Undercover With The Heiress. Nan Dixon
id="u9a263ed1-4a21-5744-8306-e957e1a286c4">
What’s behind her beautiful mask?
FBI agent Kaden Farrell is on a mission. He’s undercover at Fitzgerald House in Savannah, where a little girl is the key to his investigation. And that’s what he needs to focus on, not a down-and-out heiress whose jeweled eyes haunt his dreams.
Courtney Smythe might be spoiled, but when Kaden notices her ease with the children at the B and B, he sees the beauty beyond her looks. Getting close to Courtney will help his case, and giving in to attraction is the right thing to do. Even if it means perpetuating a lie...
Kaden stared into her eyes and the room shrank.
“Were you the little girl in the story?” His voice was a deep caress, drawing Courtney closer.
“What?”
He swept her hair off her face. “Were you that unhappy girl?”
She didn’t want to talk. Didn’t want to move. She wanted him to touch her. “I…I was making up a story for the kids.”
“Right.” He tucked a curl back behind her ear, and a single finger stroked down her cheek. His blue eyes locked on hers as he brushed her lower lip with his thumb. “I’m so sorry.”
Her breath caught in her chest.
Finally, Kaden was going to kiss her…
Ever since I started the Fitzgerald House series, I’ve wanted to redeem Courtney Smythe (she sure has been nasty). I wanted to figure out why she hasn’t thrived like her brother, Gray. Of course, her father calling her a “pretty little ornament” hasn’t helped.
When her dad cuts off her money and insists she find a job, Courtney suspects Gray caused her problems. She heads to Savannah, hoping her father will cool off. But Gray won’t let her sponge off him. Courtney works for the B and B. And fails. Tries to get the attention of the hot handyman. And fails. When she becomes a nanny to the kids living at the B and B, she finally finds her calling.
As a child, Kaden Farrell’s grandfather saved him from his drug-dealing parents. So when his grandfather breaks his hip working at Fitzgerald House, Kaden rushes to his side. At the B and B, his FBI drug-task-force job and his grandfather’s health intersect. The dealer he’s been chasing dropped her daughter off with the kid’s father, who lives at the B and B. Kaden, pretending to be a handyman, cozies up to the girl’s beautiful nanny. Even though Kaden’s not sure he even likes Courtney, sparks between them fly.
