Excellent start to a new series!
This the perfect book to settle into for a long flight. I was sucked in right away and loved every minute of this one. It’s exactly what I love about a Tijan book – lots of layers and depth with my characters, chances to really see them interact with each other and a complex story.
When the story opens Jess is at a hockey game with her best friend and stumbles upon Trace. The chemistry and attraction between them is strong right away, and Trace seems intent on Jess until he learns she is a parole officer. Anything to do with the police is something he avoids since he is heavily involved in the “family business”.
Both Trace and Jess have complicated and dark backgrounds that have shaped them into who they are when they meet. Jess very much lives her work and takes her job very seriously. Trace knows getting involved with Jess is not a good idea.
I loved how strong of a character Jess was. She was adept at taking care of herself, but at the same time I also loved how protective and caring Trace was of her as the story moved along. The mystery and intrigue surrounding them was also incredibly well done – it’s one of the few times I haven’t figured things out early on. I thought it was weaved well into everything else.
I had completely missed that this was part of a series – and I’m not entirely sure if the next books will be a different couple, or more with this same, but either way I can’t wait!
Tijan is a New York Times Bestselling author that writes suspenseful and unpredictable novels. Her characters are strong, intense, and gut-wrenchingly real with a little bit of sass on the side. Tijan began writing later in life and once she started, she was hooked. She’s written multi-bestsellers including the Carter Reed Series, the Fallen Crest Series, and the Broken and Screwed Series among others. She is currently writing a new YA series along with so many more from north Minnesota where she lives with a man she couldn’t be without and an English Cocker she adores.
