About TRULY, MADLY, DEADLY (Valentine Mysteries #6):

Tess Valentine’s only goals for her trip to her home city of San Francisco are to legally take over her trust and to show her sexy husband, Jack Valentine, the sights of the city. She certainly has no plans of visiting her parents, who have resented her since her grandfather gave her the trust money her parents thought should go to them. When her parents invite her to dinner, Tess reluctantly agrees, despite her concerns that her parents may once again resort to unscrupulous tactics to try and take her trust. The last thing she expects on her visit is for her father to be arrested for the murder of his mistress.

Tess has no intention of helping her father despite her mother’s pleas. But when her cousin, the lawyer Tess’ father hires to represent him and the one family member who’d ever been nice to Tess, asks for Tess’ help in the case, she agrees to investigate. Turns out several people could have wanted her father’s mistress dead, including the victim’s sister, a disgruntled employee, and even Tess’ mother, who is all of a sudden very cozy with Tess’ trust lawyer. But as Tess and Jack get closer to the truth, a murderer’s obsession is prepared to stop them.

Excerpt:

They were standing in the middle of the bar, but no one was paying attention. And even if they were, she wouldn’t care. She reached as best she could with the height difference and looped her arms around his neck and pulled. He wrapped his arms around her and lifted, which allowed her to hold him tighter.

“What’s this for?” His lips brushed her neck, causing her to rethink their plans. Maybe they could just go upstairs and get naked.

“I’m sorry for earlier.”

He lifted his head, his eyes searching hers. “For what?”

“For getting a little hysterical over you trying to create a bridge between me and Catherine.”

He shook his head. “No, I should have—”

She gave him a quick kiss to quiet him. “I should have recognized that you were only trying to help. You love me.”

“With everything I’ve got.” He leaned his forehead against hers.

“I need to do better to remember that before going off half-cocked.”

“You were fully cocked.”

Her eyes narrowed. She leaned in lightly, bit his lip, then shimmied down his body, making sure to press against his most intimate part, until her feet were back on the floor. “Now who’s cocked?”

“You’re cruel.” But he winked and put a hand on her back as they made their way to the door. “You’re going to take care of it later though, right?”
