ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
No-nonsense Liis Lindy is an agent of the FBI. Deciding she is married only to her job, she breaks off her engagement and transfers from Chicago to the field office in San Diego. She dreams of promotions and shaking hands with the director after cracking an impossible case.
Special Agent in Charge Thomas Maddox is arrogant, unforgiving, and ruthless. He is tasked with putting away some of the world’s toughest criminals, and he is one of the best the Bureau has to offer. Though, as many lives as he’s saved, there is one that is beyond his reach. Younger brother Travis is faced with prison time for his involvement in a basement fire that killed dozens of college students, and the media want a conviction. Travis’s only savior is his unusual tie to the mob. In a deal that will spare his brother, Thomas has agreed to recruit Travis into the FBI.
Liis is stubborn, defiant, and yet somehow softens Thomas’s rough edges, making her the perfect agent to accompany him to the ceremony. Posing as a couple, they must travel to Travis & Abby’s beach vow renewal and give him the news, but when the pretending ends, she finds herself wondering if they were pretending at all.

Jamie McGuire threw me at the end of Oblivion with the reveal of who TJ was, so I was double excited to read Redemption to see how this all played out. Thomas' story was tough because you knew he was beating himself up with guilt over loving the same girl as his brother while mourning the loss of her and be supportive of Trent's relationship with her. He put himself in a pretty shitty situation all while hiding his career and what he was doing to try and save Travis' ass. There were so many reasons to hate Thomas, but it was too damn hard not too.
I didn't think I was going to like Liis. She was too emotionally closed off and so focus on her career that she didn't see anything else around her. I like that Thomas ruffled her feathers, that Val, Marks and Sawyer forced their friendship on her, because she needed all of that. She needed Thomas to love her, truly love her, and she needed her friend to show how much they had her back...no matter what happened.
