Police Business
by Julie Miller

While investigating a reported crime, Detective A. J. Rodriguez discovered there wasn't a trace of any murder having been committed! But hearing-impaired heiress Claire Winthrop insisted she'd stumbled upon a slain employee in her father's high-rise building and claimed she could ID the hit man. Although the lack of evidence pointed to an open-and-shut case of a pampered socialite clamoring for attention, A.J. sniffed a deadly cover-up.

Powerfully drawn together, the street-tough lawman soothed the shell-shocked princess with a tantalizing kiss that bewitched both their hearts. However, when A.J. pulled Claire into his dark, dangerous world, he knew he'd better stick to police business—or the killer could permanently silence his beloved witness....

Kansas City's finest valiantly risk it all to protect their own!

Julie Miller's Bio

Born and raised in Missouri, Julie now lives in Nebraska. She attributes her passion for writing romance to the fairy tales she read growing up, and shyness. Her family encouraged her to write down all those feelings she couldn't express and she soon developed a love of the written word. Today, she gets continued support from her fellow members in PRW, her husband Scott, and son Ryne.

Inspired by the likes of Agatha Christie and Encyclopedia Brown, she believed the only thing better than a good mystery was a good romance. She decided to combine the two and began writing for Harlequin Intrigue in 1999. She loves writing gritty, action-packed, emotionally-compelling stories.

With ten published books to her credit, Julie will add to that tally in 2003 with the release of four new novels from Harlequin Intrigue and Harlequin Blaze.
