I enjoyed this second chance, Intriguing romance. I bought this at the local library book sale and I've given it a 4.5* rating. While this is not for the under 18 readers, it was full of action and heartbreak meanness. I was rooting for them to figure out who was wanting to do this to them. I figured out about the middle of the story but still wanted them to find out and save themselves. Find out for yourselves by reading this one of a kind mystery.

DESCRIPTION, NOT REVIEW: At age ten, Riley Lambert watched helplessly as her sister was abducted from her bedroom. Fifteen years later, she’s channeled the pain of her past into a career as an FBI profiler. Riley devotes her life to bringing violent criminals to justice…and secretly uses government resources to search for her sister, who was never found.

When Riley gets a call from the only man who’s ever swept her off her feet with a killer two-step and dangerous smile—ex-Navy SEAL Thayne Blackwood of Singing River, Wyoming—it stirs up dark memories. Thayne’s sister, Cheyenne, has been kidnapped. There are no leads, and the only witness is the victim’s Alzheimer’s-afflicted grandmother.

Desperate to find Cheyenne, Thayne needs Riley’s expertise. With time running short, they delve into dangerous small-town secrets while fighting against an increasingly ruthless adversary. But when her past and his present collide in a shocking revelation, can they overcome the secrets that have kept them apart?

Exciting book. It opens with Rafe as part of a rescue mission that saves Sierra from a kidnapping and explosion. We immediately see that there is chemistry between the two. Rafe desperately tries to resist, but ends up giving in a spending a hot night with her, before his guilty feelings send him running.

Two months later, Sierra is missing again. Rafe gets a panicked call from his best friend, Noah, who is also Sierra's brother. Noah asks Rafe to find her, which he does pretty quickly, only to discover that she's been injured. She and her best friend and her friend's daughter had been kidnapped, and though Sierra escaped, her friend did not. Sierra is determined to find and save her friend. She's not too happy to see him, especially after his disappearing act, but realizes that she can use his help.

I liked Sierra. She is a smart, determined and capable of much more than some others believe. She had been working as a computer specialist for the same covert group that her brother and Rafe work for, until she was suspended after her last kidnapping. Though she's always been behind the scenes in previous investigations, she refuses to step back from this one. I loved her insistence on being involved. I also liked her belief in her friend's innocence, even in the face of evidence to the contrary.

I also liked Rafe. He is strong and protective. He has been attracted to Sierra for a long time, but there's the old "bro code" obstacle of not getting involved with your best friend's sister. He gave in to her advances two months ago, but has avoided her ever since. He also feels that he is not good enough for her. He lost someone close to him and blames himself. He wants to keep her safe, but also has to admit that he can't find her friend without her.

I enjoyed seeing their relationship grow as they worked together. Sierra knows how she feels, and though cautious about risking her heart again, she wants the chance. The scenes at the rodeo were great, especially her reaction to his first ride. I loved seeing her help Rafe realize that he wants a home and family of his own. The ending was fantastic, with a bit of a twist to the big moment.

The suspense of the story was really good. With Sierra's escape from the kidnapper, it freed her to find out why they had been taken and who was behind it. Though she isn't usually a field operative, I loved seeing her make the most of the opportunities they were given. There were some very scary attempts on their lives, each one getting more intense. The closer they got to the end, the more convoluted the problem seemed. The final confrontation was really intense, with an unexpected twist to it. The secret wasn't anything like what I expected either.

10 year old little girl see's her mother brutally beaten and as her mother is dying the last words she says are Never let them inside...your heart.

Jasmine "Jazz" Parker takes those words to heart and lets them define who she has become as an adult. She is Jefferson County SWAT's only female sniper and refuses to let anyone get close to her. She is the best shot with the sniper riffle and would protect her team and the innocents with her life but keeps to herself personally.

Luke Montgomery is an ex-Army Ranger, who has now become an investigative reporter. He comes from a large family who are all in one form or another in law enforcement or the military. He also had recently found out he had a daughter when the girl's mother died. He and Jazz had a hot affair for a while until things go to emotional for Jazz and she just walked away.

There are two intersecting suspense stories going on at once - One is someone is out to ruin Jazz's career with SWAT and the other is a corruption story within the mob with possible ties to the police department that Luke is writing. These two things put both Jazz and Luke and his family in danger.

When we first meet Jazz she is a tough as nails SWAT sniper but as the story unfolds we find out about all the horrible things that happened to her as a child and with everything that is going on her wall that she had erected to protect herself comes crumbling down.

I liked all the characters in this book. I hope that the author plans to write about the rest of the Montgomery siblings in the future.
