I recieved this book for free in exchange for my honest review. I am on Virginia's street team, however this doesn't sway my opinion. I judge the book for book sake.  From the back of the book: When Blake Michaels's cover as a local cop is blown and a corrupt officer attempts to kill him, he's forced to go on the run. Under his protection is Holly Mathis, also a target for what she may know about her late husband's investigation into corruption on the police force. Blake can't complete his assignment without help from the beautiful widow, but getting close to a woman again is out of the question. Trapped inside the town limits by police barricades, Blake won't surrender the mission until he finds the source of the deadly drug ring that brought him here. But as he circles closer to his target, can he get his man—and save his woman—without sacrificing his own life? My thoughts on Virginia Vaughan: She is such a down to earth woman whose faith rings l...
