And when the police show up, he discovers the investigating officer is the woman he's supposed to look after.

Ratings and reviews

Solid scene building and intricate yet subtle descriptions set the scene for this suspenseful novel. Worth draws readers into her tale, allowing them to experience it as her characters battle through the turmoil they find themselves in. The plot was enjoyable and solidly written. I enjoy how this novel can be read as a standalone but that there is also an overarching plot to the series as a whole. It’s the best of both worlds. The characters in this novel definitely made the tale for me. The subtle role reversal was fantastic. It added extra depth to the tale. At the same time, the hero was definitely still strong and borderline alpha. Also, the fact that their relationship is powerful yet far from easy was so real that I couldn’t help but get drawn into it. It didn’t hurt that I genuinely enjoyed the main characters as well. This was my first novel by this author but her writing has sparked my interest and I’ll definitely be looking for more in the future. Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this work in exchange for an honest review.

Loved the suspense!
