Review
In the first Broslin Creek
novel, Kate Bridges is the only person who can identify the number one person
on the FBI2527s Most Wanted List, so that man is determined to find and kill her.
She only stays in one place for a few months at a time, and she2527s currently
renting a house from someone who doesn2527t own it. When the real owner unexpectedly
returns home, she2527s knows she2527s in trouble.

After an eight-month
deployment in Afghanistan, US Army Reserves officer Murph Dolan returns home
injured (physically and mentally) and only wants to get back to his old life.
When he finds a sexy redhead asleep in his bed, he thinks she2527s a welcome home
present, at least until she starts screaming and pulls a gun on him. As it
turns out, his brother rented the house to her. Murph can tell she2527s in
trouble—he2527s a former cop and his instincts are on high alert—but he can2527t help
her unless she confides in him.

Kate and Murph are
wonderful characters. Kate has lived a hard life growing up in foster care, but
she lucked out with her wonderful adoptive family. She2527s a tough, smart woman
who2527s had to make some tough choices to keep her family safe. Murph had a rough
childhood, too, but he fared better than Kate did. He has PTSD and serious
guilt about his friends and comrades dying overseas, which he thinks is his
fault. They2527re both broken people, but their trust in one another helps them
heal.

This is a really good
book. There are a lot of twists and turns, but I did guess who the villain was
right away. Still, I enjoyed the way Kate and Murph tried to uncover the
identity of the second assassin and how to trap him.

The ending of the book
surprised me. There2527s a HEA, but there2527s also a loose end. I2527m hoping this will
be tied up in the next book, but I don2527t think it will be due to certain things
happening in this story, which I don2527t want to spoil for readers.

will check out more books in the series.
