Heart of the Matter

Passionate Commitment
Affrica Bryant, newly elected Mayor of Passion, Michigan, has ambitious plans to clean up a shamefully rundown public housing project. Yet not everyone in Passion believes Affrica will make good on her campaign promise--especially Chief-of-Police Alex Bartholomew.

Dangerous Desire
Alex is skeptical about Affrica...until he sees her fierce determination to improve the lives of her constituents. But when a mystery over misplaced funds draws them both into a dangerous investigation, Affrica and Alex must put their trust in each other, if they--and their love--are to survive.
