Under His Skin

Nighthawk Island #10

by Rita Herron

He'd been a top-notch cop until a fire forced Parker Kilpatrick out of uniform and into the healing hands of nurse Grace Gardener. Grace's bedside manner and haunting blue eyes pulled at every protective string in Parker's body—and threatened to soften his famously gruff facade. Then Grace was attacked, thrusting them both into the line of fire. As Parker learned more about Grace's past, new clues inextricably linked a cold case to the recent violence on Nighthawk Island. Now the enemy had left Parker no choice but to put his beloved job on the line… and break every rule to keep an innocent—and irresistible—woman safe.

About the author

I had to order this one from PBS after I finished the previous book in the Nighthawk Island series by Herron because there's a direct character connection between the two. The hero in this book, Parker, was gravely injured in Up In Flames and this book picks up with him recovering in the hospital. So I was definitely interested in reading this one too see what happened with Parker. And I wasn't disappointed. Herron always tells such interesting romantic suspense tales. I enjoyed all aspects of the book. I had one or two quibbles on details that didn't quite work right and there was one side-detail that I wanted to know that wasn't told. But other than that, a solid book.
