Synopsis
“When truth is buried underground it grows, it chokes, it gathers
such an explosive force that on the day it bursts out, it blows up
everything with it.” – Émile Zola, J’accuse
In this thrilling romantic noir
suspense, DEA agent David Alvarez invested four years in deep undercover
infiltrating the ruthless Sonora Drug Cartel only to have his primary
target gunned down by a rival gang. Now his only hope in salvaging the
operation and bringing the largest drug trafficker in the world to
justice lies with the man’s beautiful, young widow Catherine, whom he
cannot bring himself to trust.
Catherine would do anything to break
free from the clutches of the cartel, but despite her desperate efforts,
she can never escape the mistakes of her past that continue to haunt
her.
Even though he cannot deny their
mystical, mutual attraction, David must carry out his orders – from both
the DEA and the Cartel – catching Catherine in a spider web of
duplicity and deceit. How far will David go to bring down the cartel?
If he succeeds in winning the widow’s trust, would he be willing to risk
her life – or his heart?

About the Author
Colette has been writing poems, short stories, and novellas since
grade school and experienced early success in having several of her
poems published in her junior high school newspaper. Her interest in
literature led her to marry her college English professor, but
eventually a love of history encouraged her to trade up to a British
historian.
Technical writing has dominated Colette’s career for the past twenty
years; but finding little room for creativity in that genre, she
dedicated fifteen months traveling to Europe and Britain, researching
Regency England and vampire lore and literature, to complete her first
full-length novel, Pulse and Prejudice (Austenprose Readers’ Choice: Top 5 Books of 2012) - the bestselling paranormal adaptation of the Jane Austen classic, which tells the story of Mr. Darcy, Vampire. Pulse and Prejudice was also selected the 2013 1st Place Winner in Category: Chatelaine Awards Romantic Fiction.
Colette was named “Debut Author of 2012″ by Austenprose and selected a
2013 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award Semi-finalist for her novel The Proud and the Prejudiced (abriged as All My Tomorrows),
which was also selected the 2013 “Favorite Modern Adaptation” by
Austenesque Reviews and voted a “Top Ten Romance Novel of 2012″ (P&E
Reader’s Poll).
Colette’s latest release, the romantic thriller Alicia’s Possession,
was the publisher’s #1 Bestselling Romantic Suspense for 4 straight
weeks following its debut in June of 2013 and then again in January,
2014, after being voted a “Top Ten Romance Novel of 2013″ (P&E
Reader’s Poll).
Her next release is the romantic noir thriller, The Widow, and she is currently researching and writing a sequel to Pulse and Prejudice entitled Dearest Bloodiest Elizabeth, which follows the newlywed Vampire Darcy and his bride Elizabeth from Britain to Antebellum New Orleans.
Colette lives in South Louisiana with her historian husband and their two dogs.
