Summary

Patience has always been Caleb Whitetail's strength. Quiet and unassuming is what you see with the GFI investigator, but the blood boils hot right under the surface. He kept his distance for years only to see the woman who has held his attention almost lose her life not just once, but twice. He is done standing in the shadows.

Katie Acker, once a tough and athletic security specialist now struggles daily to walk. The closest to family she has are her colleagues at GFI. Especially the man who saved her life and always has her back. So when she unwittingly becomes the focus of a Mexican cartel, it's no big surprise she finds him right by her side.

With the combustive change in their deepening bond, Katie and Caleb do not see the oncoming danger - until it surrounds them.

This is the 3rd book in the Cedar Tree series, I've just listened to the audio, which I thought was great, the narrators did an excellent job. I adored Caleb's character, he is a beautiful, spiritual soul who started out contracting for Gus' investigative team, in the prologue we see that he worked with Katie on some jobs, which was a real challenge because he normally worked alone. Katie also contracted to Gus' team, she can certainly look after herself and Caleb just wants to keep her safe, so they are at loggerheads to begin with. Caleb also has to endure seeing Katie and Gus interact together and soon works out there may be some history between them. Then we jump to Chapter 1.
Whilst on a job, looking after Emma, Katie goes through a life changing event and its from this we see a remarkable change in Katie and Caleb is there with her all the way.
At first, I wasn't sure if I was going to warm to Katie, I had my hackles up from book 1. (Yes, you need to read it!) But in the end, Caleb and Katie are my two down right favs out of this Cedar Tree group of friends. Throw in suspense, a brother and a pet and you get down right gooey! Loved it. Definitely worth a listen!

Great author, awesome series!!
