Your Man in Rome

Jimmy D. Wheeler knows Rome better than most-and perhaps loves it more than he should.

An American expatriate and fixer, Jimmy has spent years navigating the city's hidden corridors of influence, solving problems that powerful people would rather keep buried. But when Americans are kidnapped and held for ransom, his knowledge of Rome makes him impossible for Homeland Security to ignore.

There is only one problem: every step Jimmy takes toward uncovering the truth puts his already fragile marriage at greater risk.

Chiara, his Italian wife, has lived too long with the danger that seems to follow her husband wherever he goes. She has reached the point where love may no longer be enough to keep her from walking away.

As Jimmy works to expose the forces behind the kidnappings, the investigation draws him back into the Rome of his past-the city where he first met Chiara, where passion once seemed limitless, and where promises were made that neither of them has ever truly forgotten.

Between hidden agendas, political power, ransom demands, and a criminal conspiracy that reaches deeper into Rome than Jimmy imagined, Jimmy must decide how far he is willing to go to save strangers whose lives depend upon him.

Because the closer he comes to the truth, the greater the danger becomes.

And if he fails, he may lose more than the lives he has sworn to save.

He may lose Chiara-the woman he came to Rome for, the woman he cannot replace, and the love he has spent years trying to hold on to.

Your Man in Rome is Book One of The Rome Intrigue Series, a romantic suspense novel of love, power, betrayal, and the secrets hidden beneath the Eternal City.
