Angela DeLuca loves her job and loves feeling as if she's made a difference. So when a baby is abandoned on her door step during one of the coldest nights of the year she takes steps to make sure this baby is cared for and doesn't follow the proper protocol. Protocol that she, as a paramedic, is more than aware of. This action introduces us to a no nonsense woman who always does the right thing, even if it's wrong.With the discovery of the baby Angela is pulled into the seedy underworld of human trafficking as Angela tries to determine who the baby's mother is after a suspicious event one evening shortly after finding him (can't reveal what it is, it's a spoiler ;) )Besides Angela, Troy Devers is investigating the possible human trafficking ring running in the city. As an agent for ICE, following protocol is paramount. He doesn't think there are victims, only people willingly trying to skirt the law. Angela and Troy disagree on how the people being brought in illegally should be dealt with but they agree that the physical attraction to each other is undeniable.I really enjoyed the weaving of the romantic plot line with the suspenseful thriller side. It made for a tension filled read. The clues as to who was behind this activity were dribbled but it was never clear until the end which made for a page turning experience.I'll definitely read more from this author.3.5 out of 5 stars.I received a copy of this novel for an honest review
