About the author

Gail Faulkner (forever 38) was born in a frustrated reader's mind. She adores men who know what they want and intend to get it.

One thing she is sure of is, Erotic is the new Sexy and that is excellent news. Slipping on a little black dress is fun, having it ripped off, even better. Okay, maybe we can get him to just take it off but that might be tricky.

Most of all, she loves sharing her daydreams with anyone who will read them.

If you ignore the ugly cover, this is a good story if you like OTT super possessive H. H knows he is in love with h very early in the book. Some initial misunderstandings with h, then an 'h' in danger plot.

Not as good as Gray's story, took a bit to get into.
3.5 stars rounded up. Gray is still the ONE!!!

Rem and Kathryn's past connection is odd. They both have been attracted to each other for three years but Kathryn has been avoiding him, while he has been trying to rein himself in and be polite and gentlemanly to her so as not to scare her off. I couldn't quite get my head around that. I couldn't understand why Kathryn would be hung up on him when she thinks that he likes being with, um... ladies who are easy and that he treats them as disposable.

Things change when Rem overhears a conversation between Kathryn and his sister, Tammy, who is Kathryn's roommate and business partner. He decides he's not going to take the softly, softly approach any longer, and it all explodes in his face. Then further explosions happen as it is revealed that Tammy and Kathryn are in danger. 

I did not like the amount of violence in this story, especially with Kathryn. I don't like to see main characters suffer. It was pretty graphic, and there isn't any trigger warning for those who might need it. However, I liked that Rem is all in for Kathryn from the start (that seems to be a theme in the Ghost Unit books) and that the violent experience didn't drive a wedge between them despite his guilt at failing to protect her.
