Synopsis

A Texas Ranger and a Connecticut lawyer are on the trail of a vicious killer in a New York Times bestselling author's romantic suspense.

After building a career as a defense attorney in New England, Kara Galway has moved back to Texas in search of peace. But her thoughts return to the east coast when her friend and mentor, Connecticut Governor Mike Parisi, is murdered. And the danger is far from over. As soon as Kara's friend Allyson is sworn in as the new governor, she and her family are targeted with mysterious threats.

Now Kara is on her way back to Connecticut, returning to a dangerous world of political corruption, determined to catch a killer. But she's not alone. Texas Ranger Sam Temple is on her trail. And while Kara never asked for his help, he's equally determined to keep her safe.

Goodreads review by Marilyn on July 31, 2023

Enjoyed the main story in this book as much as I did the first two in the series. I have a problem and it's not just with this author.
