I didn't think this was unbelievable, but it definitely kept my attention and the did download some of the other books in the series. 

It started slow, but sped up halfway through. I thought there was too much down time after all the action. 


Romantic thriller
Childhood sweethearts 
Slow burn
Tortured hero
Small town
Multi timeline
Forced proximity 
Dual POV 
Second chance 
Cute nickname 
Past trauma
Gun violence 
Spicy
Found family 

Hard to believe one book has so many tropes!

I don’t usually like second chance romances but this one was so good. I loved the way that Holt pursued Wren and cared about her. Catherine Cowles always has the best mix of suspense and romance in her books.
