Ratings and reviews

Surprise! Not the same cliché. When you read enough intrigue, suspense sometimes the premises are the same and run together. I enjoyed this plot. There is definitely intrigue, misplaced obligation and the sad tale of what does happen at the border with the cartel. Dog lovers unite! I am in love with Denali :) Clay was a tad more open to shades of gray then I expected which made one think. April seemed a little ditzy a time or two but in reality had the smarts. I did want to shake her for her sense of obligation! Evasive action had a twist or two that really upped my enjoyment of this book and I am excited to see where Carol Ericson takes this series. I thank the author for the arc. I freely volunteer my thoughts and opinions. I recommend this book to anyone who loves intrigue, romance, suspense and a mystery.

This was a fast-paced beginning to a new series! Just the way I like it! The author immediately grabs you and takes you into the world of the border agents between Arizona and Mexico. It's not pretty. I've lived in that very area so I know the challenges that come there but I don't really know the things the agents have to deal with on a day to day basis. This book deals with the drug trade but there are many other things the agents deal with. I am grateful for all they do because it's very hard. In this book, April and Clay have a history but they haven't seen each other for 2 years when they were supposed to get married but April walked away. She never Clay why and he was left wondering. Well, now, April was getting married again but found out on her wedding day that the guy was in the drug trade himself so she escapes and runs to Clay! April's brother is a piece of work! He is so dependent on April and she just can't quit helping him, even though Clay tells her to cut him loose! Anyway, there is a ton of action and lots of questions as to who is who and what is what! I recommend it!
