Finding Cleo: A Sensual Romantic Suspense

Australian Cleo Montford has spent the last two years working as a guide and interpreter in Helsinki, cocooned from the lies and betrayals of her past, then Australian author Jack Spencer wants to hire her. Not for sightseeing, but to research the story her internationally awarded journalist father was investigating when he was accidentally killed. Cleo's tempted. Is she brave enough to look the past in the eye and set herself free, or will she keep hiding?

Cleo was a confident adolescent who adored her father, until her mother explains after his death that he'd never loved Cleo. Cleo sees lies everywhere, but it's time to take her life back. She accepts Jack's job offer. She doesn't expect to find his mix of intelligence, stubbornness and charm so compelling, doesn't expect him to understand her dilemma hearing people talk about her father, doesn't expect to want to touch him—all the time.

Battling writer's block, Jack latches onto the old story of the long unsolved assassination of a Scandinavian PM as the basis for a thriller. Finding Hugo Montford's daughter in Helsinki strikes him as a good omen. That's before he discovers she has secrets making her doubt herself. She's smart, loyal, gorgeous, everything he's looking for in a woman, if only he can convince her to take a chance on him.

When people unhappy with the direction of his research threaten Cleo, Jack calls a halt. Sensing there's more to learn about her father, Cleo pushes to continue. Can Cleo and Jack agree on next steps, or will Cleo remain shackled to her past?

Sometimes you have to let go of what's killing you, even if it's killing you to let go.
