Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 09 30, 2013
Abi is a different kind of heroine as compared to the first two books. She has been on the run for the past five years from a drug lord who ruled over her father and thus over her. But when she was of age the drug lord wanted her for himself so her father groomed her to escape, run for her life & watch every shadow & use every disguise & false id to hide. Ben is so similar to Abi since his job working for Nick entails trailing criminals. Abi doesn't realize that the drug lord has spotted Abi in every different location under every disguise but she manages to slip away. Someone who looks like Abi has been on a crime spree in all of these areas in hopes that the police will track down Abi for the drug lord. Ben doesn't take much convincing though before he realizes Abi is no criminal & boy, their sexual chemistry blows off the charts. He has been hiding under her window for three weeks & Abi has been experiencing erotic dreams as his cologne blows through her bedroom - hot! But not quite as hot as their bedroom action - it happens fast & often & these two fall for each other. Ben isn't the kind of romantic leading man we're used to but he is very possessive & claims Abi as his woman & offers her protection through Nick's services. He promises to keep her safe but Abi is pretty good at watching her own back - these two make an excellent team as they hunt down the drug lord & try to bring down his entire operation. Both Abi & Ben have been alone in the world & cling desperately to each other as kindred spirits - so good!
