I absolutely loved Grant and Laney as a couple. Neither is a pushover and their chemistry was off the charts. But I also loved Laney individually too. I'm a sucker for a strong female character and I loved how she stood up for herself.
The suspense part of this book was very well done. I did figure out a couple parts but overall was kept on the edge of my seat. The protective retired K9 dog was a bonus.
I'm excited to read the next book in the series.

There are a lot of plots and characters that I would have liked to delve into more, for example, how Waz knew of Laney’s background and Hadley’s relationship with her family. Hopefully, more of that will come out in the next books in the series. Ace is such an enigma so fingers crossed we find out more about him.
There were some mistakes that made some scenes slightly confusing, switching from Laney to Grant as narrator for a sentence or two, for example. Editorial mistakes happen but there were several so definitely became noticeable.

That being said, I liked how everything tied together at the end, the chemistry between the leads was great, the Foxx family was a lot of fun, and I learned some neat things about bourbon!
