The Kensington-Gerard Detective series follows the careers of NYPD Homicide Detectives Jessie Kensington and her partner Zachary Gerard as they fight crime in the city that never sleeps. Jessie is a good detective, but is damaged with commitment issues that have a fearsome grip on her present. Gerard’s been around law all his life as seen through the eyes of his father, a hotshot attorney with a reputation for racking up not guilty verdicts on his son’s cases. That only adds to their already tenuous relationship.
Greed, betrayal, sexual tension, threats on their lives, abductions, and missing witnesses makes for an ongoing parade of cases that seem unsolvable, but the fascination of seeing the evidence mount, regardless of setbacks, the pieces of the puzzle always seem to fit into a nice neat little package. In the end, persistence on Zach’s part opens Jessie’s mind to the fullness of a life her heritage has denied her. THE KENSINGTON-GERARD DETECTIVE SERIES IS CREATED BY K. T. ROBERTS

Making her way out from the fitting room, Jessie stepped up on the platform in front of the mirrors with one of the twenty wedding gowns she'd already tried on. Turning to look at every angle, she glanced over at Joanie. "What do you think?" She asked.


"Actually, I like the other gown better. This doesn't show off your beautiful figure."


"Yeah?" Jessie scrunched up her face, then turned again to get a glimpse at the back. "You really think so?"


"I do. Of course, it's your decision, but I just like the other one better."


"Okay, let me try it on again." Jessie walked back into the fitting room with the clerk who helped with the gown, and returned a few minutes later.


"Oh god, Jess, you look amazing in this gown," Joanie said. "Look at the detail on this bodice. Brocade over tulle."
