Review: Action, suspense, danger and romance...

For a short story, I thought the author did a good job of putting so much into it.  The story starts out with the heroine attempting to leave her abusive husband and her near death beating he gives her for trying to leave him.  Then it skips forward six months.  At this point the story picks up on Alex telling Mia of her now ex-husband's escape from prison.  We are given somewhat of a summation of what happened during those six months it skipped (the arrest, the trial, her relocation, etc.)  The story keeps a steady action filled pace from this point forward where the ex comes after Mia and Alex is determined to protect her.  There are a few editing blunders that could be corrected (like her pulling her gun out of her bra twice in the same scene) but it did not take away from the story.  One reviewer remarked how they decided "to get married after like a day" and they had only known each other professionally a couple of years prior.  Not true.  The whole story takes place in a six month span.  The hero was the officer involved in the case and it tells how he and Mia had close contact through out the trial.
