How can I find a book that I can't remember the title of ?

Question

The story is about a woman named Victoria who returns to Colorado after her father is murdered. She is looking for her teen brother who is a suspect but ske knows he's innocent. She hires a private investigator to find him but there is a problem. Five years ago they had a careless fling that resulted in a child.

Answer 1

The book you are looking for is "Hot & Bothered" by Susan Andersen. Here is the plot description: "John "Rocket" Miglionni is a U.S. Marine turned private detective who gets a case looking for a young man named Jared who has run away after the murder of his father. As it turns out, Jared's sister is a beautiful woman John spent an unforgettable week with years ago. Victoria never forgot that week either--because now she has a six-year-old daughter who resulted from the impetuous, fiery affair. When John and Victoria reunite, it doesn't seem like they have enough in common to rekindle the flames they felt so long ago. But while working together to protect Jared, the two might just get hot and bothered once again."

Answer 2

Wild flings are supposed to be short-lived.

Socialite Victoria Hamilton had hers with a sexy Marine she knew only as Rocket.

But now her father's been murdered, her brother's on the lam, and the PI John Miglionni, whom her lawyer hired, turns out to be none other than the man she stole away from as the dawn broke over a Pensacola beach six years ago .

And he wants answers. About a lot of things.

But mostly about Victoria's daughter--the little girl with his dark eyes

Answer 3

Try googling key words like Victoria, Colorado, novel. It has worked for me before.

Answer 4

Sounds like a V.C. Andrews book.
