Burning Caine (Caine & Ferraro, #1) / Caine & Ferraro (ePub)

A dead body. A burned masterpiece. And two investigators with nothing but lies-and smoldering chemistry-between them.

Samantha Caine

I used to be a rising star in the FBI's Art Crimes Team. Now I'm back in my tiny Michigan hometown, caring for my sick sister and working as a bored-out-of-my-skull insurance adjuster. Until, finally, an assignment that's right up my alley-a claim for a million-dollar painting damaged in a fatal house fire.

From the get-go, something's not adding up. The police are blowing it off. My boss is pressuring me to wrap it up ASAP. Worse, I'm paired with an art conservator who's the kind of dark-haired, chisel-faced, Italian-accented distraction I don't need.

Antonio Ferraro, Ph.D.

I met Samantha once ten years ago, and I've never forgotten the fiery, passionate woman. When she storms back into my life, I know I have to have her, despite her insistence she'll never date again.

Telling her I immediately recognize the painting's a forgery would reveal family secrets better left buried. So, I'll complete the authentication to prove the fraud and win her over in the process. But if my deception's uncovered, it risks her case and my family's reputation-and our second chance will go up in smoke.

Secrets, danger, and slow-burning passions collide in this slow burn romantic suspense mystery.

Burning Caine is the first installment in the completed Caine & Ferraro series, featuring a strong heroine, a swoon-worthy Italian love interest, and an art-world mystery in every book. The main couple is together from book one, with no cheating and no cliffhangers.
