A Thick Black Line — Judah Raine

Bold, confident and successful, Bo Charmichael is a self-made woman, once who has overcome tragedy and betrayal and earned the respect of her community. Driven to succeed by a deep-seated need to provide for her family, she has drawn a thick black line around her heart and her life, and allows nothing to cross it. Until Nic Sinclaire, that is. Forced into close proximity by a bizarre chain of events that erode the carefully laid foundation of her life, Bo finds herself turning to her self-appointed bodyguard and business partner. As the danger escalates and sinister forces combine to destroy her, the thick black line between her and Nic is smudged and distorted by the chemistry that rages between them. Bo's safe, familiar world seems set for destruction-by crime, by passion, or perhaps by her own choices.
