Sins That Haunt
by Lucy Farago
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Romantic Suspense
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
The glitz and glamour
of Las Vegas hide a multitude of sins. And in Lucy Farago’s show-stopping
series, a lawyer and an FBI agent take a walk on the seedy side, where greed
breeds a deadly desperation...
Civil attorney Shannon Joyce walks the line of law and order, but she learned from day one how to put up a good front—thanks to her con man father. Thirteen years ago, she left the east coast and her life of crime behind. Her high school sweetheart, Noah, was collateral damage, but some things can’t be helped. But now there’s no escape when her past comes roaring down the Strip—in the oh-so-tempting form of the man she left behind...
Special Agent Noah Monroe has Shannon exactly where he wants her—in the back of his car in handcuffs. Her grifter father has been murdered, and the FBI needs Shannon to keep one of his scams in play to bag the big bad guy who was financing him. Once again a pawn in someone’s else game, Shannon will have to trust her instincts to survive both the peril threatening her—and the passion Noah reignites…

Excerpt One:
They eventually stopped at the last place she’d expected.
The airport. Noah got out of the car and got in the backseat with her.
“What’s going on?” She should be sitting in an interrogation
room, not visitors’ parking at the airport. “Is my father really dead?”
May God have mercy on her soul, but she hoped so.
Noah nodded once.
“How did he die?”
He lifted a dark eyebrow.
“Cut it out. You know damn well I didn’t kill him.” She
didn’t lie, not anymore. “Am I glad he’s gone to a far worse place?” She
shrugged. He’d not only screwed up her life but countless others’. His victims
were in the thousands, if not more. “But when I left him, he was alive.” Not
very happy but alive.
“When would that be?” he asked.
She considered telling him to go take a swim in
shark-infested waters, then thought better of it. She had nothing to hide. “Two
days ago.”
“What did the two of you discuss?”
“The weather,” she said. Jerk. No way would she admit to her
father extorting money from her. Thirteen years ago she’d have told Noah
everything. Thirteen years ago he hadn’t been a special agent assigned to a
task force that could put her behind bars.
“Shannon, even if you and I didn’t know you hated the guy,
the only time he ever talked to you was to coerce you into one of his schemes.
So what was it this time?”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
Lucy Farago knows there is nothing like a happy sigh
at the end of a good book. With the encouragement of her loving husband, she
wrote her first manuscript. An unpublished historical, it sits in a file on her
computer, there to remind her how much fun she had learning the craft and
becoming part of an industry whose books make you believe anything is possible.
A big fan of Agatha Christie, she set out to write her first romantic suspense
novel. Thrilled to be a published author, Lucy also teaches yoga, enjoys cooking,
and saying what other people are thinking. In her fantasy world, her beautiful
Siberian husky, Loki, doesn’t shed and her three kids clean up after
themselves. Alas, that fantasy will never see fruition.
