Love can hook you before you know it…
Previously published by Samhain Publishing.
Abigail has bigger problems than adjusting to her role as owner of a yarn store she inherited from her aunt. Petty crime is hurting her business, plus that of all the other shops in the area.
When she spots a man stealing an orange from a neighboring store, she doesn’t hesitate to give chase—only to discover the man she’s just tackled to the ground is a cop.
Detective Brody Donovan is about to slap some cuffs on the woman decked out in a yarn costume, when his better sense prevails. Her apartment is the perfect place to set up a stakeout to catch the criminal who wounded his partner. Specifically, her bedroom.
The heat between them unexpectedly fries his concentration, though he can’t figure out why. She’s into ’50s nostalgia. He’s all about his job. She yearns for a man who will court her. He goes through women like tissues.
But when the criminal finally surfaces, Brody realizes too late that he’s dangerously close to losing the one woman he never thought he wanted.
Warning: Contains a commitment-phobic cop, stolen oranges and flirty aprons, and some heartfelt Shim Sham shimmying.

Courting the Cop Fun
A fun read by Aussie author Coleen Kwan! 1950's enthusiast Abigail has her life spiced up with a little danger in the name of Detective Brody Donovan.
Courting the cop review
I like it because it's very cheesy. The two meet in an awkward encounter, through the fault in the guy, and he struggles to take responsibility for it. It always cringeworthy but adorable when he tries to make up for it. His solution of course is epic.
I like how even though there is a romance, it's only a subplot to the real problem.
Well written, really emotional roller coaster, good job.
4 stars today because it's a good book but not really original plot.
