My Review:
Why I read this: I've read the first two in this series and I was intrigued by Jackson who has made his appearances but who was rather mysterious, like Trace was before we got to know him in his book, so I was itching to learn about Jackson.


My thoughts:  Wow, this book was just amazing.  I loved the first two books but this has to be my favorite in the series.  So much was going on in the book, yet it seemed so simple in ways.  It all took place over a period of a few days.  A lot of it was the tension between Jackson and Alani, but it was good tension and what was cool was they already knew each other and the book opens with them knowing each other really well. ;)

Ms. Foster never ceases to amaze me in her creation of chracters.  Jackson is another amazing alpha male with a soft side for the right female in his life.  Alani is a soft female with a strong backbone with needed.  She won't be walked on, but she knows when it's best to back off as well.  I loved Alani.  She's been through a lot, but she's making her way back to a normal life and then she's thrown into a big mess with Jackson but she takes it in stride and just sticks right to Jackson's side.  She's in love with Jackson and doesn't know what to do about that but decides to enjoy the relationship as long as she can.  But then there is the conflict of who is shooting and stalking them.

Jackson has been wanting Alani forever and now he's had her and can't remember it but he's got her again and he wants more, but can't get Alani to make the confession of love and he can't figure out his feelings.  Add in the person shooting at them and his little secret that Trace is breathing down his neck about and Jackson is stretched pretty thin.  But he handles himself, staying cool.  I loved Jackson, he is the ultimate man, and so perfect for Alani.

The suspense was great, but definitely took a backseat to the romance, but was there enough for those who like suspense in their romance.  I was always wondering what would happen next and was never disappointed.  A lot went on in this book and it was tied up really nice.  It was hard to put down, so you might want to block out an afternoon if you pick this one up because you might not want to put it down.  I found myself reading while cooking and sneaking reads while waiting for stuff while working as well - it's that good.  I actually finished this several days ago and I still feel like Jackson and Alani are with me - it's that good.  And the ending is great because it leads into at least one book next year and hopefully more.  I won't say more because I don't want to spoil anything.


My Rating: 5.0/5.0


About the Book:
She may be aloof, and more pretty than gorgeous, but Alani Rivers is the kind of woman a hot-blooded mercenary can't forget, no matter how hard he tries. So when Jackson Savor wakes up next to the naked, sleeping beauty—with no memory of what happened— he knows he's been drugged…even if Alani doesn't.


After she was kidnapped, Alani vowed never to trust another man again. Still, something about this strong, sexy hero with the tender touch makes her want to believe him. As Jackson hunts down a mysterious intruder, he swears he'll move heaven and earth to keep Alani safe. But what really happened that night? And will the truth bring them closer than they ever thought possible—or put Alani squarely in harm's way again?
