Under Suspicion, With Child by Elle James

I'm enjoying this mini-series.  As one mystery is solved, more questions pop up.  Although the title is a little off, as the h isn't a suspect at all, this book has Detective Andrei Lagios, who's sister was a murder victim, falling for Jocelyne Baker, daughter of the innkeeper.  Her mother is a practicing witch, Jocelyne is a holistic healer, so look for herbs and natural remedies to feature in the suspense.

Back cover:  His mission: Capture the serial killer who ruined his life.  His distraction: One very pregnant-and very secretive-beauty...

As a cop, his job was to capture the killer who'd stirred fear in the citizens of fog-shrouded raven's Cliff.  But Andrei Lagios had his own agonizing reasons for bringing this criminal to justice.  And the return of beautiful, pregnant Jocelyne Baker was a distraction he couldn't afford.  Yet the moment her life-and that of her unborn child-was threatened, he insisted on working undercover and being her personal bodyguard.  Getting close to Jocelyne stirred a desire that pushed aside his pain.  But the unrevealed secrets of her well-guarded past made him suspect there was more to this homecoming than she claimed...

Excellence rating: **** - Very good

Steaminess: Romantic
