Just Plain Crazy: Rae of Hope Series

by Dm. L. Carter

All hell breaks loose when mild-mannered Rae Shields finally tires of playing the poor, pathetic victim. Abused as a child and abandoned as a young adult, she hangs on to her sanity by maintaining absolute control and order in all things. She treads silently through life, haunted by painful memories of an unforgettable past, trying to make herself invisible, and hiding behind a dry wit and a marked sense of humor. But, when a bad date ends in a run-in with the mob, she quickly learns that mob boss Tony Cabani has all the control. And, there is no place left for her to hide. What happens when Rae's well-ordered world is turned upside down by the ruthless head of organized crime? Real chaos ensues. There is more than one side of mob associate and international playboy Tyler Blazer. A heady mix of bad boy and good looks has kept him at arm's length from most women. Handsome and aloof, he's known as the Ice Man. He's attorney and advisor for Tony Cabani, judge and jury for the incarcerated and pin-up boy for the Mafia. But, he's also Special Agent Tyler Cates, domestic spy, dispenser of justice, and self-appointed protector of Rae Shields. What happens when you're ordered to kill the woman that you love? That's when things get just plain crazy.
