Sometimes the last thing you expect is exactly what you need, the final missing piece. And sometimes it comes in the form of a towering, broody sheriff, determined to get in your way at every step.
Ridley Sawyer knows what it’s like to miss someone, to feel like a piece of her vanished—because it happened to her the night her twin sister disappeared.
Now, Ridley channels that loss into hope, traveling the country covering cold cases for her true crime podcast. She might not have found justice for her sister but that doesn’t stop her from finding it for others.
Until Sheriff Colter Brooks gets in her way.
Colt knows what it’s like to have reporters descend on his town in the wake of a tragedy, and he’s not about to let a fiery podcaster stir up trouble. It doesn’t matter that her haunting blue eyes tell him there’s more to Ridley’s story or that he can’t stop imagining what it would be like to touch her.
But when Ridley’s cold case turns hot and she’s thrust into the crosshairs, Colt has no choice but to step in. Suddenly, Ridley’s living at his house, drinking his whiskey, and stealing his dog’s affections. But she’s also proving that she’s so much more than his first impression.
And as they get closer to the truth, the game they’ve been playing might just turn deadly…'
I can't lie, I was engaged with this one from the minute I started reading it. I usually enjoy this author's titles, so I wasn't surprised to feel this way, but it's always nice when the expectation meets the reality.
The characters were interesting, the story was engaging and I was definitely interested in seeing the resolution of the mystery...and I admit I did not see that resolution coming. I definitely knew who I thought it was going to be...and it was not.
Ridley and Colt were an interesting couple, and I definitely believed their connection and I loved their initial meeting, and the fact that their spark was obvious even though the initial meeting was far from romantic.
I enjoyed and recommend this title.
