In His Custody by Fiona Archer: Drugs, teenagers and high school, what could possibly make for a better romance? Oh wait let’s add in an under cover cop and a woman scorned by a liar.

Mercy Jones didn’t suffer fools lightly. In fact when she got burned, she was done. She poured herself into her students in a way that would make anyone proud. She was determined to help and to do all she could for these kids.

Aidan Shaw he wanted to help as well. The problem was he was back in high school for a case, the helping was just extra. So when he ran into a woman who set his pulse skyrocketing, he didn’t really think about why he was undercover, he thought typical male thoughts.

Together Mercy and Aidan were helping these kids but when the light shown their true identities would their shared experiences be enough to hold them together?

Ms. Archer has given her readers the first story with the Shaw family. She has shown her amazing ability to amplify her characters from the page to her reader’s imaginations. She toys with domination and gives you enough to tempt you, but not overwhelm. This is not a novel to be read at work, or on a break, but is certainly one that will keep you in anticipation for brother number two. Take a minute or some and pick this one up, well worth it. ☺

After a messy breakup with a lying ex, English teacher Mercy Jones swore off men, especially the edgy ones. Safe, stable and comfy. Those are her catch words for a perfect partner. So why does the new substitute history teacher have to be dangerous, raw, and challenging—on every level? His uncompromising masculinity and questioning mind captivate Mercy, tempting her to risk her heart.

Detective Aidan Shaw is a cynical bastard, trusting nobody outside his family and fellow cops. But when working undercover to eradicate a high school drug network, Aidan meets an intelligent, feisty blonde with knock-out curves. Mercy’s warmth and generous spirit awaken a part of him buried deep for too long.

But how can Aidan remain undercover and not betray the woman he’s come to cherish? As he closes in on the criminals manipulating innocents for profit, the stakes grow ever higher—with deadly consequences.
