C.J. Carmichael (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 12, 2010

Lindsay Fox and Nathan Fisher couldn't be more different. In fact, she knew after her one-year stint with the NYPD, she'd driven her former partner as crazy as he'd driven her. He was even part of the reason she left the force, although she'd never admit that to him! So she's more than a little surprised when Nathan answers her ad for a new investigator.

Working together now they discover a delicious chemistry beneath their differences. Could they actually become more than partners? Then they take on the challenge of an unusual case--one that reminds Lindsay of her own painful past. Her instinct is to push Nathan away. But can she take a bigger risk and let him in?

More About the Author

In another life I was a chartered accountant, but the writing bug hit me hard, and now, as I am about to become an "empty-nester", I realize that I will soon be publishing my 30th book with Harlequin.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fast paced romantic mystery, May 21, 2011

This review is from: Perfect Partners? (Harlequin Superromance, Fox & Fisher Detective Agency) (Mass Market Paperback)

This was a fast paced, romantic mystery with characters I grew to really care about. While the mystery was present it didn't overwhelm the romance, and the flawed heroine does gradually learn to accept love in a believable way. I enjoy Carmichael's books and would recomment her to people who want romance with a dash of mystery.

5.0 out of 5 stars exhilarating investigative romance, January 14, 2010

This review is from: Perfect Partners? (Harlequin Superromance, Fox & Fisher Detective Agency) (Mass Market Paperback)

When his superiors at the NYPD 20th precinct failed to back him in a legitimate use of force due to the victim's father being influential and powerful, Nathan Fisher quits the police force. He answers an ad from his former partner Lindsay Fox who seeks an investigator for her private investigation firm. She reluctantly agrees to hire him as long as he understands she is in charge. He accepts her terms.

Nathan tries to prove to her he can do the job. Celia Buchard hires them to help prove her mom Audrey did not mean to shoot her spouse Maurice accidentally in the butt; he says he tried to kill her while she cannot remember the incident. As Lindsay and Nathan fall in love, her fear of relationships may end their partnership before it can gel.

This is an exhilarating investigative romance starring two fascinating Perfect Partners? Nathan loved being a cop so when the leadership failed to back him even with his being shot, his disenchantment is palpable. Lindsay has relationship issues as she prefers going alone when she breaks rules, which is why she left NYPD after only a year. Their falling in love may not be enough for this pair to truly partner professionally and personally as C.J. Carmichael provides a deep character driven contemporary.
