A Capitol Affair

Bet Books October, 2005
ISBN: 1583146806

Chicago PR writer Skye Crawford has just lost her job and is looking for her next adventure when her ex-fiance delivers an offer she can't refuse; a top slot on his congressional campaign. But before Skye sets foot on Capitol Hill, the race is over. Her candidate is found dead from an apparent suicide. Skye senses foul play, and her instincts lead her to suspect Republican rival Darren Birch. The fact that the tall, politically conservative bachelor has taken an interest in her makes getting close to him that much easier. Although Skye comes to believe he's not involved, she doesn't want to walk away. Darren may not be the murderer, but he seems to know more than he's willing to admit.

Ending an engagement to a social climber has her questioning all the society traditions she held dear. Paul Leyden is a police officer in Crawford, Cromwell's working class neighbor. His wife left him for a life in Cromwell and he has a chip on his shoulder for anyone from that town. When research for her new novel requires Sepia ride along with Paul, the sparks fly immediately in the all the wrong directions. Despite their differences, they are brought together when Sepia becomes the only witness to a murder by a killer targeting the most prominent black leaders in Cromwell. The investigation brings out dirty secrets of the bluest black bloods and leads Sepia and Paul into each other's arms.

3+ Stars, Romance In Color (Debra Ross): A Class Apart is a good read resulting in the coming together of two very likeable characters. Angela Winters is quite adept at combining romance and suspense. A Class Apart is yet another testament to that fact.

4 Stars, RAWSISTAZ Book Club: "Angela Winters has given readers a wonderful who-dun-it, surrounded by issue which emphasize the pitfalls of stereotyping and show that love is not classified. Because of the subtle way she presents her lessons in humanity, this is more than just a quick, entertaining read."
