   None No current Talk conversations about this book.  jetangen4571 | Sep 3, 2023 |   Now that that's out of the way... I've never read a series with a couple this intense - in the worst and best ways imaginable. The one that comes closest is Mary Calmes's Marshals series (first one is All Kinds Of Tied Down). The difference is, both Ellery and Jackson are wickedly intense, their actions tied thoroughly to their personalities and pasts. The complications Jackson causes are ones he cannot help, so you read teeth bared, understanding but horrified, sharing Ellery's fear and anger... Yeah. The supporting cast is fantastic. The bad people are omg awful. The hearts of these two guys take hits and come out fighting. That's what hauled me into this series to begin with. You'll fall in love as you're cringing or crying or laughing. Read this series. I've just started the (prequel) story of Sonny and Ace, (Racing for the Sun), but I paused to write this review at the end of Red Fish, Dead Fish and before the (four) Accompanying Stories, two of which are with Sonny and Ace. I'm savoring these; the next book in the Fish Out of Water series isn't out yet. Read that in a whining tone, please.

They must work together to stop a psychopath-and save each other. Two months ago Jackson Rivers got shot while trying to save Ellery Cramer's life. Not only is Jackson still suffering from his wounds, the triggerman remains at large-and the body count is mounting. Jackson and Ellery have been trying to track down Tim Owens since Jackson got out of the hospital, but Owens's time as a member of the department makes the DA reluctant to turn over any stones. When Owens starts going after people Jackson knows, Ellery's instincts hit red alert. Hurt in a scuffle with drug-dealing squatters and trying damned hard not to grieve for a childhood spent in hell, Jackson is weak and vulnerable when Owens strikes. Jackson gets away, but the fallout from the encounter might kill him. It's not doing Ellery any favors either. When a police detective is abducted-and Jackson and Ellery hold the key to finding her-Ellery finds out exactly what he's made of. He's not the corporate shark who believes in winning at all costs; he's the frightened lover trying to keep the man he cares for from self-destructing in his own valor.

I suspect that this could stand alone, but it is so intense and filled with comic relief that it is addictive. Again with the erotica and violence, but both are so entwined with reality. I have, indeed become addicted to this series.
And the narration by voice actor Greg Tremblay knocks it up more than a notch! (
