Book Description
A male prostitute, a mangy cat, a murder and an obsession that threatens his career, his impending marriage and his life. Nothing is going as planned for Austin Glass. Austin Glass seems to have it all, A loving fiancee, a future with the FBI and a healthy sized trust fund. At least on the surface. He also has a grin and a wisecrack for every situation. But the smile he presents to the world hides a painful past he's buried too deeply to remember, and his quips mask bitterness and insecurity. Austin has himself and most of the whole world fooled-until he meets a redhead in a pair of bunny slippers. As events unfold in the biggest case of his life, Austin's carefully planned future unravels, and he finds himself pushed into making quick, life-changing decisions. But can he trust himself or anything he feels, when each event seems to be just a series of volatile reactions?
