In the Shadow of Greed was one of those rare books that swept me up from the get-go. Weeks wove an absolutely fantastic tale of greed, intrigue and really steamy love. Dr. Sarah is so awkward and inside of her own head that you cannot help but love her. Jason is the perfect antidote to her buttoned up nature, with his oh-so-hot cop mentality. Of course, the rest of McNeils and the strong bond Jason has with his family make you love him just that much more.I'm struggling to write this review, not because the book was difficult to review but because I ABSOLUTELY adored it and I just want to gush, but I do not want to give too much away. I'm having a total fan-girl moment over here.Hannah's character just added this element of complete emotional connection to the book. I cried over some of her scenes. Perhaps that is what makes In the Shadow of Greed so successful. Weeks has an amazing ability to pull emotional responses from her readers. I laughed, I cried, I gasped in suspense.I am a huge fan of cop dramas, but even on my favorite shows, I can usually figure out the plot. In the Shadow of Greed kept me guessing and the steamy romance between Jason and Sarah kept me distracted in the most delicioius way. This book is a MUST READ for anyone who loves a good romance or a good mystery. It's beautifully written.Disclaimer: I was gifted a copy of this ebook in exchange for an honest review.
