First Star I See Tonight

A Novel

By: Susan Elizabeth Phillips

Narrated by: Nicole Poole

A star quarterback and a feisty detective play for keeps in this sporty, sexy, sassy novel—a long-awaited new entry in the beloved, award-winning, New York Times bestselling author’s fan-favorite Chicago Stars football series.

Piper Dove is a woman with a dream—to become the best detective in the city of Chicago. First job? Trail former Chicago Stars quarterback, Cooper Graham. Problem? Graham’s spotted her, and he’s not happy.

Which is why a good detective needs to think on her feet. “The fact is . . . I’m your stalker. Not full-out barmy. Just . . . mildly unhinged.”

Piper soon finds herself working for Graham himself, although not as the bodyguard he refuses to admit he so desperately needs. Instead, he’s hired her to keep an eye on the employees at his exclusive new nightclub. But Coop’s life might be in danger, and Piper’s determined to protect him, whether he wants it or not. (Hint: Not!) If only she weren’t also dealing with a bevy of Middle Eastern princesses, a Pakistani servant girl yearning for freedom, a teenager who just wants of fit in, and an elderly neighbor demanding Piper find her very dead husband.

And then there’s Cooper Graham himself, a legendary sports hero who always gets what he wants—even if what he wants is a feisty detective hell bent on proving she’s as tough as he is.

From the bustling streets of Chicago to a windswept lighthouse on Lake Superior to the glistening waters of Biscayne Bay, two people who can’t stand to lose will test themselves and each other to discover what matters most.

Another Great Fun Book

I just love Susan Elizabeth Phillips. Her books are not deep, not particularly redeeming, but it is predictable fun. It was a fun, fast read.

SEP didn't let me down

Great to see hear from some old characters in this novel. So many parts made me laugh. Can't wait to listen again!

Great Again!

Awesome narrator! The story was really good! I hope even more "Chicago Stars" will be written. I've loved them all!

She's Back!!!

After the last book SEP wrote (I admit I couldn't get past those creepy puppet voices), I was a little skeptical that she could deliver another winner. But when I learned she had penned another Chicago Stars book, I wasted no time purchasing it. I was more than pleased to find that SEP is back, delivering the same witty banter we are accustomed to. First Star I See Tonight did not disappoint in the romance department either. The tried and true hunky-football-star & quirky-spunky-gutsy female characters never seems to get old. Although there was no shortage of interesting characters, the book did have some disconcerting moments (the Prince & the spanking incident, for instance). But there were plenty of moments that caused me to get choked up or laugh out loud. All in all, another winner from SEP!! Dare we hope for one more Chicago Stars book?????

Another great SEP novel!

I love this story. This is a series of books I go back to again and again. Love you and your stories SEP!
