I believe I liked this book even better than Kari's first book Wild Card Undercover. The books are part of a series, but they read as stand alone. In this one, Jack wants to be with Callie, but he's on the run from a vengeful mob boss who's put a hit on him. Not a spoiler (this is revealed right away) - Callie's raising Jack's son, but the mob boss believes the boy to be his grandchild which gives him a reason to keep Callie close, which is exactly why Jack has to stay away. They do find time to spend together though, and I'd risk spoiling if I shared anything more. This is another fast-paced thrill with a lot of romance. It's a fast fun read.

Book #2 of Kari's Lemor's series isn't your average romance. Boy meets girl. Boy and girl fall in love and live happily ever after. In this book, we don't meet Callie and Jack until it's too late. They were in love, but Jack's cover has been blown, he's been critically injured, and he's forced to abandon the woman he loves - and their unborn son - or die. This cruel separation is the driving force at the center of this novel, and every moment you root for the characters to find a way for it to finally end.
It's a sweet romance with a side of bitter. (Which I love.) The family moments Callie and Jack managed to steal for themselves are heartwarming, and little Jonathan is too precious for words. Meanwhile, the plot twists and turns, danger always lurks nearby, and you never know who to trust. The drama gradually builds steam (of all kinds. Oh my. *fans self*) and before you know it, you're racing toward a riveting and scary as hell final confrontation with the mobster, Victor Cabrini. All in all, I'd say it's quite a ride.
For sure, worth the read.

Not technically a sequel to Lemor's first Love on the Line series, this story does have interconnecting characters. Callie and Jack's love story is so incredibly sweet. Jack is a tough former FBI agent on the run who will stop at nothing to clear his name and reunite his family. Fast paced, fun side characters, and a heroine who you are rooting for. Do put this on your to be read list for its July release.
