another brilliant read.
Book two continues the story of the Maguire and Law families.
One time enemies now business partners.
As soon as I finished cool one I just had to start this right away I wanted to continue reading about the characters and what was happening to them.
and the more I read the better the book got. with twists and turns all the way through these books are defiantly worth reading.
Now I'm off to start book 3.

Story line much improved
Editing still needs improving. However, the second book held my interest more than book one. The Author appears to be improving her writing skills. I am anxious to see how book three turns out.

Wow, loved this story.
I would say, read the first book, before you start this story.
Mrs Rachel Maguire, knows what she wants to do in the near future, and continues to find out how to do it.
I was thinking, I’m glad she has good friends.
Her life has changed now, but she can cope with anything.
If she could manage the clubs, she could manage another business.
There was so much going on this story, I couldn’t put it down.
Now I start the next.

Brilliant
I thought this was even better than the first in the series, a brilliant read I just couldn't put down. Rachel suffers such sadness but Ryan Law is forever waiting in the wings for the day she finally let's him in. More gangsters, murders, double crossing and so much more to make this a fantastic read. I highly recommend this book to all.

An absolutely riveting read.
So far Heather Atkinson's books have got me hooked. I started with the first book in the series 'Dividing Line' and now I can't wait to start the third.
I'd definitely recommend to anyone who's looking for a great page turner.

This is the second book I’ve read from Helen Atkinson and like the first, I am transported to the middle of the plot, surrounded by the characters.
