I have enjoyed this entire series, and this book was not an exception! Manda Collins writes such strong female characters and men who both accept and embrace them for it.

While the loss of her father led to a significant change in Jane’s circumstances, she accepted it with grace and didn’t let it change who she is. She has remained strong, proud, and compassionate, even when faces with less than kind employers.

Adrian is smart, ethical, and dedicated to his work. He believes in and respects people, though he feels bad that he wasn’t able to help Jane when her father died.

Together they renew their friendship, heal old misunderstandings, and search for a killer. (I have a lot to say about this, but don’t want to give away spoilers). The caring that always existed between them grows into love as they spend more time together.

We get to see the characters from previous books as they help the couple in their quest.

I am hoping the author continues the series.
