Description

About the Author A thirty-year veteran of a midsized police department, VK was a police officer by necessity (it paid the bills) and a writer by desire (it didn’t). Her career spanned numerous positions including beat officer, homicide detective, vice/narcotics lieutenant, and assistant chief of police. Now retired, she devotes her time to writing, traveling, home decorating, and volunteer work.

Features & Highlights

  • Newly promoted police captain Bennett Carlyle considers being project manager for the new district substation the way to prove her worth in the male-dominated upper ranks of the department. But when the first girl she loved returns as the architect with little understanding of the operational needs of a police station, Bennett’s career and her heart could face permanent damage. Architect Kerstin Anthony believes the new police substation will be the springboard to her own firm and the necessary resources to care for her mother. When she confronts the girl she kissed in high school, now a tantalizing police officer with unrealistic expectations about the new facility, Kerstin’s path to success becomes littered with unexpected hurdles. Along with tight deadlines, budget restraints, and architectural challenges, she has to battle both past and present feelings for the woman she was torn away from years ago.

I Did not enjoy this book

Netgalley provided me a copy of this book.

I Did not enjoy this book. It did not make me feel much or root for the characters to be together in the end. I think that my reason for not liking this book ad much is the fact that it's a romantic suspense novel. Meaning that there was another plot going on at the same time. I tend to love or hate those book and unfortunately this did not do much for me

... two main characters could have been solved quickly and easily but instead it was drawn out

I was not very impressed with this book mainly because the “problem” that stood between the two main characters could have been solved quickly and easily but instead it was drawn out. It seemed a bit ridiculous after a while. The characters didn’t have a lot of depth and seemed very flat. I also didn’t feel any chemistry or connection between the main characters.

Two women with past and present complications.

The issues, misunderstandings between the main characters could have been solved sooner, as it all is a lack of communication. I found it heartbreaking whenever Kerstin made a run for it, because she can’t seem to handle her emotions. Bennett is overly patient with her, perhaps more than she really deserves.
I, however, wish that the book had been longer and it had been a bit more depth to the characters.
