Engaging and gripping, with a convoluted plot.

What I liked best is that so much of it was unusual for average Christian fiction. Kira is an African-American woman who was adopted in her youth by a family with three boys, who all became policemen. The sibling relationship is very well written, with believable exchanges between siblings, and humorous moments when her brothers get overprotective. But Kira is a strong woman who knows her own mind, and nobody's going to get in the way of her helping a brother and sister through her job as a social worker. Except said brother and sister are in the middle of a drug ring, and all the officers have to work together to solve the crimes and make sure the kids have a safe chance at starting over.
Definitely enjoyed the storyline for this one. Also, the romance is understated and enjoyable. No smut.

I was good, not very realistic. It is Fiction after all, though I found it to be a little far fetched. I didn't understand the characters very well, as they were all over the place.
