This was an entertaining little book, that kept up a nice pace and contained lots of action. I liked the Paranormal edge added by Brady's special visions. I liked that Isabella was such a strong touch chick, in a profession like law enforcement where she is surrounded by domineering men; she holds her own. Her independence tended to be a bit overdone at times and her determination to remain alone because of her views on love got old after a few pages. However, Brady complimented her nicely and balanced her out. You could see that he was the one man that could make her reconsider her stance on love and marriage.Their relationship begins as something purely sexual, at least that's how they tried to keep it. Even when reading about their first encounter, there is a chemistry and a tenderness that exists between the two that makes you want to see them end up together. My only one complaint is that the love scenes between them never once displayed any of the tenderness or love that was evident in their relationship. I mean, I get that their sexual appetites were high, but each scene was wild and hot, and just once, maybe, I'd have liked to have seen some of the care and tenderness displayed physically so that they didn't come across as two horny people just jumping on each other. This was a small complaint for me though, because honestly the sex scenes are pretty hot...I mean, spray myself off with a water bottle afterward hot!The action was engaging and the characters were likeable. I look forward to reading book 2 and seeing how the life of Isabella's cousin Alicia, unfolds. Hopefully we'll catch a glimpse of Brady and Isabella in their happily ever after as well??
