Fool Me Once — Jade C. Jamison

Something's gotta give...but Codie Snow doesn't know if it needs to be her non-committal workaholic ex-boyfriend attorney Slade Sheppard or her unsatisfying job as a nursing assistant. Because even though the chemistry with Slade is off-the-charts hot and the job is a necessary evil, she doesn't know that she wants either.

Enter Pete Olsen, bad ass cop in charge of serving and protecting the town of Dalton, Colorado. Codie goes on a ride-along with Pete and sees the seedy underbelly of her town, witnessing the gamut -- from an amusing domestic dispute to a frightening meth lab explosion -- and she decides that law enforcement is not for her.

But Pete just might be.

When Codie learns that a supposed murder Pete investigated on the ride-along is actually a suicide, she poses as a religious fanatic in order to gain access to the controlling cult where the dead woman was discovered, hoping to find the truth. But has she instead set herself up to be murdered -- and will she figure out what's going on before she becomes a victim?
