"Humor, action and suspense. What more could you ask for?"
A member of Stilettos, Inc. Paige Sykes, an empath, and her
partners solve mysteries, protect heads of state and head
off terrorist plots. When she discovers a plan to kill the
president she learns that her ex, Collin Raines, might be
involved. Putting her past behind her could be harder than
she thinks. Darian Lorring, an agent of a unit of equally special men,
knows that Paige could not possibly be involved in the plot
against the president, as so many of his colleagues
suspect, but trying to protect her may get him more than he
bargained for. Torn between Collin and Darian, can Paige make the right
choice? One can only hope that writer Lexi Ryan will make this book
the first of a series. Humor, suspense and action are all a
recipe for a dish that I didn't mind taking a bite out of.
Throw in love scenes that get your juices flowing, in more
ways than one, and you will be begging for more.

Where special powers and super sexy collide...these are not your brother's superheroes!
Brains. Attitude. Beauty that brings men to their knees—if their Jujitsu moves don't do it first. The women of the private investigation firm Stilettos, Inc are not your average PIs. Each armed with a special power, there's no case the Stiletto Girls can't crack—until Specials start vanishing in growing numbers. Darian Lorring is an agent for the Specials Intelligence Agency, a secret government organization of humans with special powers. His unit's latest mission is to track the Stiletto Girls and determine their role in the assassination attempts on the president. But it's hard to keep secrets from a Stiletto Girl. His best defense? Keep sex on the brain. And Darian will eat and breathe sex to protect his country...having Paige in his bed again is just an added bonus. Empath Paige Sykes hopes solving the missing Specials case will answer unresolved questions of her mother's disappearance ten years ago. But one sexy, chauvinistic SIA agent continues to get in her way—and in her bed. How can she trust what she feels around Darian when his ability allows him to project emotions and physical sensations? How can she trust any man when her ex, Collin Raines, appears to be tied to attempts on the president's life? If you liked "Charlie's Angels," you'll really love this sexy, fast-paced paranormal!
