After a sudden tragedy blew her world apart, Peyton Kerr fled her big-city career and started over in Stoney Creek, Maine. So far, she’s loving small-town life–no one knows about her past, and her easy flirtation with Boone Knight gives her a reason to smile. But then someone is murdered in Peyton’s store, and her quiet, anonymous existence is instantly destroyed. To make matters worse, Boone–a police detective–is assigned to the case, and Peyton knows she can’t keep him at arm’s length any longer. She’s resisted the simmering heat between them–but now this gorgeous man is promising to keep her safe–and satisfied…
Boone Knight doesn’t want the complications of a relationship. But when he volunteers to protect his town’s newest–and sexiest–resident, he finally admits he’d like to explore their sizzling attraction. And after one incredible night, everything changes for Boone. Peyton is sweeter–and braver–than anyone he’s ever met, and with her in his arms, everything makes sense. He just needs to convince her to trust him enough to reveal her secrets, or risk losing her to a merciless killer who seems to grow bolder with each passing day.
PAT'S REVIEW
This is a romance with a suspense book. The lead female character has had her life turned upside down in the big city Seattle and getting away to a small town in Maine is her hope of a simple life but also away from the memories of where her husband was killed. Peyton the female character has opened a lingerie shop. Boone is the main male character and detective and rides a motorcycle. He is not looking for a relationship because his wife betrayed him and so he moved back to his home town. The two meet because her store is vandalized and he starts asking questions but something about her answers seems off so he begins to look a little deeper. Slowly the two of them are put together because someone is out to harm her and he volunteers to watch her. The rest of the story you will have to read and find out what happens. I did like the characters and the times that they are together and their friends. There are times when the story drags a little so there is that, but overall a good story. I received this book from Netgalley.com I gave it 4 stars. Follow us at www.1rad-readerreviews.com |
