This book basically had everything I love:

🥃Forced proximity 
🐎Small town
🥃Suspense 
🐎Plot twists
🥃Steam

I absolutely loved Grant and Laney as a couple. Neither is a pushover and their chemistry was off the charts. But I also loved Laney individually too. I'm a sucker for a strong female character and I loved how she stood up for herself. 

The suspense part of this book was very well done. I did figure out a couple parts but overall was kept on the edge of my seat. The protective retired K9 dog was a bonus.

I'm excited to read the next book in the series.
