Hell On Heels (PJ Santini Series)

“PJ Santini is the love child of Janet Evanovich and Elmore Leonard.” - The Toronto Star (Rita Zekas)Quirky and witty, HELL ON HEELS: THE TV NEWS BUSINESS CAN BE MURDER is fast-moving recommended reading for those who crave danger and passion in life, but still want to be home by dinner. Welcome to blistering summertime in Buffalo, NY, scene of the crime. Thirty-three year old PJ Santini, TV news reporter and mildly successful private eye, is on a wild ride between men, her certifiable Sicilian family, and insufficient funds notices, ever since her husband died on her - literally. But good news, she’s inherited the juicy journalistic job of Gerald Sigmund (Siggy), a sleezy vestigative reporter who has vanished into thin air. Her first assignment is to find him, dead or alive. She’s also inherited his disgusting office, which holds a secret that’s worth her life. But she has no idea what that secret is, or who would kill her to get to it. All she knows is that she just threw up all over the most valuable piece of evidence. Her only comforts are Chianti, four-inch heels and chocolate. And two men. Fiercely protective Tango Daly is her mysterious, tanned, toned private detective boss, a martial artist with a para-legitimate past tucked lustily into seductive slacks and silk shirts. They play exhilarating mind games when her stilettos get caught in the thick carpet of his office. Upstairs, the place is equipped with more surveillance electronics than Cheyenne Mountain...and a bed with satin sheets. Lanky Johnny Renza is darkly handsome in his trademark cream linen suit, and the first boy PJ ever loved... over and over, all through high school. Now he’s a top-notch competitive crime reporter who gets away with plenty, because he still knows how to hotwire hert with fattening food. As her butt is about to get it own zip code, it’s getting harder to concentrate on staying alive.
