is the head of the Columbia Writers Workshop. She and her husband, Norman Glick, live in Columbia, Maryland, where Ruth collects rocks, and enjoys cooking, walking, reading, gardening, travel, and Mozart operas. They have two grown children, Elissa and Ethan, and two grandsons (Jesse and Leo).

There really didn't seem to be much depth to this one - the characters felt pretty flat. The romance between Gillian and Alex wasn't much better. The plot was okay although it felt like at times I was missing important backstory. It was fairly quick though and it didn't require much brain power.
