I received this as an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This was a great story, and this book was well written by Stacy Deanne. I loved the characters of Alexis Adams, Penelope Dao, and Kevin Reed. This book is intriguing, with some humor, and it also involves romance, mystery, and suspense. There are several twists and turns within the story that makes it interesting. This book has some steamy and kinky sex scenes. Alexis has been gone from her home town of Tate Valley for twenty years, and when she returns, she still has feelings for her long time love—Kevin Reed, who now works for Copeland Enterprises. Alexis is a detective for Tate Valley, and she and Penelope are investigating the murder of Donovan McCoy, the son of the senior executive Benson McCoy at Copeland Enterprises. Copeland Enterprises is owned by Grant Copeland—Alexis’ nemesis. While Alexis is solving the McCoy murder, both she and Kevin find that they are still attracted to each other and their budding romance flourish. Also, while Alexis and Penelope are solving one murder another one occurs. This book will pique your interest. Will Alexis be able to solve the McCoy murder and the second murder? Who killed Donovan McCoy? Why is Grant Copeland her nemesis—what happened? Will Alexis and Kevin be able to make this budding romance flourish for good this time?

I enjoyed this book. I had not read book one, and I was fine with just reading this one. Alexis and Penelope are two police officers investigating the murder of a young man as he was attempting to rape a young lady. While this is going on, Alexis is investigating a wealthy man, Grant, in the town for a possible conspiracy. This is causing problems between Alexis and her boyfriend, Kevin that works for Grant. The book is really two stories going on at the same time, with the story of Grant to be continued. I received this book for free in return for an honest review. Now I am looking forward to the next book.

Chasing forever. I received this book as an ARC member in return for an honest review. Alexis' case in this book is really strange and takes a while to crack with a few twists. Meanwhile Alexis and Kevin's relationship is crazy. They love each other but when they are together they fight about Grant and then have makeup sex to the extreme. Alexis feels strongly that Grant is hiding something and will not rest until she knows and makes him pay for what was done to her mother.

I received an ARC copy for an honest review. I enjoy murder mysteries. in this story one was solved while another shooting occurred and the police are unaware of the situation. I didn't know it would be a continuation

Very suspenseful and steamy

I loved it. Alexis was running around trying to solve murders while her boyfriend worked and believed in her enemy. She wanted to get Grant for any wrong doing. I love Lexi and Kevin they were always hot for each other. Great book!!

Great book two

This series is great. This book had great sex scenes between Kevin and Alexis. Alexis is still holding on to her grudge with Grant which is getting a little bit annoying. This murder took an unexpected turn. Looking forward to the next book.
