New York's Finest #2

Forever
IN HOT PURSUIT
Being
a cop might be in Anthony Moretti's blood, but protecting and serving the city
of New York has always been more than just the family business. If that means
his love life stays locked up, well then that's just another sacrifice made in
the line of duty. That is, until he sets eyes on the gorgeous new waitress at
The Darby Diner and suddenly Anthony's morning coffee is leaving him a whole
lot more hot and bothered than usual.
Though
waitressing at The Darby isn't exactly Maggie Walker's dream job, it pays the
bills and gives her time to work on her novel. Now if only she could stop
fantasizing about gorgeous Anthony Moretti every time he sits down at her
table, she'd really be in great shape. But when he needs her help identifying a
criminal threatening The Darby—and Maggie recognizes her ex-husband—she fears
her fresh start might be a pipe dream. Faster than a New York minute, Maggie and
Anthony find themselves in one perilous pursuit that only gets hotter with each
and every rule-breaking kiss.
“I just can’t believe Mags
called you Officer,” Vincent said
in sham reverent tone. “I don’t know how she missed the nine -hundred and forty-
two reminders that you’re a Captain now.”
“Well she damn well should
remember,” he muttered. “Is anyone else remembering that she spilled iced -tea
all over me at my coronation party?”
“She spilled it on your shoes,”
Elena said. “Which were black.”
“Still,” Anth said, glancing
around the room this time to make sure she wasn’t with in earshot. “I don’t
know why we have to act like she’s a new member of the family when she can’t
seem to go a single Sunday without spilling somebody’s breakfast on me. It
can’t be an accident every time.”
“Maybe she wants to get your
attention. Your humble, pleasant charming personality is so charming,” Ava said quietly into her
coffee mug.
Anth looked at Luc’s
girlfriend. “Et tu, Brute?”
Ava winked.
And then his dad leaned back in
the booth, folded his arms, and glared at his oldest son. “So tell me again
what you’re doing to close in on this Smiley character.”
“Oh my God, he’s like a dog
with a bone!” Elena said, throwing her arms up in exasperation, before turning
her attention back to her cell phone. “Also, is Nonna texting anyone else? I’ve
been getting mucous every five minutes.”
“Yes,” everyone replied at
once.
“She just sent me a Wikipedia
link on phlegm,” Vincent grumbled.
To say that his grandmother had
been upset to miss brunch because of a lingering head cold was an
understatement. She’d been punishing them all with updates on her illness.
Anthony glanced at his watch,
and mentally counted the minutes until he could relax with a beer and watch the
Yankees game.
Of the three sacred things in
his life, the New York Yankees had always been a very distant third to family and the
Department.
Now he was seriously rethinking
his priorities.
