Penny's Luck
Deirdre O'Dare

Still smarting from a painful betrayal by a woman he’d tried to help, Valdez Hawke is determinedly single and a lone wolf. His law enforcement career has become his whole life, and he doesn’t have time for the burgeoning attraction he feels for the new dispatcher. Pursuing her would also fuel his long-term feud with his immediate supervisor. Still, spunky and charming Penny is almost too much to resist.
When old secrets start to emerge, Penny finds the middle a dangerous place to be. Her new life introduces her to a complex world and an intriguing man who may be the partner she needs ... if they can get past old secrets and clever enemies hiding behind subtle prejudice.
