Detective Logan Beck would do anything to keep Liana away from the corruption charges that dirtied his record and now endangered his life. But the stubborn redhead wouldn't take "Go away" for an answer. And now he didn't know which was more threatening--the hero-worship he saw in her beautiful eyes, or the primal urge to protect this woman who could never be his.
I haven't read any other Redstone Incorporated novels, although it reminds me of the Red Stone Security books by Katie Reus. Although some plot points are based on previous books, I didn't feel that I was confused or lost at any point. I liked Liana and her loyalty and I liked Logan. Liana was smart and logical and resourceful - and she saves herself! He's all she's been kidnapped and then she calls to say hey guess what, I rescued myself and now I need a lift - totally badass. The plot was interesting and solid, even if a little simplistic. The romance was obviously a main plot point and was well executed. Although, more backstory into how they met and their "past" - it's not really a past they knew each other for like 3 days, although it was an intense high stress three days - would've made this stronger - too much of the development happens off page. That said, I did enjoy their interactions and Liana's character. There was lots of humour and a few one liners I quite liked. Solid overall read.
