title: Lost in Deception
author: DeVito, Anita
description: Private investigator Esmeralda “Peach” Morales watches in horror as the crane her uncle is operating topples into Lake Erie. He disappears and she's convinced he'll be the scapegoat. She'll do anything to prove he's innocent. Seducing the lead investigator is just part of her strategy, at least that's what she tells herself.
  
  Thomas Riley is at Elderberry Farm when he learns of a deadly crane accident in Cleveland. The forensic investigator suspects sabotage and amid the rubble and mangled metal he uncovers a web of lies and deception. At the center of it all is a beautiful brunette who always seems to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.
  
  Both fiercely independent, they must learn to work together -- inside and outside the bedroom -- to unravel the mystery and clear her uncle's name.
