4 1/2 STARS!
Love when she least expects it! She's not looking to have chemistry with a man who may have family involved in the crime she's investigating, but that's exactly what she gets! The plot is intriguing and keeps us guessing from the start trying to figure out who and what is really going on around there. The characters are well developed and though the romance is a tad light, the story flows well and leads to a great conclusion!
Police officer Lyndsay Fairfax certainly isn't looking to make a romantic connection while she's on her first undercover assignment in Wallis Point, but she finds it none-the-less! In pursuing leads on a burglary ring, she poses as a tradesmen to get in with the contractors around the area who know the ins and outs of the area houses. That takes her to the local hangout a lot ... and face to face with a sexy brooding stranger!
Former marine John Reilly never envisioned himself helping run the family restaurant and bar, yet circumstances and tragedy led to this very place. When a lead puts his little brother on Lyn's radar with the break-ins, John doesn't have a clue and continues to believe they are starting a possible relationship. When she is left with no alternative than to turn over the info she knows, will they be able to salvage any part of their friendship ... and more ... once all is said and done?

Undercover officer Lyndsay Fairfax has no idea what she's getting into when she begins her stint as an interior designer in order to break up a burglary ring. Her neighbor turns out to be a marine veteran, John Reilly, who comes home to make sure his mother's restaurant doesn't go under and to stand by his troubled younger brother. He's on house arrest for a drug crime.
When Lyndsay enlists John's help with an unexpected plumbing problem, she finds herself falling for him. Even though she shouldn't. Then when he stumbles into a stake-out that nets two burglars and leads directly to John's brother, Lyndsay has no choice but to come clean with who and what she really is.
Trouble with that is her professional role may just have destroyed the personal life she now craves.
