Hard driving caterer Dori Connors finds herself in trouble when she allows Detective Matthews and his partner to work undercover at a party. When the host is arrested for a series of thefts, Dori's ex-husband, now the Assistant Commissioner of Police is intent upon seeing Dori included in the arrests.
Justice is a slippery slope. Grant Matthews suspects Dori is being railroaded by her ex. He works to uncover the truth. While he is attracted to the woman, he can't spare the time away from his sick daughter.
Grant may be drool-worthy, but he's a cop. Dori's experiences with the long arm of the law have left her bruised and battered.
Caught In The Middle by Nancy Brophy is a wonderful example of why I love romance novels. This story begins with an emotional tug and gets more colorful and dynamic as it unfolds. Grant and Dori become more whole and appealing at every twist and Emma evolves from an angel into a real little girl. Ms. Brophy brings a richness of color to the personalities and scenes that makes her stories stand out. I adored the way the suspense aspect was brought to resolution, such an enjoyable surprise.
CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE is a delightful novel by Nancy Brophy. Dori and Grant are loveable characters I cheered and worried for until the end. Little Emma - icing on the cake. This family was made for each other, and I was dabbing my eyes before I'd finished the book. I totally enjoyed reading their story.
