About the book:
When armed
robbers strike her bank, hostage negotiator Skyler Brennan’s life is on the
line. Rescue comes from the last person she thought she could count on; the
ex-boyfriend who chose his job over their relationship. FBI agent Logan Hunter
knows how much is resting on this case. The promotion of his dreams; and the
safety of the woman he’s never been able to forget. But when an unexpected
twist in the case pulls Logan in two separate directions, he’ll have to make an
impossible choice. Will he manage to have it all by Christmas; a career and
love; or will he lose them both?
My review:
Incredible
suspense and heartwarming romance.
Susan Sleeman has
created a wonderful cast of characters for this book. The two main ones for
this novel are Skyler Brennan and Logan Hunter. They are so well developed and
have so many layers to them that are gradually revealed it is an ongoing
adventure to discover what makes each of them tick.
Skyler is part of
a team of First Responders and each of her teammates are introduced and enough
about them is revealed that I can’t wait to read their stories and learn more
about them. I’m hoping that each of them gets their own book.
The plot line for
the suspense is intricately woven and held my interest throughout the book.
Skyler and Logan both have emotional baggage from years past that hinders their
romance. It was fascinating to me to see how they worked through their own
problems as the story progressed.
