Cavanaugh Justice #6
Cavanaugh's Woman
HE STOLE HER HEART...
Handsome, hardworking Shaw Cavanaugh defined the term "top cop." So when Moira McCormick arrived in town to research her next film role, it was no surprise that the Chief assigned the stunning movie star to shadow the no-nonsense Shaw—whether the officer liked it or not.
BUT COULD SHE CAPTURE HIS?
At first, Shaw couldn't stand the feisty, fearless Moira—or her constant presence in his squad car. But the movie star and the man in uniform discovered an unexpected connection that smoldered hotter than anything on the silver screen. After the cameras stopped rolling, would they give themselves up…to love?

aka Marie Charles, Marie Michael, Marie Nicole, Marie Ferrarella
Marie Rydzynski was born on March 28 in West Germany to Polish parents. She moved to America at the age of four. For an entire year, Marie and her family explored the eastern half of the country before finally settling in New York.
Marie swears she was born writing, "which must have made the delivery especially hard for my mother." From an early age, Marie's parents would find her watching television or tucked away in some private place, writing at a furious pace. "Initially, I began writing myself into my favourite shows. I was a detective on '77 Sunset Strip,' the missing Cartwright sibling they never talked about on 'Bonanza' and the 'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.' before there was a 'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.,' not to mention an active participant in the serialized stories of 'The Mickey Mouse Club.'" Marie began to write her first romance novel when she was 11 years old, although she claims that, at the time, she didn't even realize it was a romance! She scribbled off and on, while dreaming of a career as an actress.
Marie was only 14 when she first laid eyes on the man she would marry, truly her first love, Charles Ferrarella. During her days at Queens College, New York, acting started to lose its glamour as Marie spent more and more time writing. After receiving her English degree, specialising in Shakespearean comedy, Marie and her family moved to Southern California, where she still resides today.
After an interminable seven weeks apart, Charles decided he couldn't live without her and came out to California to marry his childhood sweetheart. Ever practical, Marie was married in a wash-and-wear wedding dress that she sewed herself, appliqués and all. "'Be prepared' has always been my motto,"the author jokes. This motto has been stretched considerably by her two children, Nikky and Jessi, "but basically, it still applies," she says.
In November of 1981, she sold her first novel for Harlequin. Marie, who now has written over 150 novels, has one goal: to entertain, to make people laugh and feel good. "That's what makes me happy," she confesses. "That, and a really good romantic evening with my husband." She's keeping her fingers crossed that her reader's enjoy reading her books as much as she enjoyed writing them.

There are two Cavanaughs who get their woman each in this one.
Shaw Cavanaugh of the Vice Squad is all set to be a loner for life because he doesn't want to leave behind someone who would be beyond help in grief if something happened to him. While he is making this decision he very conveniently forgets that death is fact of life for everyone and not only the police force. That even if were in a safer profession, death will claim him someday.
Moira McCormick has grown up being an artist (doesn't matter that she has been a con artist) and making a living out of make believe is the best she knows. Researching for her role as a detective on a Vice Squad, she enters Shaw's life and plans to have some fun. What she does not envision is that she wants Shaw in her life forever. Protecting her heart in the week of her research is an endeavor she has failed in spectacularly.
Of course when all reason and logic fail to help these lovesick people, family comes to the rescue with a death threat.
At the same time Andrew Cavanaugh (Shaw's father) has finally found his long lost wife Rose Cavanaugh but she is suffering from amnesia and for the life of her cannot remember all these people that she unknowingly left behind. Because the accident that did this involved she has been left with aquaphobia and it is thanks to a little accident in the bath tub that she regains her memory and is now wholly reunited with her husband and children.
