Good book that literally started with a bang and never let up. While sightseeing, FBI agent Miguel's father, Robert, struck up a conversation with travel blogger Maisy. During one of their stops, a bomber grabbed Robert, snapping a bomb collar around his neck and taking him hostage. A tense confrontation and a nearby explosion meant the bomber got away. Meanwhile, Maisy stayed right with Robert while the bomb squad defused the collar bomb. As a witness who also saw the bomber, Maisy went into protective custody with Robert. He stayed in a hotel under guard, while Maisy stayed with Miguel in his apartment.
I found it interesting that Maisy stayed at the apartment and not Miguel's dad. The connection between Miguel and Maisy was evident from the start. Something about her got under his skin and roused his protectiveness. Mentally, Miguel fights the connection, not wanting to get involved in a relationship. An FBI agent herself, Miguel's mother died in the line of duty, and he never wants to put someone through that agony. He also has a job to do, and Maisy is a distraction he can't afford.
Maisy feels the connection as strongly as Miguel does. Part of her resists the attraction as she has plans for her future that don't include a relationship with anyone. But because of her past, Maisy understands the importance of Miguel's work. Even when she worries about him, she hides her fears and encourages him in his work. An unexpected link between Maisy's past and the current case created a situation where she had to face that past. I loved Miguel's support and the strength it gave her to make it through the situation.
I loved watching the relationship develop. Miguel and Maisy's concern for each other was sweet, and I enjoyed seeing them take care of one another. I laughed at the reactions of Miguel's BAU teammates who, accustomed to his solitary lifestyle, raised eyebrows at his overt affection for Maisy. The more time they spent together, the more Miguel wanted her in his life. As Maisy's feelings for Miguel grew, she didn't look forward to the end of the case and their inevitable parting. I loved the ending and the drama-free but emotional admission of their feelings for each other. Where it happened was especially appropriate.
The suspense of the story kept me glued to the pages from beginning to end. The first bombing raised questions in Miguel's mind and partially affected the direction of the investigation. An escalation in attacks increased the tension and also brought new leads to light. I agreed with Miguel's suspicion of a mastermind behind the attacks and who it was. I loved seeing the BAU's teamwork and dedication as they drew the net tighter. The intensity of the final confrontation kept me hooked until it was over.

We open right into action. Bomb. Threats. Explosions. We follow clues and hunt possible suspects. Interrogations. Of course a romance.
Miguel was a character that was easy to root for. Maisey was tougher to get a fix on. You want to think she’s playing them or lying or maybe she isn’t.
If you like the TV series, Criminal Minds, you like this.

This one piqued my interest from the start. The author wasted no time getting into the action, and weaving her web of intrigue and romance. I loved getting to know all the characters, and reading about them.

I had hoped Harlequins had improved over the years, but apparently they have not. I did enjoy the modern FBI/BAU mystery, but the romance was tedious and unrealistic. I'm not really the intended audience, however, not really enjoying the romance genre in general.

Who is doing the bombing??? Or, is it more than one person??? Is someone pulling the puppet’s strings??? I enjoyed the story and recommend the book.

Enjoyable, flows very well. Category Romances are so...comforting to me.
There is action, adventure, and the good guys are good. This starts off really strong and keeps going. Law Enforcement romances are not really my thing, but this author seems to write in a lot of different subgenres and I would definitely be interested in reading more of her work.
