My Review:
This novel is the perfect balance between romance and suspense. Either an FBI agent or a psychologist is the target of a shooter, and there seems to be no clues to determine which one is the intended victim. Complicating the mystery is the chemistry between the two potential victims who have "history."

I did not want to put this book down; it held my attention until the very end with its super plot. The characters are written such that I felt as if I knew them and could feel their struggles. The situations were true to life. I loved this book. It's the second in this series, but can be read and enjoyed on its own.
