Beneath the Scars has a great heroine, Lacey Burke, an undercover detective with a great track record. She's tough and cannot back down from either a chase or a fight, but there are nightmares that keep her awake. Her experience in foster care made her lean on herself so much so that she has room for no one, especially her partner, Jason who is a major playboy.
I loved reading this and even though there's the thrill of trying to uncover the secrets in Lacey's past and who's been stalking her, I'd admit that this did not thrill me as much. I was expecting an action packed, fast paced chase and more than one or two goosebumps, but I got a great dose of friendship, trust and patience on Jason's side in pursuing Lacey, so I guess that was something.
I received a copy of this book from NetGalley and I'd add that I loved the cover and Jason's sister-Rachel.
