As a child welfare worker Natalie Dunn has seen a lot of things. What she doesn't count on is while caring for 3 children she discovers a serial killer's lair. Getting the children to safety is her top priority no matter even if it costs her her career. Drake Byrd is called to bring a woman and 3 children to a safe house. Expecting to find a matronly case worker with the children he is surprised by the instant attraction he has to the beautiful woman Natalie Dunn turns out to be. But Drake has no time or desire to get involved with anyone at this time. Especially a woman saddled with children! His job is to protect them and that is it, nothing more. So why does being with Natalie cause him to dream of something more?
I loved the excitement of this story! As always author Susan Sleeman hooks you from the very beginning of the book. I couldn't put it down! And seriously y'all, the Byrd brothers!! Drake may just have been the swooniest for me so far! I enjoyed following the leads that Drake and Natalie explored in order to find the serial killer. I loved Drake and Natalie's relationship development. Even though Drake has a hardened and bad-boy attitude he has a soft side that Natalie and the children brought out. And just like Natalie, what's not to love about a man that treats his mom with such tenderness, care and respect? So now that the D-Byrd is finished we move on to E. I look forward to reading Erik's story! Oh, and one more thing. Just like every book I have read in this series, when it was over I felt a little sad. It was like closing the door and saying good-bye to friends. There is always a sadness until you get to see them again. That is why I am looking forward to the next book!
