Douglas & Steele Michael Stephens

Heather Douglas was ecstatic when her ringing phone brought her out of a horrific daydream from her childhood. But, the phone call from her long-time friend turned billionaire matriarch was not about the two of them catching up on old times. Hired by Angelica Stewart, Heather and her sister, Alex, owners of a small but successful private investigative firm, find themselves on the redeye to New Orleans to investigate Angelica's daughter, Katie, who went missing from her bachelorette. Concerned with how Alex's vivacious and carefree behavior will mix with New Orleans, Heather learns that Angelica's husband, Terry, has hired his own private investigator for the same job. The sisters and their mysterious private investigator, Nathan Steele, must join forces, locate Katie, discretely during Mardi Gras. Heather's unnerved by the newly formed collaboration forced on her agency as she's both attracted and repelled by her new partner-and Alex's unexplainable infatuation with him. Together, they embark on a journey as they piece together lies, alibis, evidence, and betrayal in hopes to locate Katie... alive.
