In St, Louis thirty years old good girl Olivia Jacobson wants to release the inner bad girl as she is tired of having no fun especially with the dating scene. At the rate she is going with the opposite sex, she will be the last virgin. Of course once she makes up her mind to have blinding night of sex, she now needs to select a hunk.

Police Detective Garrett Krause agreed to the calendar spread to raise money for charity; he may have said no in spite of the good cause if he knew what being Mr. August meant as women have invaded his space wanting illicit sex with him. He thinks the gender is missing a loose screw and that is not him.

Working on the calendar Olivia decides Mr. August is the right man to heat her loins. When she turns from demure nice girl into a siren, he wants to say no, but finds he cannot resist her lure. However, if she scores, she ponders what next as she is deeply attracted to the cop, a feeling she never had before.

CAPTURING THE COP is a fun contemporary Jacobson romance starring two likable protagonists. The story line focuses on Olivia trying to throw off the "shackles" of her family so that she can enjoy life just a bit. Garrett is attracted to the good girl as much as the bad girl. Readers will enjoy Michele Dunaway's latest Jacobson romantic caper (see EMERGENCY ENGAGEMENT) due to the feisty heroine.
