Man Catherine is the queen of romantic suspense. I loved this book. I loved Thea and Shep. I loved how he built up trust, and the healing journey they both went on. I liked how there wasn't just one bad guy, and how the story unfolded. The twists and turns and spice were well balanced! Can't wait for the next book in the series!

Catherine Cowles does not disappoint. I was curious about Anson ever since reading her Lost and Found series. I loved Anson and Rhodes. Their story of loss and heartache, how they came together and healed. This story kept me guessing and I didn't solve the mystery until the big reveal. Can't wait to read the rest of the series.

I loved this little novella. It was cute and had just the perfect amount of mystery and plot. I almost wish this had been a full length novel I wanted more!

This was my first book by the author. And I enjoyed it a lot! I liked the banter between the two main characters, and how their relationship evolved. I liked both of their backstories and how certain things were revealed. I'm eager to continue this series!

Thank you to Valentine PR, and the author for an ALC copy. The audio and the narrators were amazing! This book was so well done. I laughed, I worried about whether or not the characters would get together in the end and be happy, and I felt there was alot of character growth for the two mains and some of the side characters. This was my first book by the author, and I can't wait to read more of their books!

Thank you to the author and happily booked PR for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. I really enjoyed this book and it is perfect for this time of year. I loved getting a glimpse of some of my favorite characters in this series and what they're up to. Can't wait to see where the series goes from here!

Man I loved this book. I was sucked into it from the very start. And it kept its momentum throughout the entire book. There were some twists and turns I saw coming. And there were some I didn't catch. But the characters and interactions were amazing! I wish there were more books set in this world because the magic system was so cool!
