Authors: Diane Kelly

When we finished our food and drinks, we headed out to his Nova. He led me to the passenger side, opened my door, and held out a hand to help me in. When I was seated, he leaned in. “Those margaritas were cold. Let's see if we can heat things up a little.”

He proceeded to do just that by pressing his warm lips to mine in a kiss that could only be described as
muy delicioso.

Not a bad way to end a crazy day. Not a bad way at all.

Diane Kelly
is a former assistant state attorney general and tax advisor, who had many brushes with white-collar criminals during her career. When she realized her experiences made excellent fodder for novels, her fingers hit the keyboard and thus began her Special Agent Tara Holloway romantic mystery series. Diane is also a proud graduate of her hometown's Citizen Police Academy. Diane lives in Nashville, Tennessee with her own romantic hero and a houseful of spoiled rotten cats and dogs.
