Books like Along for the Ride by Michelle M. Pillow

Megan Matthews, the sharp‑nerve detective celebrated for her impeccable intuition, has long turned her back on romance, choosing instead the thrill of solving crimes. When crime‑scene photographer Ryan Andrews discovers a photograph of her that sparks headlines, he becomes infatuated, and despite her refusal to engage, he pursues her relentlessly. Megan’s world is turned upside down when Ryan escalates his pursuit to blackmail, threatening to expose her past mistakes unless she agrees to marry him. With her career and integrity on the line, Megan must decide whether to succumb to his demands or fight for her independence. In this second installment of the Matthews Sisters series, the stakes are higher than ever, blending romance, humor, and a hint of erotica as Megan confronts the temptation of love while upholding justice.
