My Review
This is my first taste of this author's more romantic, suspense side. I liked this side. This book is book five in the Psychic FBI Profiler Series. Which features not only the psychic side but also sexy men of Navy SEALs. Who doesn't love a man in uniform. Additionally, this book can be read as a stand alone story. However, I do want to mention that there are some references to it seems past events in a prior novel involving married couple, Hunter "Cookie" Knox and Fiona Storm. Yet, the references if anything helped add to this story. Hunter and Fiona made a good couple. I really experienced the love that Hunter had for Fiona as well as the need to protect her.
Speaking of Fiona. She started out a bit damaged but by the end of the story she had emerged stronger. I can't talk about this book without talking about Ryker. His psychic ability was cool. Although, if it comes with the side effects of channeling people in desperate need, I think I will pass. As much as I liked all of the characters, I could not fully commit to the story as a whole. The first half was fine, not too much happening in regards to the intensity. Luckily, I did experience a shift in the later half with this picking up. Overall, this was a good story.
