She's eager to see everything that has changed in her absence and to start the next chapter of her life. When her dear friend and traveling companion Delphine Collins goes missing without a trace in Chinatown, Lucy realizes she's in a unique position to help, and she decides to apply to become a Pinkerton agent. Jed Green isn't sure what he thinks about ladies joining the agency. He knows from personal experience that it's dangerous work, and he can't imagine putting a woman in those kinds of situations. When he's asked to train a new female agent, he agrees reluctantly, but when he's asked to marry her for propriety's sake? That's another thing altogether - a preposterous thing. Before Jed and Lucy can concentrate on their case, they must discover if they can work together. Then they must resolve their new feelings so they can work on the case. An Agent for Lucy is book one of an exciting new series featuring Pinkerton agents and their brides. Be sure to grab every one of them! less

Matthew Harrison, Pinkerton agent, has always prided himself on being ready and willing to accept any case he's assigned. He's a team player, after all. But when his new partner, a pretty young female agent from the Chicago office, shows up to escort him to their assignment in Santa Fe, he's not at all sure what to make of her. He's never met anyone so focused on being prim, proper, and precise, and he believes she just might be the most irritating woman he's ever met... moreMatthew Harrison, Pinkerton agent, has always prided himself on being ready and willing to accept any case he's assigned. He's a team player, after all. But when his new partner, a pretty young female agent from the Chicago office, shows up to escort him to their assignment in Santa Fe, he's not at all sure what to make of her. He's never met anyone so focused on being prim, proper, and precise, and he believes she just might be the most irritating woman he's ever met. Esmerelda Carter has one objective, and one objective only - to reach Santa Fe, find the missing agent they've been sent to find, and turn in her report. She doesn't have time for fun and games, and she certainly doesn't have time to entertain thoughts about her handsome new partner. Yes, the case does require that they get married, but that's temporary, and soon they'll be parting ways again. But the case isn't what it seems, and soon they're depending on each other for their very lives . . . which does have a way of bringing people closer together. less
