YOWZA! Keep the oven mitts handy for the love scenes in THIS story! Josh and Paige have been friends for several years even though she is married to another cop. Her husband has been cold and cruel to her but Josh has been her rock through it all. After Anthony is murdered, Josh has the unpleasant task of telling Paige the truth of his murder and the results of the police investigation. That first sizzling love scene shows all the emotions she has been holding inside...the pain of betrayal, the angst of all the years of her cold marriage, the fear of being a cop's wife, and so on. She rages at Josh and slaps and punches him, then collapses on his shoulder and sobs. Finally, she tells him she NEEDS him to make her feel loved again and he can't refuse her because he has loved her ever since he met her. The heat that is generated singes the pages!

Josh and Paige then embark on a sting with police to catch the criminals involved in Anthony's murder. Josh assigns himself as Paige's live-in lover so he can protect her. He tells Paige that he loves her but she is afraid of being involved with another cop. Josh decides to let her go back home after the case is wrapped up if that's what she wants. He's shot (does anyone hear music from 'The Bodyguard' here?) and she finally faces the fact that she can't live without him in her life.
