Love in 60 Seconds Books in Order

Love in 60 Seconds is a shared continuity series with a lighter, glitzier frame than many of Loreth Anne White's darker suspense books, but it still runs on secrecy, attraction, and danger.

The broader line uses time-themed titles and quick-hit romantic suspense setups, often with wealthy characters, glamorous backdrops, and high-pressure encounters that kick off almost immediately. White's contribution is A Game of Deception, also published as Her 24-Hour Protector, and it fits that framework neatly.

The setup is pure continuity fun. Socialite Jenna Rothchild spots FBI special agent Lex Duncan at a charity bachelor auction and sees an opportunity, not just for a date, but for answers about her sister's homicide and a priceless diamond tied to it. Of course, Lex has motives and secrets of his own, and the closer Jenna gets to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes. That combination of sparkle and threat is exactly what this kind of series is meant to deliver.

It moves fast.

Because this is a multi-author world, the emphasis is less on one long continuing arc and more on the pleasure of a self-contained romantic suspense with a strong hook. White brings her usual skill with attraction under pressure, but she plays in a brighter sandbox here. Think less isolated wilderness and more money, family scandal, charm, and danger dressed up for a night out.

That said, there is still a real White edge beneath the polish. Jenna is not just flirting for fun. She is chasing answers. Lex is not just a handsome federal agent. He is a man whose professional role makes intimacy complicated from the start. So even though the packaging is brisk and glamorous, the emotional push and pull is real.

This page is best treated as a guide to White's single entry in the larger series. If you like continuity romance with Las Vegas energy, countdown-style titles, and a touch of crime threaded through the attraction, this is what you should expect. And if you are a White reader curious about one of her breezier category-romance turns, A Game of Deception gives you that version of her without losing the suspense beat that runs through almost everything she writes.
