An Impassioned Redemption.
By Sydney Jane Baily.
Jameson Carter owns a gambling riverboat on the Mississippi, he has the ladieswho work for him just to keep the men entertained while they aregambling, not in their rooms.
Josephine Holland owns a saloon where the women earned a living with a little extra attention to the customers.
Jameson will not take advantage of his employees ,so prefers to visit with theladies who work for Josephine. Although the one he really wants is notavailable to customers.
Someone is set to cause trouble. The saloonis burned, potshots are taken when Jameson and Josephine are walking in the street, and then one of Jamesons girls is shot.
They need to find out who is out to kill them.
A light hearted fun read, with good characters and a good dose of who dunnit.
I will be on the look out for more by this author.
From the Author
This standalone novella is an offshoot (also called a "bulge," which is not the most attractive word), featuring two of the secondary charactersfrom Book 3 of the popular Defiant Hearts series. Jo Holland and Jameson Carter would not leave me alone until I gave them their own story. I hope you enjoy it.
