This novel is a contemporary romance set in the fashion world of New York. It has suspense, great characters, and lots of steam and sizzle. Plus fabulous shoes!  What's not to like?Sylvie Bissette is a fashion blogger using the name High-Heeled Wonder. Very few people know her blogger name, and being anonymous works to her advantage, Sylvie is not afraid to go after the kings and queens of fashion. But, she's been getting hate mail, starting out laughable, then becoming more threatening.Her family does not think it's at all laughable.  Her family consists of two fathers, Anton Bissette and Henry Collins who are fashion designers, and a sister Anya.  After being shifted from multiple foster homes, being adopted by these kind and loving men and her sister included, was a dream come true.Tony Falcon is a former police officer who started Maltese Security. He left the police force when his partner was killed, but not a day goes by that he doesn't search every lead to find his murderer.  Anton and Henry secretly hire Tony to watch Sylvie, but Tony has some secrets of his own. As he gets to know Sylvie, and care for her, his secrets start to haunt him.Tony learns quickly there is a genuine threat to Sylvie's life, with way too many suspects.  The action and suspense pick up quickly, and keep you guessing till the very last chapter, and I was still surprised! I loved this inside look at the fashion industry, and my favorite quote says it all. "Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world."  ~ Marilyn Monroe.
