Following a devastating event in her previous career that left her with post-traumatic stress disorder, Macayla Burkett has taken a job being a pet detective, specializing in locating missing or stolen pets. Her newest case of a pair of stolen racing greyhounds goes south when she finds them dead, and worries that further horrors may have happened. Oliver Kelly, a co-owner of a K-9 search and rescue team, and his canine partner Jackeroo are in town to give a speech at a convention when he spots Macayla. She thinks Oliver must be part of the local stripper show, but soon learns how wrong she is. The sparks between them fly, but danger is stalking Macayla after her most recent discovery — and Oliver will do all he can to protect her. (ST. MARTIN’S, Jun., $7.99)
