Creole Escape

Trista Darling has a prosperous, if small, book shop she adores. She doesn't want anything special from life other than to keep her skeletons locked in a closet and to see her niece graduate at the top of her class. Luke Dean enjoys a quiet life, only surfacing from his love affair with his job as a detective for New Orleans Police Department for family birthdays and holidays. Coming from a well-off family only enhances his desire to bring criminals to justice - and he has his sights set on the big ones. Sparks fly when Luke and Trista first meet, but as they get to know one another, Luke senses a troubled past that nothing on the surface would reveal. As if called by the budding love in Trista's life, the skeletons of her past awaken, threatening more than her happiness - threatening the lives of those she loves.
