Read the First Novel in the Series:
Sting of Lies
Can solving a mysterious poisoning save her career? Oh, and lead her to a long-lost buried treasure? Wait. And thrust her into the arms of true love?
Ice Age paleontologist and poisons expert Myrna P. Lee isn’t a team player. Not because she doesn’t want to be. She’s just not very good at it. Even her dog gives her attitude.
So, it’s just fine with her when she’s dispatched to a remote billionaire’s ranch tasked with solving a mysterious environmental poisoning. She doesn’t need anything from anyone, no siree.
Until a handsome cowboy moseys up to her side and:
• helps her unravel a decades-old murder
• leads her on an adventurous hunt for a long-lost treasure
• partners with her in a spine-tingling race against some very bad men
• shows her the value of teamwork
• and quite possibly steals her heart
Even the dog likes him.
Too bad about that betrayal thing. Oh, and the sabotage. Wait. And the grenades.
