Nina Bruhns has done it again with this sexy read. "Audacious exotic dancer Vera Mancuso is a girl from the wrong side of tracks trying to make good…and totally out of the social realm of wealthy playboy lawyer Conner Rothchild. But when they meet, instant and powerful sparks fly, intensified by the mystical influence of the cursed Tears Of The Quetzal diamond ring, which she has on her finger as she performs–a ring that was stolen from his murdered cousin."

Connor is quickly convinced Vera has nothing to do with either crime. When the FBI arrests her, he arranges her release, and together they set out to catch the real culprit. But just as in the classic tale, Conner’s pretty Cinderella disappears from the glamorous charity ball as they close in on the villain. But this time it is not a pumpkin coach that steals her away from her prince charming. It is a cold-blooded killer.

Ms. Bruhns is the BEST at conveying real emotion on the page! Anyone who wants a satisfying love story coupled with thrilling action needs to read this book. Nobody does passion and danger better!
