Dive headfirst into Hundred Dollar Bill, the electrifying kickoff to Sherry Morris's Immaculate Deception Series This 1940s romantic suspense thriller thrums with danger, betrayal, and a love that blazes through the night-set against an icy Washington storm in February 1945 that'll seize your senses and hold you captive. It's February 1945, and the capital's an ice-slicked maze of secrets. Chloe Lambert, a shapely redhead with a Southern lilt and a Secret Service badge, is a patriot thrust deep undercover in the counterfeiting division, shadowing Sergeant Bill Blandings-the slick enforcer secretly running the whole crooked game. She's in over her head, outmatched by Bill's charm and cunning, but her duty drives her to see the mission through. When Bill's gunned down in a blaze of bullets at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, Chloe's framed for his murder. Clutching a blood-soaked hundred-dollar bill, she bolts into the frozen night, bruised but unbroken. Assigned to capture and arrest her is Agent Mike Taurus, her former partner, a steady-eyed fed whose passion for her sparked during their first chaotic mission together. He knows she's innocent, his good girl caught in a deadly trap, and his love for her burns fierce and unspoken, urging him to save her even as he's ordered to bring her in. Meanwhile, the White House buzzes with intrigue. Eleanor Roosevelt, fancying herself a sleuth, uncovers a pearl-handled pistol in the desk of Vera Blandings, FDR's captivating secretary, hinting at a plot as biting as the winter wind. FDR, charmed by Vera's martini-soaked allure, skirts betrayal, while Eleanor digs deeper to protect her marriage and unravel the mystery. From tunnels built for the President's White House escape to presses churning out flawed bills, the chase surges toward a pulse-pounding showdown. Can Chloe outwit the frame and expose the conspiracy? Will Mike's ardent devotion defy his orders and become her lifeline? Hundred Dollar Bill is a wartime whirlwind of courage, deception, and simmering romance-think undercover grit, heart-racing twists, and a love that shines through the storm.
