Summary: A small town comes to life...
Comment: Life in Majestic, Colorado is boring for Deputy Lanie Prescott. When she gets the chance to move to another law enforcement job out of town, she jumps at it. Yet, on the night of her send off party, the offer falls through, leaving her stuck in Majestic, unemployed, and with a broken leg acquired trying ot apprehend a suspect. Still, Lanie makes the best of things, made easier when her replacement turns out to be handsome and charming Paul Caberra.
Paul finds life in star struck, quiet Majestic just what he needs to soothe the ache of an unresolved case he left in Miami. He never meant to romance Lanie, especially knowing she is only there temporarily. As neighbors in a duplex, though, the two find they have much in common. Friendship quickly becomes something more, but their time is limited.
*** Ms. Holm, like fellow Mira author, Debbie Macomber, brings a small town to life in her charming romance. Though light on action and suspense, it is long on laughter and warmth. ***

Summary: Fine romatic suspense
Comment: After four years on the Majestic, Colorado police force with no opportunities to prove her worth, Lanie Prescott accepts a job with the Ludlow Police Department. However, the night before she is to leave, a civil rights case filed by her predecessor holds up her reassignment. A stunned Lanie meets her replacement Paul Cabrera; the former Miami cop burned out from working domestic dispute cases. After putting her foot in her mouth she goes to her car only to see someone stealing her stereo. She gives chase in heels and breaks her foot.
Majestic Police Chief Herb Deutsch may be a chauvinist when it comes to police work, but provides filing tasks that enable Lanie to bring in some income. As Paul begins to see her, Lanie falls in love with him and though she appreciates his show of support and belief that she can perform the duties of a real cop, she plans to go elsewhere to prove he is right.
Fans of police procedurals that provide insight into how a small town department operates will enjoy this tale that includes a romantic subplot. Though the action is somewhat limited, broken ankle chase and all, the story line provides a deep look at Lanie and Paul, but also enables the audience to see how Chief Deutsch feels especially about a female cop on his team. The love story between the two officers adds warmth to this life of a cop tale.
