Friday Memes: Shades of Temptation by Virna DePaul


Happy Friday everybody!
Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.
This week I am featuring Shades of Temptation by Virna DePaul. I got this romantic suspense title from Harlequin via NetGalley. Here is the description:
Carrie Ward understands dangerous men, and she's got the scars to prove it. These days, the Special Investigations Group detective saves her risk taking for the job. But when she's asked to pursue a high-profile serial killer, she'll have to join forces with the last man she wants to depend on—Jase Tyler, an ace senior detective who's as reckless as she is cautious. And despite her best intentions, the sparks begin to fly.

As Carrie and Jase race to try to save the next victim, the passion that simmers between them ignites. But a cunning killer at the top of his game is challenging carrie to play to the very end. Now all she can count on are her instincts—and Jase, the one man daring enough to keep her safe….
Beginning:
Special Agent Carrie Ward entered McGill's Bar to break a dry spell, but there was to be no alcohol involved.
Friday 56:
Besides, you don't have female friends, Jase. You're a serial dater. Hell, you barely even date. You please them then you leave them.
