Her Private Treasure

Malina Blair went from rising-star FBI agent to… er…cold-case officer in the backwoods of South Carolina-not exactly a hotbed of action. But when a smuggling investigation leads her to tranquil Palmer's Island, Malina inadvertently discovers one of the region's best-kept secrets: sexy, gorgeous attorney Carr Hamilton.
But even as their chemistry goes from fizzy to red-hot and explosive, Malina wonders if maybe she isn't getting in over her head. After all, she's just visiting-and the island's main attraction is also her prime suspect!
