Publisher Description
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.

Okay
Tessa Bailey is an expert at waiting about possessive, aggressive, but still gentle and kind men. This story showcased her talent.
Bowen is a deep character who is rough around the edges but has a soft heart. The man is all emotion. Sera is a naïve innocent playing a dangerous game. She has nothing to lose, but justice to gain.
Their love story happens in very short order. It’s intense, possessive and spicy.
Honestly, this book was not my favourite, but it had some good qualities- the characters have depth, the storyline, location and situations were interesting. The action was consistent with the story as a whole. Despite its good qualities it failed to capture my whole attention- I totally lost interest about 3/4 through and had to force myself to finish it. I also felt like it missed explaining so many things and left me with so many questions that pulled me out of the story.
Overall I give it a 3/5. I am interested in reading more in the series though.
