Fast and sweet story that will take you no time to enjoy. Definitely one to add to your to be read list of you like the hot growling type.

Greg is definitely a Seal who needs to find a new purpose. The new job does just that plus I think that Mattie is a big part of it. I love the treasure part of the book.

I'd come into this book completely blind - I'd never read anything by Leslie North before but the description intrigued me - I'm a sucker for a single mom romance and this did not disappoint - with a ex-SEAL no less.

The novel is about a museum director, Mattie Salisbury who'd relocated from sunny California with her daughter Liza, to escape from her past (mainly from her ex-husband who's an absolute waste of oxygen) three years ago. When the museum gets vandalised repeatedly (attributed to reports of a 'haunting' that starts to see her revenue decline), she enacts the help of a team to install a new security system. Here, she meets Greg, a former navy SEAL who'd been forced into retirement due to an injury and was now working for Team Oracle security.

Honestly, this book surprised me. I came into it with no expectations and I can 100% say that pleasantly surprised me. Reading the book, I could feel that there was genuine chemistry between the two main characters and all the supporting characters were actively involved in the story. I adored Liza, and loved the relationship she and Greg had. Greg and Mattie were likeable, had easy banter and their character development was really well done.

I feel like this book would be best suited for anyone who loves:
- friends to lovers
- single mom
- bit of mystery
