Undercover Match

Lu Branson will do whatever it takes to get her man…even appear on a reality TV dating show, pretending to be in search of her Perfect Match. Research scientist Jace James holds a top-secret security clearance, but he hasn't held a woman in years. His work at a clandestine government laboratory in Los Alamos makes dating impossible so the high-tech matchmaking protocol used by Perfect Match sounds like the ideal solution to his problem. Add in the allure of an upscale tropical destination, and he's all in. To her fellow FBI agents, Lucille "Lu" Branson is just one of the guys. She earned her kick-ass reputation by taking the worst assignments, collaring the worst criminals and out-drinking, out-swearing and out-smarting anyone with XY chromosomes. She doesn't think twice about accepting her new assignment until she discovers it will require her to go undercover as a contestant on a reality TV dating show. Kicking her stiletto-clad feet and screaming obscenities all the way to Mimosa Key, Lu tries to ignore the curious emotions triggered by the frilly, feminine cover required for the assignment. It doesn't take Lu long to figure out her target has been setup…and not by the TV producers. What was supposed to be a straightforward investigation soon turns into a risky game of cat-and-mouse as she tries to identify who's behind the false allegations against Jace. Lu has no idea how far she'll have to go to save her target, her career and her heart. *** This story is set in a world based on Roxanne St. Claire's Barefoot Bay Series; it is published with the permission of Roxanne St. Claire.
