Temptress is a short story originally featured in the best seller: Make Them Pay - A Thriller Anthology.

When local bars become the hot target for thieves, Detective Reyes is reminded that temptation comes in many forms.

Kent, Grady, and Red have the bait and switch routine down to a science. Although, Red is the newest member to the tiny crew, she's the biggest weapon in their arsenal. She's hot as sin and the poster child of distractions. Kent and Grady knew she was going to help them pilfer all the dive-bars in the town they'd set their sights on. It would be easy money with her in the spotlight.

There was just one small problem. They hit Lucky's bar first. A bar that was owned by the father-figure of Detective Reyes, of the Midland Law Enforcement Center.

Detective Ricky Reyes is on the hunt to catch the thieves that stole what wasn't theirs. Will he catch the band of thieves before they skip town? Will justice be served?
