Former Navy SEAL Nixon Swagger is home. After twelve years of service and twice as many deployments, all Nix wanted was quiet. He’d sought the solace of the land he’d grown up on and found the peace he needed to silence the noise and figure out his next move. Nixon’s stay was supposed to be temporary. He wasn’t supposed to meet a feisty, head-strong woman who made his pulse race and set his body … body on fire. Falling in love hadn’t been part of his plan. Taking a government contract to stop a homegrown terrorist group hadn’t been either, but when the organization threatens to attack Philadelphia, he had no choice but to accept.McKenna Wilson was living. Every day was the same. Raising her two teenage siblings didn’t leave time for much else. Most days, she was okay with that. Then she bumped into the sexy war hero and, in an instant, her world changed. She had no idea falling for Nixon would be so dangerous. Now she was going head-to-head with the small-town’s dirty sheriff who was hell-bent on ruining Nixon and avenging a fifteen-year-old grudge. She’d lost her heart, but losing her life wasn’t part of the plan.Nixon Swagger had learned a few things as a Navy SEAL—adapt, improvise, and overcome were among the many. In the middle of an inferno, so ominous even Dante wouldn’t buy a ticket, Nixon must adapt to his new surroundings and overcome multiple threats before he loses the woman he loves.

Dirty cops, twists and turns and intrigue! What’s not to love?
I had to buy the rest of the series and can’t wait for the last one.
A new author to read! I have enjoyed Nix and Mickey, and looking forward to reading further into the Gemini series.
I really liked this book and the easily developed relationship that evolved between Nixon and Mandy. It was very natural. The plot, however, took off in new and complicated directions midway, introducing a team of strong characters.
I got hooked on the characters and read all of the books. Waiting for the last one.
Love me some riley edwards. Kept me on the edge of my seat until the end. Really love those alpha males who loves fiercely and are so protective. Would definitely recommend. Loved this book.
Romance was sweet and relationship seemed natural. Steamy but fun! Cannot wait time read the rest!
Loved it. Character transitions realistic. Not a fairy tale story. More like real life can be.
Loved this new world of Riley Edwards. I’ve never been a fan of 1st person narrative but Riley has converted me (at least for her books).
There was a lot going on in this book. She is trying to raise her sister and brother on a far far from where they lived b4 their parents died. She meets up with Nixon who is a retired Navy Seal. He helps her with he teenage kids and teaches them responsibility and gratitude while falling in love with her. There is a dangerous situation that occurs and seals their fate. Good read
Great characters….and character building….genuine and believable and stay up worthy read…..already for the next in this series….just enough hot romance and suspense……
Enjoyable book
Good romantic suspense read
Captivating
Best book I’ve read in a long time. Going to read the whole series.
great read!
The author has a way of blending each book so you always get a little of every character. This series has been so good that it makes you want to really meet the characters! I would highly recommend.
Nix and McKenna are great characters. Love the pot. She is an older sister raising her two half siblings. Nix is not who everyone claimed him to be. He is more and just the type of real man a woman hopes to find. Dependable , strong and there for you. What’s not to love in a novel that delivers all of that.
The kitchen scene brought me to tears and I’m not a crier. Way to go Ms. Edwards, loved this action filled book –oh, a little love mixed in too.
Great characters. Bought the rest of the series.
