A small-town cop must protect
a beautiful rogue undercover detective.
Trespassing, fleeing a peace officer...hell, she’d aimed a gun at his chest! Officer James Tedder can’t help but admire her fight. And undercover detective Charlotte Helms will never quit. She’s on a personal mission: rescue her best friend’s daughter...and bust the child-trafficking ring that lured her away. When they’re forced to become partners, James must trust Charlotte to have his back. But can he trust her with his heart?
DEBBIE HERBERT writes paranormal and romantic suspense novels reflecting her belief that love, like magic, casts its own spell of enchantment.

Her eldest son, like many of her characters, has autism. Her youngest son is in the US Army. A past Maggie Award finalist in both young adult and paranormal romance, she loves to hear from readers!
