Love means never having to hear your Miranda Rights.
What could possibly go wrong when an identity thief (without a real one) crosses paths with a homicide detective over a mysterious murder and a coverup? His hands are tied. Hers are not.
Catherine Cade is in a world of hurt when Rick Calhoun catches her red-handed. Prison? His own illegal perks? Some kind of weird romance (like... never!!) Is he involved in corruption and plans to kill her??? How is she supposed to transition from nurse practitioner (way too audacious!) to small town baker with him on her trail?
Rick Calhoun has plans all right. 1. put her to work? 2. keep her out of trouble? 3. get her to walk the straight and narrow? 4. bring her to the Lord? 5. and maybe, just maybe, win her heart.
Excerpt
Twenty minutes after my frenzied morning routines, my eyes drifted shut as I breathed out the anxiety I lived daily.
Whatever my name was, my license and my life—all things Catherine Cade—were fake. Pulling off a PhD and working as a nurse practitioner in Whiskey River was the scam of scams.
If the cops found out about my recent felonies, well, they would land this identity thief in prison.
***
Homicide Detective Rick Calhoun stepped under the crime scene tape, pushed up his ball cap, and asked God for wisdom as he glanced at the wall.
It was difficult to tell blood from brain matter. He stood in Thompson’s home and figured the body belonged to City Commissioner Stephen Thompson, or at least someone wearing the victim’s pajamas.

A Great Read!
This was a very well written book. The characters and action were very well developed. And what a book. Full of surprise's and heart touching drama. It's about second chances in life and romance. Best Christian suspense and romantic book I've read in ages. A Great Book!!
A True Romantic Thriller!
Don't let the title fool you; this is a suspenseful tension-inducing read. Yes, there is a touching romantic underlying theme, but my interest was a suspenseful crafted story. This novel meets and exceeds my personal interests in both suspense and romance. The author displays a solid knowledge of police work and captures a cops' thought process and their dry humor (I know because I was once one).
The main character's, Catherine, on and off again romantic relationship with Detective Calhoun, is peppered with humorous quick-witted barbs. However, you see a growing relationship with each other. The storyline also draws a line of Christian thought through it. A dynamic, dangerous, and complex novel compels the reader to turn the pages to the very end. And what an ending.
Great read
What a great read. Catherine Cade is an identity thief with partial amnesia impersonating a nurse practitioner—trying to go straight. Interesting, producing a lot of questions. I can't imagine myself losing my identity. Then one of her patients dies a mysterious death. Evidence points to murder. Tension increases. Homicide detective Rick Calhoun catches her and knows more about her than she does. When he finds a murder scene and catches up with Cade, the chase begins. (In more than one way.)
I loved this story. Christian fiction at its best. Suspense-filled with twists and turns. From the first scene to the last, I stayed glued to the pages. A clean romance that climbed little by little. Very good. Five-stars
