Entangled: Select Suspense
NYPD
Detective Gray Yates has major trust issues. Protecting a serenely beautiful
woman hiding enough secrets to take down an entire city wasn’t something he
bargained for. She’s a loving single mother, hot as hell, and protecting her
will test every ounce of his resolve.
Alex Romano
is being blackmailed by the Pyramid—an elusive international organization of
assassins every cop in the world is after. When Alex tries severing ties with
them they refuse to let her go. The darkly dangerous detective she’s irresistibly
drawn to is her only hope of staying out of jail. He just might be her
savior…or her downfall.
Despite
efforts to maintain his professionalism, Gray can’t deny the fiery passion Alex
ignites in him. In an explosive confrontation, Alex’s lies are revealed and
Gray is faced with the most important decision of his life: trust the woman
he’s falling in love with, or arrest her.
Gray and Alex were interesting. I liked the way the development of their relationship was handled, the idea that they were attracyed to one another, and starting to act on that attraction, and then events happened that got in the way.
It was an interesting perspective, and in a way a second chance romance, even though not a lot of time had passed.
I thought the catalyst for the situation was believable without being overwrought, which can be a difficult balance, as when an author uses a child as the motivation for adults, sometimes the characterization falls to the side and the author uses "it's for a child" as the reason for all the motivation. And, while this is legitimate, it is a tough read...and the author avoided doing this here, which kept it interesting.
The pacing was strong and consistent and the writing and dialog were also interesting and believable...I liked Gray and Alex, I wanted to see what happened with them, and I liked the ultimate resolution.
I recommend this book.
