Publisher's summary

The last thing Lacy Green needs is trouble - and handsome Mayor Drake Randolph has "danger" written all over him...especially when "His Fineness" accidentally runs her off the road. Despite Drake's sensuous charm, irresistible magnetism, and unwavering determination to make amends, she's thinking it might be smart to play it safe and keep her distance...if only his lips weren't so inviting.

But trouble comes from a different source when Lacy, as the head of Detroit's Environmental Protection Department, launches an investigation into the activities of a ruthless developer. Suddenly, Lacy becomes a target, dragged down into a swamp of greed, corruption...and murder. Now Drake Randolph might be the only one in Motown who can keep Lacy alive....

Spunky Heroine

I enjoy the stories of Beverly Jenkins. This is the first time I read one not based on the history and romantic perspective but more mystery and drama. It proved to me that her pen is so diverse.The narration was on point and between the story and the drama I remained intrigued.

Horrible narration

is there a way to return this and get my credit back? I love the story (have it in paperback) but the narration makes it un listenable. Please redo with a different narrator.

I love the story bit not so much the narrator..

I love the book so much but a bit let down by the narrators voice. I honestly would replay certain parts of over again because the voice would throw me off. But I did love the book. I like all three books ( The edge of midnight, The edge of dawn and Black lace) .

Black Lace

It’s a very good story about politics and the dirt that’s done in all communities in Urban areas. And a perfect love story
