Seaside Cowboy's Fairy Tale - Paperback

While her childhood might be similar to Cinderella's, she rescues others instead of waiting for a prince to rescue her. And she'd never fall for the subject of her investigation, a charming and mysterious CEO, right?

Private investigator / bodyguard Rachel Arvidson has to run from the masquerade ball, her suave dance partner, Tex Lawrence, and yes, her sparkly shoe behind to chase a thief. Then her client wants Rachel to trail Tex. Once she blows her cover to save Tex's life and gets to know him better, she questions everything. His guilt. Her no-dating rule. And who's really behind the jewelry thefts plaguing the coastal small-town community.

The beautiful stranger takes Tex Lawrence's breath away twice-the second time by knocking him to the ground. Unlike his cowboy brothers who've gotten married in quick succession, he chose a different path. But this once-betrayed workaholic might risk his bruised heart again for Rachel. What will he do when he learns her secret?
