One Smart Cookie Joanna Blalock

One Sexy WomanIt's no longer possible to tell a bad guy by the color of his hat in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and this high desert city has recently been plagued by gangs and serial killers. The Duke City is also home to private investigator Cookie Baker, who isn't above using her centerfold looks to acquire information for her clients. One Big DogCookie's constant companion Big Baby Fluff is an over-sized Husky/Chow mix who only understands German, but when given a secret command, Fluff can morph into The Fluffanator. One Guy Too ManySince the age of seven, Cookie has been torn between two hot-blooded males except for the ten years she was away in NYC modeling. During that time, Angelo "Lucky" Cerecedo became a decorated undercover cop while millionaire Jesse James "Cowboy" became a law unto himself. Jesse is now her PI partner, but Cookie tries to keep the playing field equal between the two highly competitive best friends because she hasn't decided which guy she wants to do--as in "I do take thee."One Explosive CaseIt started out as simple adultery and all Cookie needed to do was catch one cheating hubby on film. She did not expect to be shot at, knocked unconscious or to wind up having to wear an old red and black football helmet. Nor had she expected her mark--a criminal defense attorney--to have secreted something too horrible to think about within the trunk of his car. Her undercover detective boyfriend warns her to drop the case. However a young teen is involved, and Cookie can't back off until she knows the girl is safe. As Cookie digs deeper, Albuquerque explodes into escalating violence. Though she breaks stilettos at a rapid clip, she evades her share of bullets, bombs and butcher knives as she seeks to flush a killer into the light.
