Dangerously Attractive
A serial killer is targeting Detective Vanessa Connor's oldest friends, and evidence--the sicko left his calling card in her home--shows she's the next victim. But Vanessa refuses to run scared. She's a cop. And she's determined to make full use of her years on the force to trap the murderer herself.
So when a federal agent is assigned to protect her and catch the perp, Vanessa isn't exactly cooperative. She doesn't need a bodyguard--particularly one as dangerously attractive, dangerously seductive as Rick Maguire. His powerful arms make Vanessa feel safer than she wants to admit. Especially when the killer gets close enough to cross them both off his list.

About the author
Jenna Ryan
95 books128 followersJenna Ryan was born in Victoria, British Columbia. After long stints in different cities across Canada, she returned home to Vancouver Island where she has lived ever since. She has had thirty-one books published in the Harlequin Intrigue series. Her ideas come from real life, and she is helped in her writing by her sister Kathy.
She enjoys reading and is a big fan of women's fiction, psychological suspense and mystery novels. She also enjoys watching classic suspense movies. She loves strong heroines, heroes with character, romance stories and a good whodunit by the fire on a rainy night.
Her heritage is a blend of English and Irish — which is probably where the gift of blarney comes from. She is unmarried, but involved with a wonderful man. She also has a little white cat named Sheena.
Whenever she is not writing, she travels as much as time and finances will allow. After North America, Europe is her favorite continent to explore, because it was in those countries that many of the myths and legends she drew upon in her early years of writing were born.
Growing up, she considered various careers and dabbled in several of them, including, after university, the travel industry, tourism, sales and modeling. Work in the fashion industry in Toronto and Montreal gave her an interesting peek into various aspects of that world. She learned that where money, power and people come together, there will always be unpredictability — an element she feels is essential to a strong mystery. Add a healthy measure of personal conflict, an intriguing setting and a spicy romance into the mix, and you have the ingredients for what she believes to be the best of all possible stories — a great romantic suspense.

A father and also a wife on revenge, 4 people murdered, one couple stalked, an informant named Bug, a godfather as a boss, a best friend who was the one that never fit in during college, blackmail between two old friends, a niece that was like a daughter, unexplained abortion, teacher that liked to flirt (and more) with his students, and finally a Fed who falls in love with a Detective + a Detective that falls in love with a Fed = a crazy few weeks, sad moments, and one forever love.
This one keeps you intrigued and going from the beginning, and I recommend it if you like lots of twists and intrigue!

Three of her friends from college had been murdered and SFPD detective Vanessa Connor is next. She knows it, her boss knows it, and the Feds know it as well. That’s why she’s assigned a bodyguard, gorgeous and sexy FBI Special Agent Rick Maguire.
Will he be her savior, or a fatal distraction?
This was yet another winner by Ms. Ryan. Boy, am I glad when the hero and/or heroine don’t schlep any baggage along. This was a wonderful and twisty story of suspense and romance mixed together one San Franciscan summer with its heat and sudden electric storms.
Gripping suspense, great tension both outside and inside the bedroom, a wonderful and strong heroine, a gorgeous, slightly bad-boy hero, and a surprising final twist...What more do you want?
