Tequila Midnight
She keeps people at arm’s length and booze within easy reach. When she’s hired to find a billionaire’s daughter, she’ll need more than tequila to survive the night.
Texas. Jessica Watts won’t let anyone hurt her again. Scarred from her parents’ corruption and lack of love, the hard-boiled cross-border dealmaker drowns her misery in the bottle and seals off her heart. But the tough-as-nails woman softens when a Mexican tycoon with shady connections begs her to locate his missing daughter.
Starting her search by interviewing the missing woman’s friends, Jessica wonders if she’s taken on a fool’s errand when her probing questions leave her beaten and drugged. And as the twisted trail leads from Boston to Central America, the stubborn sleuth fears that reaching her quarry might only make things violently worse.
Hunted by dangerous thugs and her own demons, can this dealmaker-turned-detective survive long enough to at last find peace?
Tequila Midnight is an R-rated suspense novel. If you like haunted heroines, gritty determination, and terrifying twists, then you’ll adore Kathryn Dodson’s riveting tale of redemption.
