The
Jake Bernstein FBI series
by Donna Del Oro
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: romantic suspense
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
A
riveting blend of romantic thriller, mystery and WWII espionage that spans
sixty years of lies. England’s secret service agency MI5 recruits
Jewish-American FBI analyst Jake Bernstein to go undercover and investigate an
elderly, naturalized American grandmother, suspected of being a notorious Nazi
spy wanted for war crimes during WWII. Jake runs into a series of
complications: This spy knows a secret that could endanger the British royal
family; Jake’s attraction to the old woman’s beautiful granddaughter; a
ruthless and violent Irish neo-Nazi group is tracking him; and a clever, cagey
old lady stands in the way of justice. His priority shifts from finding the
evidence to staying alive!

EXCERPT
Breakfast in the hotel dining room was to be served at 7
a.m.. Next stop: Cardiff, the capital of Wales, then their ferry ride to
Ireland. He’d finally looked over the itinerary. The motor coach would be
leaving that afternoon, after a tour and lunch in Bath. A quick perusal of the
day’s agenda showed him they had the afternoon free to wander around Bath and
do some shopping. Maybe he could invite Meg and her grandmother to spend some
time with him.
Still drowsy with sleep, he looked over at the pillow next
to his. Visualizing Meg lying there, her lush hair with all its variegated
blonde hues fanned out, stirred him. The erection he’d awakened with grew
harder; not surprising, he thought, considering his celibacy of late. Strictly
his choice, despite the offers tossed his way.
The opportunities had been there and he’d ignored them,
stubborn man that he was. Even late last
night, when the two New Jersey sisters had called and invited him to a private
party in Hank’s room. He’d declined tactfully.
At thirty-two years old, he found himself holding out for
more.
Stupid fool, he scolded himself. Or as the Brits would say,
sodding wanker! Or something to that
effect. He should learn to take it when it was offered to him on a platter,
free of charge. All he had to do was be
nice to a girl for a few hours, promise to call her, and then…
Ah, but as Grandpa Nate would say, “nussing is free in dis
vorld”.
Dreams of Meg had plagued him—rather entertained him—all
night. Even now, recalling how her small, plump breasts bounced up and down
while she ran alongside him, how her long ponytail swung back and forth, filled
him with unbridled lust. The one time they’d stopped at the Roman ruins, they’d
let their arms brush together. Neither had pulled away. Just that light touch
had flooded his insides with longing. She appeared to feel the same. She’d flushed to the roots of her hair and
after that, had touched him in some small way every chance she got. Each touch
was electric, sizzling!
What he liked about her was her total lack of coyness or
flirtatiousness. Meg was straightforward, without guile; she wasn’t playing
games. He could read the honesty in her face when she told him about her
breakup with the ex-fiancé and her distrust of men and their empty promises and
vows. All lies, she’d mused with just a hint of bitterness. She’d finally come
to accept the reality of men.
Or some men, she’d amended, adding quickly that she’d
apologize if she was offending him. No, he’d said; I agree with you. Most men
lie through their teeth. It’s a guy thing.
That admission had elicited a small, rueful laugh from both
of them. And she’d let her arm brush his again, as if to reassure him. He was
different, she was saying.
No, I’m not, he’d wanted to say. I’m a liar, an impostor.
And you’re going to hate me when this is all over.
