Colton and Isabella’s story is good, a DEA undercover agent finds an innocent woman that was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Now they find themselves in circumstances they never saw coming. but somehow they manage it and in the process they find more than what they bargained for. The suspense was good and intriguing, maybe someday they can turn it into an audiobook.
