A hot-shot rookie cop let the criminal mastermind get away, but in the rush, Logan left his daughter at the scene.

Now, Cal is the leader of an elite, police task force dedicated to hunting the bank robber, but for five long years, Logan has evaded capture.
When he rear-ends a car while distracted by his frustrating ex, Cal and Mila are thrown headfirst into a maelstrom of events that brings them face to face with the man they both fear.

Really cool book.
This story had a little bit of everything: suspense, romance, action. It was a slow burn romance, with a little too much push and pull (mostly from the heroine), but it was captivating.
I really liked how flawed the characters are, that made them more relatable and believable.
The story behind it all (the investigation about a dangerous criminal) was enticing and the secondary characters were enthralling.
Who doesn’t love sexy men in uniform?
The next books sound promising.
This is a very entertaining mystery/romance/suspense. The storyline drew me in at the beginning and kept my interest until the end. It’s action packed and kept me guessing all the way through. Cal and Mila are intriguing characters and their chemistry is sizzling hot. I really enjoyed the compelling storyline. I received a complimentary copy of this book from BookSirens and this is my honest review
I’d give this book somewhere between 3.5 and 4 stars. If you like romantic suspense, which is heavy on the suspense, then you might want to give Collision a try. I’ve never read this author and found the story line kept me on the edge of my seat. The two main characters of Cal and Mila are really enjoyable and likeable from the start. Their romance is a slow burn, even though the attraction is instantaneous. I also liked the secondary characters of Cal’s task force team. The shining light was 9 yr old Ashley who is caught in the middle of the criminal element of the story. Only a little girl could get big tough men to play dress up. Those scenes were adorable and broke the tension.
I can’t give the book a full 4 or 5 rating because some parts didn’t seem to go into enough detail or a piece seemed to be missing. It didn’t hinder the outcome, but still had me scratching my head a bit
Overall, it’s a good book with a good cat and mouse game.
While this was not my time reading this author, it was the first of her police procedural stories I have tried, and I was not disappointed. Aves did a great job building suspense and while the plot twist did not blindside me, it was still nail-biting enough to keep me turning the page and dreading the outcome. The chemistry between Cal and Mila was a curious mix of steamy tension and explosive outbursts spurred on by their own insecurities, producing an intriguing romance tale.
There were a few moments in the book that confused me, generally where I was unsure who was saying what because of the way Aves split the dialogue from the action. Other than that, I enjoyed the novel and look forward to reading more of the series. I recommend this one for all lovers of romantic suspense.
3.5 STARS
Five years ago, Mila was working in a bank when it was robbed. The leader of the group, Wayde Logan, killed one of her co-workers. A hot-shot rookie cop let the criminal mastermind get away, but in the rush, Logan left his daughter at the scene.
Nightmares of that time have plagued Mila since then. She’s never forgotten what Logan looked like .. and he’s never been caught. And she knows he’s out there just waiting to get rid of all the witnesses.
Callum Dane is the leader of an elite, police task force dedicated to hunting the bank robber, but for five long years, Logan has evaded capture. Dane was the hot-shot rookie who let him get away.
Callum and Mila meet when he accidentally rear-ends her car. The attraction is immediate and they both soon find out they have the same enemy.
The balance between romance and suspense is nicely balanced. WARNING: The intimate moments are graphic and prolonged. The suspense part begins on the very first page and maintains until the very unexpected, violent ending.
Many thanks to the author / Booksirens for the digital copy of this Romantic Suspense. Read and reviewed voluntarily, opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.
You have our FMC, Mila. She was held up during a bank robbery. She witnessed tragedy when her coworker and friend got killed. Due to a mistake, made by a rookie cop, the thief got away. Fast forward 5 years, it was fate that she collided with that same cop.
Since that day, Callium or Cal, has been after this thief for 5 years. When he met Mila, he fell hard. When he realizes that Mila was that bank teller, he will stop at nothing to keep her safe.
This is my first story by Sofia Aves. It was such a fantastic story. If you enjoy crime/dramas with romance, then this one is for you.
What can I say! This book drew me in from the beginning! It’s filled with all the things any girl and book lover could imagine, sex, lies, lust and more!
There was never a dull moment! Just when I thought I had it all figured out…BAM! I was so wrong!
Cal and Mila met under different circumstances. He knew who she was but to her, he was a very handsome guy that she could easily fall for. Both were haunted by their own demons but together, could they figure out a way through all the darkness they have endured?
Sofia definitely knows how to keep her readers on their toes with mind blowing plots, twists, and turns at almost every corner. I’m in love with book and what’s to come. It’s the beginning of something special!
To find out more…join me and start this amazingly hot like fire series! On to the next book!
***3.5 stars***
This story kicked into the action from the first page.
There was a lot going on but as the story progressed everything started to make sense.
There was chemistry between the two main characters in the story but what stood out for me was the suspense and angst of the plot.
I kept wondering, where’s Logan(the villain of the story)? Is he coming after the Cal? Mila? Both? Or someone else? Is anyone safe? Who will survive in the end???
Overall this was a story that kept me curious but I just wanted Mila and Cal to act on their chemistry, there were so many opportunities but wasn’t taken until later in the story.
There were really great intense parts but then other parts seemed to drag a little.
Maybe to build anticipation but didn’t quite hit the mark with me
The story introduces the secondary characters perfectly and I look forward to reading more books in this series
This is an intense story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Mila’s world turned upside down when the bank was robbed and she lost her friend. They never caught the man but the hot shot cop at the time never gave up and things are about to take a turn that will set actions in motion! If you love police romance and alpha men that don’t stop until the get their bad guy, you are going to love this one.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
“His obsession was her- his weakness. But no more…”
This one is one hell of a steamy police chase!!! This is my first book by Sofia Aves, I know she doesn’t have so many books out, but let me tell you if this is how the rest of them are going to be, well I am hooked to her books for a long time.
After the robbery, everything changed, and Mila has been looking over her shoulder for a long time, she feels eyes on her everywhere and the only way she can find peace is while painting. But her life is about to change thanks to Cal, she feels safe whit him, but nothing is perfect and there must be something beneath the surface.
Cal has been after Logan for years, the bank robber that changed so many lives is still out, and he is not going to rest until Logan is behind bars. But after one incident with Mila, he knows that he has to look after her but its not that easy when she is what every man dreams about.
I really enjoyed this book, so naturally I’ll be reading the next on the Blue Blooded Brothers series, steamy and page-turner… I know THAT will be waiting for me on the next books.
