    About this ebook

    Recent widow Tawny Lindholm is fifty, broke, and facing prison time when brilliant, arrogant, abrasive attorney Tillman Rosenbaum rescues her. (Learn the whole story in Instrument of the Devil, Book 1 in Tawny Lindholm Thrillers with Passion.)

    Then Tillman offers her a job. 

    Why? 

    Tawny knows nothing about the law, is dyslexic, and can't stand the man. But she feels indebted and desperately needs work. 

    She drives 450 miles from her home in Kalispell, Montana to Tillman's law office in Billings and doesn't know what to expect when she arrives. But a chance opportunity falls into her lap that could lead to success...or humiliation.

      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go
