What is this book about?
Prosecutor Sophie Dawson’s first job in the White Collar division of the Fulton County D.A.’s office is to build a case against a local bank employee who may be cheating clients. But when circumstances beyond her control leave her as the only witness to a double homicide involving a vengeful gang, her world is turned upside down.
Former Atlanta police officer turned private security guard Cooper Knight is hired to ensure that Sophie is kept safe. But as threats escalate, they don’t know who they can trust.
Sophie is determined not to back down, but her bank case gets more complicated by the day, and the gang will stop at nothing to keep her from testifying. Sophie wants to take a stand for what’s right–but can Cooper, who is determined not to be distracted by their growing attraction, keep her safe so that she can finish her pursuit for justice?
My review:
The suspense and romance were well balanced. I had to keep turning the pages to see who was after Sophie. There were so many different suspects which made it fun to figure out who the true villain was.
Sophie’s character was down to earth, particularly for someone who was raised with many financial advantages. I really enjoyed her personality and the sparks that flew between her and Cooper.
I like that this author manages to put the reader into the legal profession without talking over their heads. I learned a lot about the different lawyers and the logistics of navigating the legal system.
What I enjoyed most about this book:
Fast paced suspense
What I didn’t like about this book:
One of the secondary attorney sub-plots
Would I recommend this book to others? Yes. Page turning suspense, loads of suspects, interesting characters, and sweet romance. This is the second book in the series. It can be read as a standalone.
