Summary:

She escaped a psychopath…only to find a dangerous passion!

Fleeing Samuel Grayson’s cult was a risky move for Olivia Conner. So risky that the single mom left one of her children behind. What she’d seen in Cold Plains had destroyed all she believed in one heart-stopping instant. And it could get her killed.

Olivia’s only option was a safe house she found with the help of ruggedly sexy mercenary Micah Grayson.
But once she learned he was Samuel’s twin, she dared not trust him…or the way her body reacted to his.
Now the two—who’d both sworn off relationships—must embark on a deadly mission: rescue Olivia’s
son, take down Samuel and safeguard their hearts against love!

My Thoughts:

This was an interesting book, with a nice twist at the end. One I did not really see coming, which I must admit is unusual. If you are looking for a nice suspense mystery book that is not one where you have to really be thinking, but can just read and tag along for the ride then this book is for you. The romance is pretty light, though Olivia and Micah do fall for each other in some ways it seems to only be because they are in the right place at the right time and stress and circumstances throw them together.  While that’s not a bad thing per say but does it really have the Happily ever after effect that most people expect out of romance books. I’m not sure. All in all I did enjoy this book, the concept drew me in and the characters kept me turning the page.

Overall Rating: 3 / 5 Stars
