Thoroughly enjoyed this nicely written, romantic suspense set in Kentucky and I hope there will be a sequel...
Luke was a wonderful character, former Special Forces, now doctor and how he slowly managed to get under Devin's skin was very touching. Devin was a 26 year-old social worker with an awful lot of bad history on her plate. She and Luke ran into each other at the hospital from time-to-time...
The story started out kind of slow, building up the necessary history about Luke and his twin brother, Quinn. It jumps 20 years, then another 6 years before chapter 2; however, it set the stage for the rest of the book. I wasn't sure where it was all headed and was pleasantly surprised that I was surprised. I like that! The emotional turmoil the two main characters (and Quinn) put me through was gut wrenching. I felt their pain.
The suspense was excellent. The romance was hot and romantic. There were a few parts I would have liked to move a tad faster and a few parts that were skipped over that I would like to have read about, but what the heck. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
