Hot Cop Box Set
Strip clubs, kidnappings, the mafia, and undercover missions — it’s all here in the first three books in national bestselling author Karin Tabke’s sizzling Hot Cops series!
Book One: Good Girl Gone Bad
Philamina Zorn is a straight-laced, by-the-book cop working in internal affairs, and this time it’s landed her an undercover job at a gentleman’s club.
Jaded vice cop Ty Jamerson has been forced to work with her, but makes it apparent he’d rather see her handing out parking tickets than working his case.
But as they enter the sordid world of exotic dancers, murder, and kidnapping, these two hot cops discover that if they want to survive, they’ll have to strip more than just their inhibitions.
Book Two: Skin
Feisty Francesca Donatello needs the sexiest man on the planet to launch her magazine SKIN.
Undercover cop Reese Bronson needs the job to infiltrate the Donatello organized crime family.
While Reese sheds his clothes and Francesca captures it on film for her magazine, someone decides that Francesca belongs with her mob-boss father -- dead. On the run from San Francisco to Wyoming, they dodge bullets and learn that trusting each other is the only way to stay alive.
Book Three: Jaded
Turned out at fourteen by her mother, Ruby Leigh Gentry has a dark past that she will do anything to keep there.
Burned-out, cynical detective Jase Vaughn gets a job involving a sexual predator whose killings lead him to the door of the one woman who can break the case wide open: Jade Deveraux, the sultry proprietress of Callahan’s, a blue-blood gentleman’s club.
But Jade (a.k.a. Ruby Leigh) knows the same secrets as the killer. Are they one and the same ... or is she the next victim?

This book series follows several undercover cops . I enjoyed reading these cases that keep you guessing until the end. I also loved reading about them meeting the love of their lives when they never thought it was in the cards for them.
