Trouble in Bayou Sabine — Lauren Faulkenberry

Louisiana gets a whole lot hotter in this spellbinding story of secrets, betrayal, and seduction.

When Enza Parker inherits her estranged grandmother's house, it dredges up a haunting mystery -- and puts her in the path of the most alluring man she's ever met.

For Enza, Bayou Sabine means pain and heartache: a mother who left her and a father whose lies have caught up with him. Her only fondness for the bayou comes from the summers she spent there with her grandmother, Vergie. Now that Vergie's gone, Enza wants to flip the house and put her past to rest -- but this small town is full of big secrets -- and it has one more surprise for her.

When Enza finds her grandmother's house occupied by sexy firefighter Jack Mayronne, she wants to kick him out. But Jack turns on the charm and convinces her to let him stay in exchange for helping her flip the house. Sparks fly as they share the same roof, and as their fling intensifies, Enza learns that Jack has dangerous secrets of his own. When the truth about her mother's disappearance begins to surface, Enza must decide: how much is she willing to sacrifice to start over -- and can she trust Jack with her heart?
