"I know when a man's heart belongs elsewhere." Denver Hayes is almost as proud to be a NYPD detective as he is of his daughter, though he and her mother divorced three years ago. He's been partners and best friends with Eugenio for years. Through thick and thin, they always have each other's backs, and there's no one else Denver trusts more with his life. But Denver's desire for more than a bromance with his partner just won't go away. You can't just use me like that. Detective Eugenio Mendes is a tough cop who likes gallows humor but loves his expressive, outgoing family - and he counts his cop partner, Denver, as family, too. He's been best friends with Denver for so long that he's never considered pursuing something more...besides which, he's straight. Still, there's something different about their relationship. If only he could figure out what it is. There was murder in his eyes. When Eugenio's cousin comes to them bruised and desperate for help, the detectives spring into action. The tension of their job leads to a sudden passion between them that they never saw coming. Can they get past the confusion and lust to become something more? Or will the harsh reality of this case and Internal Affairs destroy their future together as partners in every sense?… (more)

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review

Cops - check
Partners - check
Best Friends - check
Falling in love - *sigh*

I really loved the dynamics between Denver and Eugenio. They truly knew each other, had each others back, and supported each other no matter what. Denver had been crushing on Eugenio for quite a few months (after a scary on the job incident), but Eugenio was clueless and thought he was straight. It wasn't until one of his dates points out that he can't stop talking about Denver that Eugenio starts to realize that there sometimes is a fine line between platonic love and romantic love. Once he opened himself up to the possibility of happiness with Denver, he found contentment that he hadn't experienced before.

I loved Denver's ex-wife and the relationship they had while co-parenting Pepper. It was refreshing to see parents put their children first, support each other, and not have any evil judgement for decisions they make. They accepted each other and that they were better off as friends/parents. The relationship was very healthy.

I really, really enjoyed this! ( )
