Getting involved shouldn't be this dangerous…


Cate Sullivan is no damsel in distress. She's kept herself and her son safe for six long years. Built a good life in Indian Lake. But now that her drug-dealing ex-husband is moving his operation here, that life is about to explode.

Her instincts tell her to trust Detective Trent Davis. That he's more than just a handsome cop doing his duty. The former Green Beret has even formed a fast bond with her son. But there's something he's not telling her. Some darkness that keeps him from giving in to the feelings she knows are growing between them. Cate trusts Trent to keep her safe, but the real question is whether he'll trust himself with her heart.

REVIEW:
Oh boy, everyone knows, especially mothers...There is nothing we won't do to help or protect our kids. It doesn't matter who you are, if a mother sees or hears danger of any kind in regards to her kid(s), mama bear is coming out. This is a lovely story about a woman on the run with her child who finally finds a place where she thinks she can stop running and breathe. Just as she is enjoying her time of reprieve, her mean drug-dealing ex-husband is back in the picture. However, make no mistake. She is no damsel in distress in need of a man on a white horse. Thankfully, she has made friends with the really handsome detective as well so, when her ex show up, she doesn't need to handle business on her own.
This was a "damsel in distress" type book where the damsel is no damsel but does need help because she is in distress. But she is trying her very best to keep things orderly and clean.  This author was a new for me, but after reading this book, I really enjoyed her writing so I'll be reading more of her books! It was suspenseful, heroic, intense, and loving. What a great mix!
