"Rebecca was the only Moving Violations that Jackson wanted"
Rebecca Taylor has had to go back to her hometown for her
aunt's funeral. Being back in Jericho, Tennessee, has
brought back old memories of the love of her life. Even if
it had been all one-sided, all hers. Jackson Montgomery was
the man she had always loved, but as he was years older, he
only saw her as his "Pixie Pest". When he shows up at her
aunt's house after the funeral all those emotions come doing
back. Maybe it wasn't too late to do something about the
crush she had all these years ago. No man had ever measured
up to Jackson. Jackson Montgomery had come back to Jericho after the
Marines to become the sheriff, after his father the former
sheriff died. Jackson didn't believe it had been accident.
When there were several more accidental deaths, he starts
to investigate. Making a lot of enemies, including the
mayor, along the way. He is determined to find out what is
going on in his hometown. Someone is hiding something. The
only distraction he has is that his "Pixie" is back. This
time she is all grown up. It doesn't take long for Rebecca and Jackson to be locked
in each others' arms. But when she reports to Jackson
the next day as one his new deputies, she doesn't know who
is the most surprised -- her or him. Can they work
together? Where will that leave any romance between the two
of them? Ms. Leigh and Ms. Chadwick were able to create an
atmosphere of suspense as well as a highly erotic novel.
Their ability to combine their writing was excellent. This
novel had me from the first page. I even enjoyed the
secondary characters. They were able to capture the red-
neck south to perfection. The way the other deputies
treated Rebecca is true to form. The events of 9/11 made
this story timely with its action. I hope Ms. Leigh and Ms.
Chadwick are working on another novel.
