Against the Law
by B. J. Daniels, Kat Martin

A fan-favorite from New York Times bestselling author Kat Martin.

At thirty-two, Dev is “mostly retired” from Raines Investigations, content to run operations from his sprawling Arizona home. But Dev has never been able to say no to a beautiful woman, so when Lark Delaney comes to him for help, the former U.S. Army Ranger from Wind Canyon gets back in the game.

Lark is sexy, successful and dedicated to tracking down the baby girl her sister gave up for adoption. It should be a straightforward case, but it’s not long before Dev uncovers a shady adoption ring and worse—the child’s parents have been murdered and the little girl has been taken.

As the case grows dangerous and Lark needs him more than ever, Dev can’t ignore his growing attraction for her. He also can’t trust his judgment with women or the emotions he’s long-since buried. But there’s a chance, if he gets this right and saves Lark’s niece, that he’ll end up saving himself, too.

Originally published February 2011 and reissued March 28, 2017 in mass market paperback and eBook by MIRA Books and Harlequin.

B. J. Daniels' Bio

All I ever wanted to be was a writer. I remember at age eight making that decision. But it would take me years before I admitted it to anyone else.

My father always told me I could be anything I wanted. And I believed him. I worked first at a newspaper as a feature's writer and later an editor. I sold my first short story to Woman's World in 1987. That day is one of the most exciting days of my life. My first fiction sale! A dream come true.

I sold another 35 short stories before I wrote and sold my first book, ODD MAN OUT, set in West Yellowstone, Montana where I grew up. "Romantic Times" gave the book 4 1/2 stars and nominated it for Best First Book and Best Intrigue for 1995. Most of my books are set in my home state of Montana. Others take me back to my Texas roots, the place I was born.

When I'm not writing, I'm playing. My husband and I love to travel, camp and boat. In the winter, I snowboard (who says you have to be a kid to snowboard). Every chance I get, I read. I love books. I love stories that take me away, that surprise and scare me, that make me laugh and cry. Those are the kind of books I try to write.

Lately, when not sitting in front of the computer, I've found myself sitting in front of my sewing machine. I love food. I love being creative. So, I figured why not make aprons. Please check out the 'Contest' link to find out more and even purchase your own B.J. Daniels apron.
