An orphan endures her grim childhood by cultivating a powerful belief in the myth, the fairy tale, the happily ever after. But now she’s all grown up…
Lindsey, a kinder teacher in survival mode after an unthinkable divorce is brilliant in the classroom where inquisitive and humorous children surround her. Unfortunately, unwanted sinister challenges invade her off- hours. Strange phone calls haunt her. A stalker, perhaps?
After learning the shocking truth about her ex-husband, she doesn’t want to be alone. Still, she isn’t ready to go looking for new love, but men find her anyway. She’s thankful for her 180-pound mastiff, Wendell. He thinks he can solve her problems. Sometimes, he does. He’s lovable, he’s loyal, and … he’s the teacher’s pet.
By chance, Lindsey meets a handsome grad student with a propensity to play detective and who is also involved in some tricky human research. His eyes are on Lindsey. But will his heart follow? Can she learn to trust again and allow him into her life amid the odd mysteries that keep springing up?
A teacher. A lover. A survivor. All Lindsey wants is her own happily ever after.

Reading the first chapter of Wanted: An Honest Man I couldn't help but be reminded of the scene in Sliding Doors when Gwyneth Paltrow comes home to find her man with another woman. It's a really powerful scene and Cricket Rohman captures the same sense of sickening hurt. I have to say the writing is superb in this highly enjoyable Mystery Romance.
--- Avid Reader
For the most part, this is a clean romantic book that includes mystery and adventure, although there was some sex and a few swear words. I loved how Lindsey handled the troubling issues with a few of her students as well as the delightful holiday show she put on with kids. This book was fun and seemed so real. I gave it 5 stars for entertaining me and making me want to read the next book.
--- Diana’s Book Reviews
I only give a book five stars when it completely captivates me. This caught me on so many levels, and I could not put it down. I enjoyed the details about teaching kindergartners, the lively characters, and loved Wendell the dog. I bought the next two books in the series.
