Rating:
I loved this book from cover to cover. I was pretty sure I had all the bad guys picked out early on, but I have to admit I get surprised by one at the end, which I love when I can't figure it all out. I love the chemistry between Kade and Kelsey and that she didn't just fall at his feet from the beginning, but he had to work hard to get her to open up to him. In my opinion, a good book is one that brings out a myriad of emotions, and that is exactly what this one did. I had adrenaline pumping, and the sex scenes were not only hot but intimate, and the scenes with Trent warmed my heart. I felt myself smiling at times and turning the pages faster to see what happens next. I can't wait to read the next in the Armed & Dangerous series.
