A fun weekend at a friend’s wedding in Denver takes a bizarre twist for Anna Scott when her rental car is pulled over due to an “anonymous tip.” In her trunk…a dead man linked to warring crime families in Denver and New York. It should be easy for an innocent woman to be cleared for an simple mix-up. But was it a mistake? The police aren’t so sure, and neither is the crime boss who wants vengeance for his son-in-law’s death. Suddenly appearing on the radar means that now Anna Scott is in real trouble. Two years ago, Anna Scott didn’t exist. The police think she knows way too much about criminal procedures and they’re determined to find out her secret. Their attention forces Anna to play a deadly game of cat and mouse with both the mafia and the police. This twist of fate could not only expose her, but place her, and anyone close to her in jeopardy.
Jake Griffin is playing a deadly game. He’s spent the last few months undercover in the Moretti crime family. The mysterious and beautiful Anna Scott is a big problem. Moretti assigns him to find out who she is and what she’s after, and to kill her if she becomes a problem. Jake needs to focus on taking down Moretti, not risking his life and career protecting a sexy woman who is a complete mystery. Unfortunately, he can’t stop wondering about her. He knows she’s lying, but his gut instincts, and the bone deep desire he feels every time he sees her, won’t allow him to walk away. He discovers that he’s willing to go to war with the whole world for one alluring, yet vulnerable woman. He can’t seem to stop taking desperate gambles where she’s concerned. The most dangerous of all might be trusting her with the truth.

Why, oh Why did I wait so long to read this story? It's been sitting a while before I got to it. It was powerful had quite the punch to it with incredible depth. You want emotion in your story? This will do it to you. You want interesting people? Put a check mark in that box as well. It also had PLENTY of dangerous plots to keep things moving but without being confusing. That was a win to me.
Anna was someone who was fascinating to Jake and I admit that she was fascinating to me too. She turned Jake upside down as he tried to figure out if she was as innocent as she appeared. It's going to take a while. It was an enjoyable journey when watching her growth from terrified walking it alone woman to overcoming it all.
Jake (Grif) had his secrets too as he walked a very dangerous line. As dangerous as it was at least HE wasn't walking alone. But like Anna what a great character he was too. I loved them both.
By the way, there will
be heat between Anna and Grif. But first there is tenderness and
understanding from Grif. And anger for what she has gone through. He
was up for whatever it took for her to get justice.
This story was filled with surprises and some off-the chart evil people. A spectacular ending with a good epilogue made me happy.
I received a free copy of this book and this is my honest opinion of it.
