When Sean Beringer was a police officer, he arrested Donata Casale for aiding a mobster. Donata was working undercover and had decided to turn her lover/mobster in already. Now, Donata is a detective in the NYPD and Sean is a private investigator. Sean wants Donata to back off of a case he's investigating but Donata has no intention of doing so. Both Donata and Sean have a personal interest in the adult film making case that has underage girls being exploited. Both Sean's sister and Donata herself are personally involved.

The attraction they had for each other is too much to ignore now, but they need to stop the criminal before Donata loses more than just her career.

Don't Look Back is a sexy and romantic crime drama. Donata is both feminine and tough and Sean's good looks and take-charge attitude are very sexy. Don't Look Back is a story with strong emotions and an intriguing mystery.

This book is a page-turner - very strong hero and heroine, great story line, suspenseful, and of course, crackling chemistry. I loved Sean - finally an ex-cop who's not depressed and dejected. He's an "ex" cop because he wants to do things HIS way. Sean and Donna make a great pair.

NYPD Detective Donata Casale learned a life lesson that men will use, abused and discard you before telling stories of their conquests; so after her reputations was guttered, she focused on her career. She has since overcome her infamous past as a loose woman and works hard to continue her career progression.

However, she is irate when a "reality adult films" porno case lands on her lap as she believes the brass wants to embarrass her by reminding everyone of her sordid past. Still she begins the investigation, but becomes even more upset when private investigator Sean Beringer demands in on her inquiries as he claims his sister was a victim of the producer. Donata and Sean have a shared past and a present attraction, neither of which she wants to deal with as her career comes first.

Donata and Sean turn this fascinating police procedural romance into a great tale. The action-packed story line grips the audience from the moment an upset Donata begins her case only to have Sean demand in; initially she assumed the investigation, but he wants much more. DON'T LOOK BACK superbly merges a heated love subplot with a deep official police investigation.
