Description:
U.S. Marshal Jake Taylor has seen plenty of action during his years in law enforcement. But he'd rather go back to Iraq than face his next assignment: protection detail for federal judge Liz Michaels. His feelings toward Liz haven't warmed in the five years since she lost her husband--and Jake's best friend--to possible suicide. How can Jake be expected to care for the coldhearted workaholic who drove his friend to despair?
As the danger mounts and Jake gets to know Liz better, his feelings slowly start to change. When it becomes clear that an unknown enemy may want her dead, the stakes are raised. Because now both her life--and his heart--are in mortal danger.
My Thoughts:I really, really like Irene Hannon's books. Her books remind me of another of my favorite authors: Dee Henderson. They have a really nice combination of suspense and romance. I always love a hero, and Jake is definately a hero. I like how he treats Liz and how he stands by her even when he has misgivings about her. I grew to like Liz too. I liked her determination. A great read! I hope that there is more to come about these characters, especially Jake's sister.
