Book Description:
The killer she can't escape . . .
The heartbreak she can't forget . . .

Now, as they crack a conspiracy that leads to Boston's darkest corners, Sam and Zach must face their fears, desires, and doubts, before a hired killer gets a second shot...

My Thoughts:
I was captured right from the start! Sam is the easiest character to be sympathetic with. She has had a very devastating experience, followed by some revelations in her life, that have caused her to simply "remake" herself since Zach last saw her. She has managed to make herself into a very endearing and lovable person--but has made several enemies along the way....including some in the local police department. So.....when she is in desparte need of help, the police are not willing to give her the help. She is forced to turn to people she knew in the past who are capable of protecting her....but it may cost her her heart.....again. I was very intrigued by the whole story. I would rate this a 5/5. Definately worth going and getting for a nice, easy read!
