Indebted — Sharon C. Cooper

Even when he does good, he's bad… Detective Lazarus Dimas doesn't play by the rules. On the streets, he's a force to be reckoned with, a dangerous man with a badge and a gun. But he does have a soft spot -- the sexy assistant district attorney Journey Ramsey. There is something about the woman he can't shake. She's irresistible and off-limits. At least that's what he keeps telling himself, but one kiss leads to others and well…so much for limits. Journey plays by the rules, normally. But she can't deny the sexual tension that sparks whenever Laz is near, even when he puts her professional integrity at risk. Laz is complex. The type of man fathers warn their daughters about. Yet, there's a gentle, vulnerable side to him that he lets no one see except her, and she can't resist him. Can Laz prove he's the man for Journey before a reopened case exposes his true colors? Or will the danger they face show that the love they share knows no boundaries? *Indebted is book 2 in the Atlanta's Finest Series, but can be read as a standalone. **This is also an interracial romance (BWWM).
