Steal Me

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Series: New York’s Finest, Book Two

Rating: Steamy, with explicit sex scenes

NYPD Captain Anthony Moretti puts duty above all else, but when a sweet-natured waitress also becomes his star witness he begins to redefine what it means to put it all on the line.

This cover is different from what you’ll find on the retailers, but the content of the book is the same! The original publisher covers are very well done, but I think they look like a bit like suspense novels, when the stories themselves are romance.

  • Being a cop might be in Anthony Moretti’s blood, but protecting and serving the city of New York has always been more than just the family business. If that means his love life stays locked up, well then that’s just another sacrifice made in the line of duty. That is, until he sets eyes on the gorgeous new waitress at The Darby Diner and suddenly Anthony’s morning coffee is leaving him a whole lot more hot and bothered than usual.

    Though waitressing at The Darby isn’t exactly Maggie Walker’s dream job, it pays the bills and gives her time to work on her novel. Now if only she could stop fantasizing about gorgeous Anthony Moretti every time he sits down at her table, she’d really be in great shape. But when he needs her help identifying a criminal threatening The Darby-and Maggie recognizes her ex-husband-she fears her fresh start might be a pipe dream. Faster than a New York minute, Maggie and Anthony find themselves in one perilous pursuit that only gets hotter with each and every rule-breaking kiss.
