Desperate Dreams series is a spin off of the My Beautiful series following the four major characters and their backstories.

In book one, Detective Lee Tracy watched Mariana Richland transform into an elite member of the San Melida Police Department as Police Advocate Officer ten years ago. Since then, Mariana has assisted the city and the police force by sifting through cases related to hers by adding kidnapping and missing persons. Her unique situation put her in the headlines and into the hearts of the people. The two have worked closely during this period and have become best friends.

While everyone has their backs turned to Mariana or in the background, Lee has stepped up to be her undercover protector. The two are like brother and sister, which makes them comical and the perfect partners.

Lee and Mariana will soon discover theyve been designated to handle matters around Captain Navarro and his lengthy absence. Curiosity, yet an unsettled feeling eases into him over the two mysterious envelopes, flipping him into detective mode. Does the abrupt appearance of strange text messages contain answers to Carls disappearance?

Dumping out the contents of the envelopes, Lee discovers he is suddenly married, and his best friend is divorced. Lee and Mariana uncover pivotal clues, but will their search lead to Captain Navarro and or will Mariana be forced to let go of Carl forever, unearthing a secret to tear them apart?
