About this ebook
Baby Girl believes she has finally found her safe harbour and her Paradise in the beautiful Caribbean Island of St. Thomas, far from her dark and dangerous past. And then she gets a phone call and a call for help from La Tige, the one man she cannot refuse.
La Tige is on his way to Puerto Rico, but not for a vacation. He has been hired to track a vicious "black widow" killer believed to be on a cruise ship about to dock in San Juan. Only Cleo’s unusual talents can bring her close to this cunning manipulator, and as the web of deceit tightens, everyone becomes a suspect, even the luscious and disturbing Raul. Cleo must untangle this deadly web, even as mysterious connections from her past threaten her fragile hopes for a new life and a happier future.

The Box Set Recap
In the Beginning
In the Beginning. Twelve-year-old Cleo calls a shack in Brennan, California home. She lives there with her mother who is, at best, a part-time mom. Her mother disappears, leaving Cleo to fend for herself. With no other choice she jumps on board a train to the closest city.
In the city, she meets a gang of other child vagabonds, forms close friendships with them, and an especially close bond with Einstein their leader. Together the foursome begin a thieving spree in the name of survival. It is during a heist that two of the vagabonds are caught, leaving Cleo and Einstein on the run. They continue their act across the country, finally stopping when they have enough savings to start a life together.
They choose a southern city, settle, and start their quiet life. Einstein takes a job as a dishwasher and Cleo begins a lifelong love for cooking. Their love for each other deepens by the day. They make friends with their next door neighbors, James and his daughter, LulaBell. Cleo and LulaBell become friends and through LulaBell’s studies, Cleo learns about Paris. As the heat from their past crimes resurfaces with copy-cat thefts, Cleo and Einstein decide to leave for Paris.
It is on their last night in the sleepy southern city that Cleo finds her life in turmoil. In a single moment, Einstein’s life is violently taken. James offers to get Cleo a passport. She accepts his offer. Her new name: Justine Holmes.
Moonlighting in Paris
Moonlighting in Paris. Cleo takes on a new identity: Justine Holmes. She travels to Paris and meets Didier, a rich hotel owner. In no time, the two become very close. She gains information on her mother’s disappearance and Einstein’s death. Instead of answers, she finds mystery and people who want her dead. Didier, unaware of her shaded past but well aware of her strange behavior, hires a body guard, Sam, to keep an eye on her.
As her and Didier’s relationship peaks, a new threat appears, a warning written in lipstick, while she’s working in Aruba. Justine doesn’t know whether the threat is tied to her past or something in her present. Aware of the threat, unaware of her past, Sam and Didier keep her close. Didier proposes to her. Excited, she accepts. During their engagement party her new pursuer takes the threat up a notch, attempting her harm.
Justine takes matters into her own hands, stalking her stalker. Didier’s lack of knowledge about her past, and her stubborn independence, lead to the accidental death of her stalker. The guilt hanging over her head and the mystery of her birth family lead her to make a heart wrenching decision. She leaves Didier the night before the wedding, sneaking out through her terrace window, and heads home to the U.S. to solve her own family mystery.
City by the Bay
In City by the Bay, Cleo takes the puzzle pieces involving her mysterious past and begins to link them together. She changes her identity to Shanna Nu and gains employment at the La Tige Detective Agency. She learns Perdy kidnapped her to hide her from the Briggses. A wealthy, powerful family. To give Perdy’s family closure, she visits them. Her mother, Leila, is still alive and welcomes Shanna into her home under the pretense that Shanna is a police officer. Shanna shares details of Perdy’s death and leaves her with a number to call so she can claim and properly bury her daughter.
Shanna and La Tige become closer than coworkers. She begins to think of him as the father she never had. Likewise, he becomes attached to her. He drops clues involving her past but under no circumstances will she discuss it with him. After solving a big case, he gives her the key to his unsolved cases drawer. She digs through the files finding new information pertaining to Perdy’s case along with an unrelated case involving a young woman, a baby, and a police officer. She takes the information and makes a decision to seek employment within the Briggs’s infrastructure and go to New York.
Meanwhile, she has become best friends with Kacy, owner of the Happy Trails bar, and her roommate. In Happy Trails late one night she meets Fetch, a gorgeous hunk of man. Her and Fetch form a relationship of sorts. She is unable to trust in their relationship and leaves him, without warning, for New York. She says goodbye to Kacy and La Tige. Before boarding the plane she finds a note from La Tige in the phone he gave her. It is the address to a rent controlled apartment.

Over the next several months her and Will become close and she learns he is her half-brother. La Tige gives her a lead, the number for a woman named Claudel Winters. Upon visiting her, she learns Claudel worked for her bio-mom, Celia Shariff. Cleo (Shanna) observes her bio-mom but is unable emotionally to make contact.
