RATING: 5 out of 5 Stars
SECONDS (The Salvation Society Series) by Freya Barker is a new book in Corinne Michaels’ Salvation Society world series featuring multiple authors. This series is filled with Navy SEALs, CIA operatives, strong heroines, suspense, action, romance and so much more! Each romantic suspense in the series stands on its own.
Reagan is a smart and determined criminal defense lawyer. After leaving a large firm with her paralegal, Sally, she is now building her own practice from scratch. One bad decision she is working to overcome is an ex in the prosecutor’s office, who has made it his main objective is to defeat her every time they sit opposite each other in court.
Reagan’s office shares a building with Callum McGregor’s Bail Bond office. Cal is the boss in an office of bounty hunters, Reagan’s landlord and her older brother’s friend. When Cal finally meets Reagan, it is an irresistible attraction. He knows the code of not touching a friend’s sister, but he is 45 and has never felt this attraction with any other woman.
Cal may be an alpha bounty hunter, but he needs Reagan’s professional expertise the moment he returns from returning a skip and run who accuses him of sexual abuse. As Cal and Reagan work together to uncover the reason Cal is being set up, they do not realize that another danger is waiting for the chance to destroy Reagan.
Once again, I can state that I have never read a Freya Barker contemporary romance/romantic suspense that I have not loved! Her mature characters are strong, accomplished and ready for that perfect mate and their HEA. Cal and Reagan spontaneously combust no matter how hard Reagan tries to remain professional and I loved it. The romance and suspense plots are perfectly balanced and intertwined and kept me turning the pages.
I highly recommend this book and author! I am looking forward to checking out the other books in the Salvation Society world.
