Mysterious, unpredictable and most definitely scorching hot.

While investigating a criminal network, Detective Crosby Albertson keeps crossing paths with members of the highly trained, suspiciously well-informed McKenzie family. They’re always one step ahead of him—especially their alarmingly attractive intel specialist, Madison. And he needs to find out why.

Madison McKenzie is the tech and surveillance whiz of her family’s operation. A recent case introduced her to Detective Albertson. She finds herself irresistibly drawn to the sexy and mysterious cop. There’s just one problem. He’s a detective and her family’s work is secret. When Crosby starts digging for information about the McKenzies, Madison’s got to get him off the scent…while keeping him at a safe distance.

My Review..

I’ve been dying to read Madison’s story since I met her in book one. She is so spunky and strong willed the perfect female McKenzie woman. I loved every interaction she had in each book. Madison seems to be the brains of every operation. In every Lori Foster book she never plays the women off to be the weaker sex they are always equals and the men do not treat them any other way. Event though they may want to cuddle them and protect them, they realize the women are fully capable of handling situations on their own. I really enjoyed her story ARC in this book with Crosby and both of their situations.

Crosby was so confusing in the previous book, I figured he would be Madison’s love interest but I wasn’t even sure I liked him. My whole demeaner changed a quarter of a way into this book when all the story started to unfold. Crosby’s whole story is amazing, I almost enjoyed him more than Madison. He’s got such a gentle soul which you wouldn’t of thought previously, and I like that he thinks differently than the McKenzie’s which I noticed each of the new spouses bring a new perspective to the family.

I loved the add on characters in this book as per usual the side characters always turn more into family than just a fleeting side note. I hope to see more of them. This series kind of has a underlying serious tone to it bringing to light a real problem human trafficking and how it does need to be stopped. I enjoy how the author didn’t make light of it, and hits it straight on and makes you stop and think about it.

This is author is an auto buy author for me, I have yet to read something I disliked from her. So thank you to Lori Foster, and HQN for a copy in lieu of my honest review.
