From Cape Town with Love: A Tennyson Hardwick Novel

The third in the "bold, sexy, and engaging" (Zane, New York Times bestselling author) Tennyson Hardwick series takes the former gigolo and current private eye to South Africa as he searches for love and ends up embroiled in an international mystery.

Actor-turned-detective Tennyson Hardwick's past as a sex worker has cost him his new girlfriend. Determined to win her back, he follows her to Cape Town, South Africa, accepting a job as a bodyguard by superstar Sofia Maitlin when she visits an orphanage to adopt an African child.

Months later, Maitlin offers Tennyson one of Hollywood's hottest tickets--a job as a bodyguard at adopted daughter Nandi's A-list celebrity birthday party. But the party is over before it begins. When Nandi's birthday goes dreadfully wrong, it's up to a guilt-ridden Tennyson to save a child's life and reunite a Hollywood family.

But how? He can't go to the police, the FBI has threatened to arrest him, and Big Brother is monitoring his telephone calls.

To find Nandi, Tennyson will have to rely on tips from his father--a retired LAPD captain--and a mysterious woman from his past who has already proven she can't be trusted. When his search for the missing child crosses paths with a criminal gang with ties to South Africa, Tennyson knows that finding Nandi might cost him his freedom--or his life.
