Secrets and lies have become deadly.

While investigating the murder of her parents, Roxanne Bowman encounters more than she ever thought she would. The secrets that both of her parents kept knock her off kilter. Finding an intruder in their home afterwards changes her life forever.

GHOST operative, Hawk Delany is back in the swing of things after being shot while working a case. Sent to Washington D.C. to investigate the murder of a foreign dignitary, and an American couple with ties to deadly secrets, places him in a precarious position, between the fight to help solve the murders and to keep his heart from theft by the lovely Roxanne.

This was another great read in this ongoing series.I love a story that has strong female characters and this story had just that.Roxanne has grown up in a military household and her father and brothers made sure she was able to protect herself so its not surprising that she takes it upon herself to solve the murders of her parents and a foreign military dignitary in their mitts.

I loved Roxanne from the onset of the story as she was a strong character also smart and clever as well as sassy and a women who grew up in a home with tons of love.

Hawk Delaney was a character who is all about getting the job done and a man who is definitely  haunted with his past after 10 years of guarding his heart one slip of a girl has shaken the man to his core.

I loved the story from beginning to end and everything in between and I have to say I think Roxanne rocked throughout the whole story with her working with the team of GHOST members she was finally getting the answers she had been wanting and was a big part of solving her own mystery and we just loved that.The story drew you in right from the very beginning as it was action packed and intriguing to the very end .One thing we also loved is that the story has a really great cast of characters that make you laugh and they all have a wicked sense of humor and even the slightly broken ones start healing when they meet the one meant for them.

We can't wait to see what happens next !

Let's start off by saying this was our first read by this author and we thoroughly enjoyed our first read by them.

The story had you enmeshed in the story right from the beginning as it started off with a bang and drew you right in.The story was suspenseful and intriguing and one twisted plot that kept us glued to the pages the entire time.

Loved Sophie and Gaige and Hawk they made a great team.We loved the suspenseful story that was filled with chemistry and intrigue,murder,sexy times,forging new friendships and also reviving a friendship that fell to the wayside.

Sophie is in trouble and the only one she trusts to turn to is Gaige her brothers best friend who runs a elite company called G.H.O.S.T where they make amazing things happen. Gaige is Sophie's last resort and the man of her dreams that she has been crushing on since her childhood.

The story heated up quite a bit when these two decided to act on their feelings when both of them spoke up about how they have always felt about one another.We loved the amazing chemistry this couple had as they were super hot together and perfect from one another as Sophie would have no problem fitting into Gaige's company and then men he considers family.

We loved the story from beginning to end as so much was going on constantly to keep you turning the pages and we loved how the whole story unfolded because the story kept you guessing the entire time and I have to say that there were so many pieces to unravel things weren't looking good for a bit but, through sure endurance and a whole lot of team work secret after secret kept coming to light and more then than a few surprises we didn't see coming and we just love when that happens.

Overall a fantastic read and we are looking forward to continuing they rest of this series.Recommended read to all !

Writing has been a desire my whole life. Once I found the courage to write, life changed for me in the most profound way. Bringing stories to readers that I'd enjoy reading and creating characters that are flawed, but lovable is such a joy.

When not writing, I'm with my family doing something fun. My husband, Gene, and I are bikers and enjoy riding to new locations, meeting new people and generally enjoying this fabulous country we live in.

I come from a family of veterans. My grandfather, father, brother, two sons, and one daughter-in-law are all veterans. Needless to say, I am proud to be an American and proud of the service my amazing family has given.
