She's gone rogue.

Seraphina Newsom isn't looking for vengeance...she wants justice. Three years ago, Sera's brother was ruthlessly gunned down by one of Brooklyn's most dangerous mob kingpins. The investigation has stalled out, deemed "too dangerous" by the police commissioner. So to track down the evidence she needs to take down her brother's killer, Sera turns in her hospital scrubs, joins the NYPD, and goes undercover. Unsanctioned. Alone.

He'll live to keep her safe.

With his father behind bars, Bowen Driscol has reluctantly taken over his family's sprawling South Brooklyn crime operation. New York's finest have other plans. By threatening the safety of his sister, they "convince" Bowen to extricate a rogue cop who's in over her head. But when he meets Sera and feels that deep, damning shiver of desire course through him, Bowen knows there's only one way to keep her safe without blowing either of their covers...by claiming her as his own.

The negative reviews delayed my starting this one, but I’m so glad I decided to randomly play it on a whim. I regret waiting so long. Outstanding performance by the narrator, fast-paced story, sexy characters and drama... this one has it all. Don’t be put off by a few bad reviews. This is one of the better novels of this genre. I hardly pressed pause on this late night listen. It’s that good.

Exceptional Listen!

I haven’t read any books by Tessa before and what an intro to her writing. I loved this gritty “undercover cop falls in love with the criminal” romance. And Jill absolutely smashed the narration. I don’t usually enjoy solo narration or third-person POVs, but this book was fabulous!

Get ready to get invested in a cr!minal no less. I fell for Bowen fast, a it like Seraphina. He’s kind of irresistible with his painting and sad backstory.

The book is action-packed and fast-paced. But we still get plenty of character development. I love how we see the layers of Bowen unfolding. And Seraphina’s morals are tested when she falls for him hard and fast.

This book was just what I needed. I can’t recommend it enough, and I’ll definitely be doing more from this series. Jill took this story to the next level with her expert narration. Ten out of ten would definitely recommend!

An original story with great solo narration.

This is the first book I’ve listened to from Tessa Bailey and I loved it! It made me laugh, cry, and HOT!All while I was on the edge of my seat. I love Jill Redfields narration. She does a great job bringing the characters to life and she draws you in to a whole different world. I’m hoping book 2 is just as good if not better.

LOVED IT!
