Love and Murder #2
Love and Pain
Sequel to Love and Murder
After their too-thrilling courtship that included capturing his former lover's killer, Jake Chandler has started a new life for himself with FBI agent Xavier. Living together is wonderful, but moving to Washington D.C. has resulted in temporary jobs that don’t last long. When Jake finally lucks out on a too-good-to-be-true position with a big law firm, Xavier suspects Jake’s new boss is crooked.
With some sleuthing, snooping, and close calls, Jake gets deeper into trouble at work, and conflicts with Xavier make his world start to crumble. When a key witness is shot to death in front of Jake, they both begin to realize how high the stakes are. Can Jake and Xavier get through these threats and find happiness with each other?

Great story!
I loved this second story in Jake and Xavier's life. The guys have moved to DC, Ivan is in Leavenworth and things have settled down somewhat. That is short lived though as Jake is offered a job in a law firm that is under investigation by the feds. Also, Ivan reaches out from his cell to his brother Dmitri, and a hit is out on Jake.
Jake once again is in the middle of all this, another friend is killed and Xavier puts the bureau before his relationship with Jake.
Jake is ready to run, but Xavier finds him and they finally get their happy happy.
I really enjoyed the writing style. Well paced and definitely keeps you invested in the characters. Storyline was well done and thought out, everything flowed well and no plot holes anywhere.

I loved the sequel to Love & Murder. I love Jake and Xavier. It was very hard to put both of these books down. Both stories were great! Can't wait for more!
Just read again for the third time. It was just as good as the first time!
