Whoa whoa whoa, this book took off right from the beginning and never stopped! I would have read it in one sitting if I could have, but you know... parenting.

Nick Kane and Alex Creed work for two sides of the same coin, tracking down a dangerous criminal in the days before Christmas. They run into each other after tracking said criminal to an art gallery and after fighting it out to an impasse on the street, they have to decide whether or not they can trust each other and work together to capture this man. The suspense here is amazing, the two of them were constantly on the move and I was eager to learn what it was the criminal had stolen... and boy was that an interesting Christmas twist!

The other side of the story is the romance between Nick and Alex, which certainly didn't start as a romance but more of aggressive attraction. Even thought the story takes place over such a short amount of time, their relationship progression still seemed organic and natural. It was fantastic to see the two change as the book went on, and I'm not going to spoil anything here but the ending to their storyline was so perfect.

This book was a roller coaster ride, I adored every minute and I'd be happy to read more from this author (read her bio it's impressive!). Thank you NetGalley and Harlequin for the advanced copy; all opinions here are my own. If you like Christmas romances and suspense, you'll definitely want to pick this up when arrives in October.

There's something about seeing the Harlequin logo that has me one-clicking, ready to indulge in a great romance. And this author definitely brought me that. This story really got to me.
