Hot romance, gripping suspense and one determined independent woman make up the latest book from VR Marks.Eva Battaglia was an analyst with the Special Forces team that included her current boss Ross and best friend Bart. On their last mission things didn't go according to plan and the hostage they were trying to save died. Now years later it seems the man responsible for the kidnapping and botched mission is after Eva for something he thinks she knows. With Eva still recovering from a gunshot wound Ross asked to have Deputy Carson Morris assigned as her body guard but without her knowledge. Things go fine until Bart shows up and get shot taking a bullet meant for her.Eva is now made aware of what is going on and begrudgingly agrees to go into hiding with Carson and try and figure out what it is Bakr Morcos really wants from her.I love reading strong female characters and Eva can defiantly take care of herself but is still a woman at heart that suffers from nightmares from the botched mission and with her growing attraction to Deputy Carson who isn't her typical type of man. Carson isn't the normal rough and tough Alpha male we read a lot in books. He good at his job but he keeps his cool and doesn't lose his composure and loves his momma and his sisters :). He and Eva together balance each other out and made a great pair.This was a fast paced book that had equal parts of suspense and romance. I have come to love all of Mr Marks books and look forward to his next.
