Tempting the Devil
by Patricia Potter

Patricia Potter never fails to grip her readers with breathless suspense. Now she's back with her signature blend of "exciting mystery [and] hot romance"(Fresh Fiction) —in a Southern thriller that's about to make headlines...

As a journalist, Robin Stuart once swore never to reveal her source. As an FBI agent, Ben Taylor once swore never to let reporters mess with justice. But they also swore never to let love get in the way of their careers—and some oaths are meant to be broken.

When three policemen are murdered, Ben is sure the cop-killers are linked to Hydra, the Southern Mafia he's been keeping tabs on—and he's not about to let Robin stick her nose where it doesn't belong. Then Robin gets vital information from a Deep Throat afraid for his life. Now, both sides of the law want her to out her source—and the Hydra wants her dead. But even though the two have butted heads more than once, chemistry crackles between Ben and Robin. And as their desire grows stronger, it makes them more vulnerable to the danger swirling around them...
