Tango and Lace (The Hard Men of the Rockies #2)

Six thousand miles couldn't sever their connection...

World renowned geoarcheologist Jackson Whiteside has come home to Colorado to care for his grandmother and teach at CSU...not to rekindle the passionate, but doomed love affair with gramma's high-spirited neighbor whose memory has haunted him half-way across the globe. But the moment he sees his feisty, melodramatic ex, his cortisol levels spike. And he damn well knows he's about to unearth more layers of their relationship...whether his neurotransmitters like it or not.

If there's one thing dancer and dispatch operator Mya Castillo can do well, it's Tango. But dancing with her feet is one thing...dancing with her heart is another. Especially when she has no choice but to accept her ex-- the world's most unintentionally sexy professor--as her stand-in partner for the biggest performance of her life.

Jack's two-year scientific immersion has kept a tight lid on his right-brained proclivities, but his irritatingly illogical gut is telling him the attack on Mya's dance partner jeopardizes more than just her dance studio. It bodes evil toward the woman he still loves beyond reason, so this is one dance he won't sit out.
