Kansas City Heat: Vol 4 — Jenna Byrnes

VanDoren's Vice A detective and the head of security at a casino have something in common, don't they? Perhaps more than one thing. Detective Mike VanDoren isn't much of a gambler, but the ongoing embezzlement at Kansas City's newest casino definitely has his interest. So does handsome Cole McKinney, the head of security at the Time and Tides. Mike dives head first into the case and a relationship with Cole, who can't believe that any of his trusted employees and friends could be guilty. Mike knows differently, and it's up to him and his team to figure out who's behind the elaborate scheme. When a casino employee turns up dead, the case takes a bizarre twist, leaving Mike scrambling to save the people he cares about most. Hyatt's Hunt Kansas City's latest serial killer suspect has just been released on a technicality. Can the homicide detective and the ADA work together to recapture the criminal? KCPD Homicide's newest detective, Jed Hyatt, apprehends a drug addict wanted for the gruesome murder of a local real estate agent. The man as much as admits the pretty woman isn't his first victim. Before Jed has a chance to question him, the suspect's lawyer gets him released on a technicality. Shocked and frustrated, Jed butts heads with the Assistant District Attorney assigned to the case, Brody Carpenter. Brash but sexy as hell, Brody lashes out at Jed for sloppy police work. He suggests the officers keep digging, and bring him any information they can uncover. In private, Brody's interested in another type of 'under the covers' activity. Jed's intrigued but concerned because the men are so different, yet Brody insists opposites attract. In a race to solve the case before anyone else is hurt, Jed discovers in a terrifying way that his actions have consequences, sometimes very dire ones.
