About this ebook

“Great romantic thriller. Gritty, realistic, and yet deeply romantic.” —New York Times bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz.

Evidence that a notorious criminal is hiding out in a small, seaside town in rural Maine leads to an FBI agent going undercover in this new Romantic Thriller from New York Timesbestselling author Toni Anderson.

Grady Steel returns to the insular community of Deception Cove, Maine, where he spent his troubled youth unfairly labeled the town’s bad boy. Now a member of the FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team, Grady is on a risky undercover mission, hunting one of the FBI’s Most Wanted fugitives.

Recovering from a broken marriage, Brynn Webster comes home to the sleepy small town—where nothing ever happens—to help her parents run their seaside cafe during her mother’s illness. After diving into the frigid waters of the winter harbor to rescue a dead man, Brynn begins to realize that the ocean isn’t the only place swirling with dangerous undercurrents.

Grady befriends the pretty manager of the local cafe in an effort to unearth the town’s closely guarded secrets. Deceiving Brynn isn’t easy, though, especially when he starts to fall for her. Then, when decades-old crimes lead to modern-day murder, Grady’s mission becomes a race against time as he strives to catch a ruthless killer—before Brynn becomes the next victim.

All the books can be read as standalone titles. Hot romantic stories with thrilling plots and guaranteed happily ever afters—they do contain strong language and steamy times. For fans of Melinda Leigh, Anna Hackett, Mary Burton, and Janie Crouch.

COLD SNAP is the third instalment in Toni Anderson’s contemporary, adult COLD JUSTICE-MOST WANTED erotic, romantic suspense series- a spin off, set in the author’s Cold Justice series. This is FBI Operator Grady Steel, and graphic designer/café owner Brynn Webster’s story line. The premise is intriguing, captivating and twisted; the characters are animated and energetic; the romance is seductive and provocative.

This is an exciting rollercoaster ride full of unexpected turns & gripping drama. There’s plenty of suspenseful action and intrigue, complete with unexpected twists that will have you hooked. There are plenty of “bad guys” in this with its “whodunit” element to keep you on your toes. The budding romance between the MCs with its ups & downs & moments of heartbreak, adds another layer of depth to this intensely captivating tale that will surely keep you turning pages, reading late into the night.

Toni Anderson has once again created a believable world with multifaceted characters. Small towns are noted for everyone being in everyone else’s business. Preconceived prejudices are blessing for Grady Steel’s assignment. He just never expected to find love. Cold Snap is about an intriguing, suspenseful undercover operation to locate and apprehend former FBI Agent Eli Kane who has been on the run for 27 years. Although Cold Snap is a story that is steeped with betrayal, murder and deception,
