Kate O'Connell poured every waking hour into earning a degree in investigative journalism. But now, instead of exposing corruption, she's tending bar at a run-down dive where her immoral boss fondles every co-ed within reach.

And then Sean walks in.

She knows she should stay far away. Ex-felon. Rippled muscles and toned fists. But there's something about those eyes. Something that, against everything sane and logical, connects deep within her. And she has no idea why.

Then his secret is ripped free from the dark shadows - and their lives teeter on the brink of destruction.

From the Author:

I adore Worcester, Massachusetts with all its gritty streets, rows of muted-colored three-deckers, and tough-as-nails can-do attitude. I've lived in this area since college, with only a few brief flings in other locations. No matter where else I travel, the powerful allure of Worcester pulls me home again. Worcester's a mere hour west of Boston, with many of the same traditions of Irish culture and fierce pride.

Enjoy a virtual trip to my beloved Worcester via Worcester Nights! I'd love to hear from you at my website at OpheliaSikes.com.
