Sophie Lane is struggling. She's living with the man of her dreams, and her career is soaring, but she's conflicted. She’s in love, but she’s scared to say the words in case her beloved Grady doesn’t feel the same way. Grady Hardy is a man on a mission. He's going to tell the woman he loves how he feels – just as soon as he can muster the courage to do it. He’s plagued by doubt, and that’s something he’s never had to grapple with before. When Sophie’s foster father approaches Hardy Brothers Security with a case – women are disappearing across the Canadian border and being sold into sexual slavery – they can’t turn away. It’s not about money. It’s about human decency. Everyone is fired up when the investigation launches. Between a sketchy prosecutor, Jake’s undercover mission, Mandy’s curiosity, and Emma’s out-of-control empathy for a potential victim, everyone is in an uproar. There’s more than one relationship at stake. Everyone needs to work together to secure a happy family future, but when Sophie’s life hangs in the balance, Grady may be the one who ultimately loses. Can this family pull together and save her? Or will Grady miss his chance at happily ever after?
Note: This is the eighth book in the Hardy Brothers Security mystery series.
This was a bit tough to get through...the bickering went a bit far and was almost distracting, but I managed to work through it. I like the addition of Sophie's dad getting involved with the brothers...cool twist!
.. 5 women have gone missing and it's looking likely that more will vanish. Peter Marconi asks the Hardy Brothers to help him stop the traders.. but who are they?
When Emma recalls another model talking about escaping, Sophie chases down the lead. The men head out too and soon enough word is out.
Lily is taken to Peter's for protection but suddenly vanishes.. with all that's going on can they weed out the fact from fiction and save Sophie from a fate worse than death itself?
I love this series! All the classic ingredients of a Lily Harper Hart/Amanda M Lee series are on clear display….funny dialogue, great family and romantic relationships, interesting mysteries, hunky heroes and smart heroines. And now, the supposed mobster foster father gets to show more of his conflicted yet honorable character. What’s not to love?
The Hardy brothers and friends just can't stay out of trouble. Action, mystery, murder and romance. Something for everyone. Can't wait to read the next book.
Another great Hardy story! This one actually had a pretty good mix of all of the couples, which I enjoyed. That was my one complaint with previous stories--it seemed like there was always one couple that was barely mentioned. But all 4 couples were involved in this book, which was nice to see.
Mandy and James are my favorite, so I was glad that we still got to catch up with them! It was also really nice to see Sophie and Grady's relationship progress. It looks like Emma and Finn may be the focus of the next book, and I am excited to see where their story goes.
The mystery was great! I was definitely surprised by the culprit, and I really enjoyed the twist! Can't wait to read the next book!
Awesome story! Can't wait for the next. Great add to the series! Keeps getting better and better! Love these guys and it was a non stop twist after another!
