Samantha's Viking

What's a hero to do?Detective Thomas Tanner doesn't always play by the rules when it comes to crime-busting, but his arrest record is the envy of the department, and he takes pride in his reputation for getting the job done. So when his identity is stolen and FBI Agent Nathan Cuddy shows up at headquarters with accusations of Internet fraud via a romance scam, Tanner goes ballistic. Cuddy, Tanner's nemesis is not above twisting the facts to get to Thomas, but the complaint against him is right there in black and white, claiming he bilked one Samantha Savage out of ten grand... and Thomas knows there's only one way to set things right. He has to reason with Ms. Savage, and get her to drop the charges....Storm the castle. Save the damsel in distress... sort of....Samantha Savage is a romance novelist with an avid following and a love of all things Viking. Her series The Naked Norsemen was a huge hit. The residents of Jenna's Cove, Maine think she's glamorous, a romantic and somewhat mysterious figure, but they don't know about Sammy's crazy ex-husband, or that she triple-locks her doors the moment the sun goes down. The last thing gun-shy Sam wants is a romance, but when her best friend Jilly buys her a membership to an online dating service, she stumbles onto the perfect guy, and falls hard. Swedish, big, blonde, and handsome, with perpetual sunburn, Thomas Tanner steals her heart, and then walks away with her life's savings.So, when the Thomas Tanner--the gorgeous guy who stole her heart and her money--shows up at her door, Sammy takes to the battlements and along with her little dog Pookie prepares to defend her home. The results are laugh out loud funny. Samantha's Viking (formerly entitled Love-Match.Com) is the second book in the Jenna's Cove Romance Series, sexy contemporary romances with quirky characters, and a touch of humor.
