Reviews:
"...So the hero has a little mystery…all the better to keep this one interesting story. Add to that a smart and sassy heroine who gives her all for what she believes in and you have a great combination. Couple that with a story that goes a long way in keeping the reader engaged and here is a book well worth picking up."
"...The conflict between David and Stephanie is strong coming out of the gate and I applaud how well Ms. DeGolier gets them through their trials. She has also created some memorable secondary characters and weaves their stories with skill through the book. I was very impressed with this story and hope Ms. DeGolier writes more in this genre."
Excerpt:
From the doorway, a short, thick man wearing green scrubs blocked David's view of Stephanie's face though he could see her arm. A vial attached to a port at the base of the IV was filling with blood. More startling was the rail-thin teenage boy who was supporting a golf-bag sized camera on his shoulder and appeared to be filming. To David, the long-haired kid looked like a throw back to the sex, drugs and rock-n-roll days.
