Once a Thief
by Doreen DeSalvo

The good girl -- She's worked hard to leave her ghetto roots behind. Now a successful district attorney with a reputation to uphold, Katherine can't afford to let go and indulge her secret desires.

The bad boy -- Ex-convict Jake Monroe remembers Kate as an uptight, prissy teenager. Seeing her again makes him want to live out every kinky fantasy he's ever had -- with her.

They have nothing in common but a difficult past...and a taste for forbidden pleasures that may ruin them both. Jake's determined to tear down Kate's walls, to push her past her limits. But Kate takes him further than he ever imagined.

Having experienced her own personal fairy tale, she can think of no career more rewarding than writing passionate love stories.
