[Susan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book. Slade did his very best to convince Maggie that he was no good, had no redeeming value. The reality of being on the run, and finding out more about his past, almost made her agree. But in spite of everything, Maggie knew that he wasn't as bad as he thought he was, that he was very capable of the caring and love she knew was inside him. I loved the conclusion to the story, and I'm really looking forward to the next phase of the agency.

In Webb's romantic suspense novel, Slade Keaton was the man Maggie James fell in love with until she learned that he had lied. On the run and escaping a hit meant for him, she fled a danger she didn't understand with a man she wasn't sure she even knew. And now she was pregnant with his child. Slade had lived a life of aliases, but still couldn't forget that he was the son of a merciless assassin named the Dragon. Until the Colby Agency investigation had put him and Maggie on her radar, he'd managed to stay outside his mother's reach. Now Slade just may become the thing he most detested to save the woman and child he loved. A fast-paced addition to the Colby Agency Secrets series.
