My Thoughts:
I liked this book. Gwen witnesses a body being dumped in a river. From then on, she becomes a witness that the killer is determined to take care of. She never expects to be rescued by the last man she ever wanted to see again, Dean Harwell. Gwen's ex-husband is determined to keep her safe and would love to have a chance to make things right between them. The problems multiply and both Dean and Gwen have done wrong in the past but can they forgive each other and move forward?
Gwen and Dean are good characters. I enjoyed the way the author didn't just have them fall together but they had to work through their issues. The author didn't shy away from tough issues either, I thought she handled the whole situation really well. There was action throughout and while I did figure out who the bad guy was, I wasn't certain of the why until the end.
It was a 3/5 for me. The book is a good, quick read and I loved the ending!
