I like this story better than the first book - that of Jeremy and Marie. It must be the dash of mystery and danger sprinkled all over on top of the romance between Sonny and Nikki. It kept me glued to the Kindle. [I received an advanced copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.]

Sonny Lovett is still interested in his fathers criminal case. Needing some additional information sends him to the library where he sees quiet, beautiful Niki. Unfortunately, digging around into criminal cases tracks the attention of unwanted people that puts them both in danger.

Another great book by jh croix and ali parker. Sonny is on the swat team and continues to look into his fathers case while being told not too, niki is the libertarian and when she helps sonny her life is in danger now too. Can't wait to see where the story leads to in book 2.

An exciting romance, we start with Sonny, a cop, interested in investing the conviction of his father. Something is off there, and his own investigation leads him to go to Niki, a librarian, for assistance getting unredacted newspaper files. Other odd characters begin to pop up, and Niki is directed to stay with Sonny for protection. I was immediately swept up in this story, and although this one ends in a cliffhanger, I can't wait to see what will come next. Amazing writing, and fantastic characters. Very highly recommend suspensful romance. This is a voluntary review of an advance reader copy.

Terrific continuation of the Lovett Brothers story. This storyline covers the brother, Sonny the cop and his love interest, the town Librarian, Niki. Sony is the only brother who believes his father was framed and convicted then sent to prison wrongly. So he's out to prove his innocence. But forces are out there trying to make sure that doesn't happen putting him and Niki in danger.

An intriguing storyline with fantastic characters that take you on a rollercoaster ride with twists and turns.

Nikki is the shy librarian who has no family but her best friend. She loves helping people Sonny and Nikki are so perfect for each other and I can't wait to find out what will happen in the next installment to this fabulous series.

Wow, another suspence, mystery starts with Sonny Lovett, Jeremy's younger brother who is a cop, searching for clues to see whether his father is really the culprit or the victim of the embezzlement and corruption charges he's been convicted of, along the way Niki Holmes the shy librarian, gets caught up with him. I won't say more as this is the first book in a trilogy and so ends on a cliffhanger, but it is thrilling and exciting and I just wanted to keep on turning the pages. Can't wait for the next one.

OMG. These two authors rock. This book is so good. I can't wait to read book 2. Sonny is a cop. He has 4 brothers. They all went through he'll when their fathervwent to jail. Sonny thinks his father is innocent. There are people that aren't happy about him wanting information about the trail. A lot has been blacked out. Why. Nikki is the librarian & she wants to help Sonny. He doesn't want her to be in danger because of him. I highly recommend this book. Thanks.

This story was so interesting that it kept my attention from the first page through to the end. Sonny, the youngest of five brothers, is a cop, a hometown boy all grown up and relentlessly trying to find out whether or not his father, the ex-mayor who's now in prison for embezzlement and extortion. Niki is the librarian and offers her help with research that Sonny is trying to do. The attraction between the two is intense. This book did end in a cliff hanger, not something that I'm a big fan of, but hey, it sure is worth a read.

I voluntarily received and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. Do not read this book if you hate cliffhangers because it ends in a doozy of a cliffhanger. Another brother trying to prove his father is innocent leads to a host of difficulties and dander. It will keep you guessing and in the end you will not be satisfied. You will want more. You will fall in love with Sonny and Milo's story and want to know how it will end. Again your wishes will not be granted in this book and you will not be able to put it down.

This is about Sonny, one of the Lovett brother and Niki, town librarian.libr Somny is a cop thatcoo has doubts about his dad's conviction - he feels there is more to the story.

Can he get things sorted out and figure out what else happened?
