A sizzling romantic suspense.
Her enemy is her passion, her passion is her enemy.
Lindsey
Paxton was once the number one defence attorney in New York. She fought
for those who were innocent, but charged. Her instincts were her
lifeline, never failing her, as they guided her in her choices of who to
defend. Or so she thought. Until she won a case she would forever wish
to have lost. Her client, an accused rapist, kills and rapes a woman
only a day after being set free. Destroyed by her role in the woman's
death, Lindsey blames her father's controlling ways for what she has
become, and runs from her career and life. Years later - the past
becomes the present . . . Her father has cancer, and Lindsey is forced
to leave her career with the Washington branch of the FBI. She finds
herself facing the responsibility of running her father's law firm with
the reluctant help of hotshot attorney Mark Reeves, a man who sparks her
temper while also managing to tempt her body, her mind, maybe even her
heart. With his help she finds herself fighting the emotional battles of
the past, tempted to trust both him and her instincts. Now, faced with a
case inherited from her father so similar to her career-ending one, she
now must decide if her instincts will lead her down the path to saving
an innocent man or setting free another killer. But while she fights her
own battles, someone watches, wanting from the past what he had failed
to get the first time . . . Lindsey.
This is a prequel to the Tall, Dark, and Deadly romance series and has previously released as Hidden Instincts. I hate when authors do that!!!
A nice book, good story which involves Lindsey having to get Mark to bail out her father law firm when he gets cancer but a serial killer is on the lose and its up to mark and Lindsey to solve the case ....and fall in love
I give it 3 STARS

I've aready read book 1
Royce Walker, a former FBI Agent, who's opened a private security firm
with his brothers, has always had the hots for the prim, proper
Assistant District Attorney, but considered her hand's off because of a
family connection. However, when danger threatens Lauren, he isn't
willing to stand by and watch her get hurt. Now the passion for survival
is only rivaled by the passion burning between them. And that passion,
might just be the death of them both.
And I've also read DANGEROUS SECRETS which is book 2
Being a divorce attorney for the rich and famous isn't all it's cracked
up to be. Julie Harrison has learnt that love doesn't last, and she's
sworn never to make the same mistakes as her mother, or her clients. She
uses the games men play to keep them at a distance. The only man who
managed to break down her walls was Luke Walker, a Navy SEAL who loved
her and left her, and changed her forever.
When Luke arrives back
in New York, running Walker Security with his brothers and having left
his Navy SEAL days behind, he sets his sights on Julie, the woman he's
always wanted and couldn't have. Except, she runs from him every time he
gets close.
But now, one of Julie's clients, a powerful judge,
gets involved with a dangerous cartel, and his soon-to-be-ex wife ends
up dead. Julie's next on the list, and she finds herself on the run from
those who believe she knows too much, and counting on Luke to keep her
alive. In the deepest, darkest moments of the night, passion will bring
them together while danger threatens to tear them apart. Can Julie and
Luke trust each other and find their happy ending before they find ...
the end?
Both are good books and worth a read, I hate it when I start a series without realising am really not at the beginning and was a little narked to find that I should have started with Secrets Exposed.
But you can't help but fall for the Walker boys, all muscle and guns to save the day and get the girl.
I Give the series so far 3.5 STARS
So, I'm off to read Beneath the Secrets Book 3, Part1 ( this is another pet hate of mine, the series of short stories instead of waiting and publish the book in one go, I'm sure its so the author can get more money out of you)
Good news is that all 4 are now available in 1 book and its a good read, I finished it in a day, had to know what happens next and then it leaves you with a cliff hanger at the end and I've just checked on the website for the next book and there's no info :-(
Part 1 contains One Dangerous night which gives you a run down on what has happened in Blakes life and then continues in Beneath the Secrets
PRELUDE: One Dangerous Night
Blake
Walker left behind the ATF when the drug cartel he was hunting cost him
the life of his fellow agent, and fiancee. Now, two years later, he's
working with his brothers at Walker Security, but he's living fast,
hard, and wild, until he reaches the ultimate high...revenge. And he's
close, so close he can taste it. He's one meeting, one woman, away from
being inside one of the money laundering shells the cartel operates.
One woman....
One dangerously hot night....
Beneath the Secrets, Part One
Two paths collide.
Two
people who will do anything, including sleeping with the enemy, to
avenge or save someone they love. But what if everything isn't as it
seems and the enemy isn't the enemy at all? Can these two broken people
drawn together by their sizzling hot attraction see beyond their pain
and their need for vengeance and find the trust they will need to
survive a vicious drug lord's wrath before it's too late?
If you love Romance/Suspense you'll love this series :-)
Its got to be 4 STARS for me
