WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD
Reliable and loyal, Dani Clayton was the kind of woman everybody wanted for a friend. It was friendship that led her to break into Rafe Sutherland's casino. She had to retrieve a fraudulent IOU, or someone she cared for would be in trouble. Perhaps it was illegal, but she couldn't let that stop her.
Rafe wasn't pleased to find a thief in his office, but when he realized just how unusual a thief Dani was, he made a decision. What Dani needed was a friend of her own--someone to keep her out of trouble, cherish her, love her. And he knew just the man. (from blurb on back of book)
