writerbeverly's review against another edition
5.0
4.5 stars. This one's a two-fer. Two parallel romances while four people are hiding out from a baddie who wants to kill all of them.
Disclaimer: I'm personally acquainted with the author and received a free copy of this work.
The first thing that spooked me about this book is that it opens with a grocery store robbery gone wrong, with a dead cashier, and I began reading it just after a grocery store robbery gone wrong, with a dead store manager, in my own neighborhood. Dee J, can you please write a story about an author who also writes book reviews winning the lottery?
Second, the foursome goes to the Sequoia National Forest to hide out "under the radar" before they are scheduled to testify against the robbers they saw in the grocery store. Guess where my family has been camping for the last 40 years?
Content warning/spoiler alert: early on, one of the characters walks in on a suicide scene. Blood, guts, pooping in the woods, doesn't bother me, but that scene kind of haunted me, as well as the character. Another case of the author showing great skill, but if that is a trigger for you, you might want to read her other books instead.
This book was a must-read that I enjoyed very much. The heroes are hot and so are the sex scenes, the heroines are likewise brave and full of initiative. None of the characters are cookie-cutter, and they ALL have a nice story arc and a HFN (Happily for Now), of which, as a writer, I am standing in awe. Recommended for lovers of romantic suspense, and fans of the Sequoia National Forest.

darkness223's review against another edition
4.0
This is the first book I have read in the series and it was an action-packed read with a good storyline that had plenty of drama and kept me reading late into the night. It was a well written suspenseful read about that follows four people who witness a bank robbery as they try to stay safe until they get to court.If was a super read and I cannot wait to read the rest of the series

"This hot and steamy romance is filled to the brink with action! There is not a moment where the pace slows down."
