I enjoyed this book overall. I hated Adam at first, but damn this book made me love him. Meredith is meh in my opinion, but she works for Adam, I guess.

Everything starts with a bomb, lucky for our main characters it didn't explode. But to whom was addressed? And why?
I love Karen Rose books, but this is not a standalone book, I don't recommend you to read this one if you haven't read the previous ones. This is a closing book, were the big case that had started a long ago will see their culprits in prison, finally!
It's always bittersweet to read the ending of a series, it had been years since I read their stories, cases... but in the other side it's nice to know they have a sweet ending, and a happy future!
In this case the main characters Meredith and Adam will have to face a mysterious character that will try to kill them, and with all the killing and investigating the truth, they will have to face their weird non-existing feelings that they had been hiding for a long time. They will have to share their own darkest secrets and fears if they want to have a real relation between them and if they want to survive. Because Meredith doesn't know who is trying to kill her, she doesn't know the victim or the possible killer, so what are they missing?
I have to say that in the beginning I didn't like Adam at all, all day drinking and being an arse to his friends and family, but after reading his personal torment I could understand his actions, I just hope that in the future when his darkness will try to abduct him, he will have the stronghold to ask for help.
This had been a non-stop read, full of mystery, action, a couple of very interesting twists and love. I am sure it will not leave anyone indifferent.
I can't wait for the next adventure created by Karen Rose.

Karen Rose's books are so good at sucking you into the story. I enjoy how she writes to keep you at the edge of your seat. However, in this book in particular, it was extremely repetitive with the facts being shared multiple times. I really felt this one was longer than what it needed to be.

Here’s another one of the Cincinnati Nobels by Karen Rose. I noticed something very different about this one; both our hero and heroine are damaged, each struggling throughout the story with their own weaknesses and traumas. What I really like about her books is that as you read them, as you meet all the different characters, you see who’s going to get together with whom. But even knowing that ahead of time, all 600+ pages of each novel are gripping, each romance is unique, and each storyline is different yet the people are all tied in together talented, you can’t pick your family but you can choose those friends who become your family...

I've read the other books in Karen Rose's Cincinnati series and really enjoyed them, but this one I didn't want to put down! The storyline is interesting and holds your attention. I started reading the series because I live near Cincinnati. I recommend the series, especially this book!!

Good read that I think could've been awesome if the author didn't try to pack all of her characters from her past books into this one.
Loved the hero, heroine, the bad guys were your usual insane dirt-bags, but I would get lost trying to remember all the supporting characters.
Maybe I just don't have a great memory anymore.

Ya know, it's not great literature. But if you're looking for total escapism of Romantic Suspense, this will do quite nicely. The men all have very manly names (Stone, Diesel). The women are beautiful. The chemistry is explosive. The bad guys get caught. It's all good.
